Lance Squire 3000: Rusty Ladder Hooks!

My "Pin Ring & Wire Tethers" are looking really bad and I'd like to replace them.. Anyone know where I can order nice shiny new ones???

  • I got mine at West marine. Look also in the sailboat hardware section. I've found a few useful things there also.

    Their prices have long faded away while the parts are still nice and shiney new.
  • Hey I found some Chinese issues on ebay that might work.. says 1/4" pins.. got to go check... hole size..?
  • Your very welcome. anytime there is aluminum there needs to be stainless hardware with it or you get major electrolisys (rust) with it.

    Anytime I want good stainless I carry a magnet with me to see if the stainless has any iron in it. Better stainless has no magnetic quality. Ok quality ss has very little but poor stuff attracts all too well.
