The Fulton Bolt-Thru Swivel Marine Jack w/ Caster # FXP10 and Fulton Round, Snap-Ring Swivel Marine Jack # FTJ12000101 are very similar in many ways. They both have a 2" diameter outer body, are side wind, have 10" of lift, a 6" wheel, are rated for 1,200lbs, fit up to a 3" wide and 5" tall frame, and have a zinc coating for corrosion resistance.

The differences between the jacks is the # FTJ12000101 has a retracted height of 13" when the jack is positioned vertically. This is the height from the center of the jack mounting plate to the bottom of the wheel. The jack is 11" tall from the center of the mounting plate to the top of the jack. This is important when positioning the jack for any clearance issues. The jack has a Limited 3-year warranty and is held together at the mounting bracket by a snap ring.

The Jack # FXP10 has a retracted height of 14-1/2". Again this is from the center of the mounting bracket to the bottom of the wheel. It is then 10-1/2" to the top of the jack from the center of the mounting bracket. This jack has a limited 5 year warranty and uses a bolt-thru mount that provides minimum deflection and maximum support.
