Beckson Smooth 6" Screw-Out Marine Deck Plates
Beckson Smooth 6" Screw-Out Marine Deck Plates, Beckson 6" Deck Plate- Screw DownThough deck plates are no new invention, Beckson was the first to conquer all three safety features. First, a cover that would not open unexpectedly. Second, maximum water tightness. Third, prevent jamming closed or cross- threading that would prevent a cover from being closed.The Beckson Screw-Out Plate was designed to provide access without the use of tools, with a single start, non-jamming (no cross-thread), extra strong, self-cleaning buttress thread. They incorporate a self-aligning center and an innovative gasket to assure a watertight seal. A patented back-up sealing wall leaves the plate waterproof, even if the gasket is removed.A screw-out plate should be used in compartments where a change in air pressure due to temperature or oil canning can occur. Deck plates also are used for access, inspection, and clean out for tanks and compartments, or just as a general access for shut-off valves or back- fastenings. Our clear center plates permit observation of controls or gauges and visual inspection without the necessity of removing the plate.Features: DP60-B: Black Rim/ Black, Smooth Center; DP60-W: White Rim/ White, Smooth Center; DP60-W-C: White Rim/ Clear, Smooth Center; Outside Diameter: 8 1/8" (20.6 cm); Inside Diameter: 6" (15.2 cm); Hole Cut: 6 1/2" (16.5 cm); Thin rim OD is 7.50";
