Will Galvanized Steel Bolster Brackets # CE10192GA-4 from CE Smith Hold Up in Salt Water Conditions
Question:
Are these Bolster/bunk bracket heavy duty bracket? Will they hold up in salt water on a 22, 6000 lbs boat?
asked by: Paul
Expert Reply:
All of the boat trailer bolster brackets that we offer, such as # CE10002G-4 and the set you referenced # CE10192GA-4, are made of galvanized steel. This zinc coating helps resists salt water corrosion in such environments. These brackets do not carry a specific salt-spray rating but they can be kept in best shape with a regular fresh-water rinse (as will your boat, of course) to remove the salt and help reduce corrosive effects.
