EZ Dock is built for the water enthusiast, and this male dock connector is the perfect set-it-and-forget-it fastener to keep your modular dock afloat regardless of the weather. EZ Dock is a convenient system of polyethylene modular docks designed to maximize convenience and durability for hobbyists and professionals. Water lovers can mix and match sections to configure their floating dock to virtually any size with female coupler ports spaced 19.5" apart around the perimeter. Durable male dock connectors keep the system's sections and accessories stable. These heavy-duty floating dock connectors use recycled tire rubber to ensure the materials resist wear and tear, even in corrosive and high-tension environments. Each coupler offers a secure connection that slips under extreme stress. These floating dock parts have a "Dog Bone" shape designed to disconnect in the harshest weather conditions before the plastic dock snaps or sustains other damage. The male-type half-coupler can also withstand a pullout force of no less than 2,500 pounds before it fails. Then, EZ Dock owners can simply replace the couplers instead of repairing the dock itself. Traditional floating dock hardware has a rigid frame and decking on top connected by nuts, but this design can cause serious breakage when the dock is under stress. When you opt for a modular design secured by dock couplers, your system has increased flexibility and shock absorption. The coupler is also easy to install with a 0.5" x 13" bolt and nut. The coupler is keyed and has a matching keyed rod assembly. Simply insert the rod and tap it in with the hammer. One coupler goes on both sides of the EZ Dock module, and the nut and driver hold them in place. The EZ Dock floating dock connector is a powerful, flexible and reliable solution to secure your modular dock and give you peace of mind.
