The simple truth is that salt can be highly corrosive to metal when exposure lasts for an extended period of time. So, the more you tow around it, the more you need to protect your trailer from it.
The TUFFPLATE finish on this jack helps to ensure that it doesn't end up looking like the one pictured above. TUFFPLATE offers 3 layers of corrosion protection. The first layer is a specially formulated zinc finish. The second layer is chromate. Finally, a sealer puts a third barrier between the jack's gleaming good looks and anything that can contribute to rust, like freshwater or even saltwater exposure.
Rust-resistant coatings are graded according to a salt spray rating. Basically, this rating shows the amount of time it takes for a material to show signs of corrosion when exposed to pure, continuous salt spray. Zinc plating typically begins to deteriorate after about 100 hours. Dacromet usually lasts for around 300 to 400 hours. Dutton-Lainson's TUFFPLATE finish lasted nearly 500 hours in the salt spray test before the first appearance of rust (about 30% longer than a traditional powder coat finish). As for the first appearance of white corrosion, it performed about as well as typical zinc finishes.
The environment this test creates is much harsher than anything you'll ever experience in your journeys, but it provides a testament to how well this jack resists rust and corrosion.
A trailer jack lifts your trailer high enough at the tongue to allow you to couple it with your vehicle. Usually, your tongue weight is about 10-15% of your gross trailer weight (GTW). For example, a 10,000-lb trailer has a tongue weight of 1,000 lbs to 1,500 lbs. To raise the tongue of a trailer this size, you'd need a jack that can handle a static load of no less than 1,500 lbs. And, yes, it's okay to have a jack with a weight rating that is higher than your trailer's tongue weight. In fact, a jack with a higher capacity should operate more efficiently, allowing you to spend less time cranking and more time fishing.

After 9 months of searching for a replacement jack (and 3 jack circumference sizes that did not work)for our 2004 Viking Epic popup camper, this one fits! Its perfect! Thank you! Very happy!
I would only say that the retracted "up" position of the jack does NOT have enough ground clearance , absent the wheel, to guarantee there is NO contact with concrete when entering/exiting a sloped concrete driveway.
Does whats its supposed to.
The trailer jack for Our old (1996) tent trailer was received in a timely manner in good condition. It was easy to install and appears to work well. Very easy to operate and good instructions were included.
This jack is the perfect fit for our trailer with a 2" hole. etrailer.com had all the details listed (not like other sites) so that I could purchase with confidence. Strong jack with lock on (pin) wheel. etrailer.com is my new go to site for trailer needs.
Exactly what I was looking for. A jack that has a 2-inch outer diameter.
The Jack was easy to install and etrailer was the only place I could find the right one to fit my very old (1999) tent trailer.
it has been doing fine with no problem
Once I modified my camper tongue, the jack fit and operated flawlessly.
Most 1000 lb jacks are too wide for older camper trailers like mine. This was the only option i could find with a diameter of 2 inches! Took some elbow greasr, but once it went in the rest was easy and the included hardware worked very well. I would recommend adding 3-6 washers as they're not included and make a difference. It cranks clean and smooth! Great product so far. Customer service was very active and helpful in making sure I got what I needed and there were no issues. Odelia was very helpful! Thank you etrailer!
Exactly what I needed super easy to ins tall.
The trailer jack was easy to install and works great. The removable foot is very convenient.
Unfortunately my initial search for a replacement for the Atwood Model 80274 suggested the Pro Series 2000 LB jack. But trying to install that jack I found it was too big. However talking directly to customer service they were able to direct me to thing model jack which was a direct replacement that I needed. They took back the wrong jack with no problems.
This was a good replacement for the original on our vintage camper. Pretty simple - just used a grinder to remove the welded on old one, and bolts to attach the new.
Once again, etrailer impresses me. Ordered my jack stand on Friday and it arrived on Saturday. What great service!
*Although I have not installed the trailer jack yet it looks like a direct replacement for the original one on my boat trailer. The wheel that goes with the jack definitely looks like a better fit than original.
*The electrical 4 conductor plug set... I'm using for a quick disconnect for a third

Quality product that fit perfectly! I am a frequent customer of etrailer and am always satisfied.
This trailer Jack has all the capacity and lift height I need. It cranks easy, has a nice finish and in my opinion, of good quality.
This was supposed to be powder-coated. It was obviously spray painted and done very poorly. There are runs all over it. I think the manufacturer found this lying around and decided to touch it up and ship it. In fact I think they put it in the box still wet with paint. For the extra money made in the USA I was very disappointed. It will be going back and we'll see if the next one has better quality control. The mechanism itself seemed very robust.
The service was great. It shipped quickly and I received what I ordered. The product seems heavy duty as I was expecting. The action of the jack feels appropriate and only time will tell if I truely got what I paid for. I haven't had a chance to try raising the trailer while it was loaded to really know if it is truely the heavy duty jack that I needed. I will keep this email message and try to remember to let you know how I feel about your merchandise. Thank you for your interest.
