New hardware makes deploying a Bimini a snap

by Accon Marine 21 Oct 2021 15:22 PDT

As outdoor fabrics shrink or stretch, biminis and sunshades can be difficult to deploy. With the new 415-TB Bimini Release from Accon Marine, the top straps become adjustable for a perfectly snug fit. And when it's time to stow the device, they pop out of the base with the slide of a button.

Unlike some marine shade solutions that require screws, pins or sewing hardware onto the webbing, the bimini-side of the two-piece 415-TB fitting installs quickly. The strap weaves through a knurled bar slide and is pulled to tighten. To use, it's simply snapped into the base. A sliding button on the hardware makes for one-handed removal; strap tension can be loosened to aid the process. The device accommodates webbing up to 25mm W.

The Accon Marine 415-TB Bimini Release is built from polished 316 stainless steel. The low-profile surface-mount base installs with two #10 screws; a cutout isn't needed. Compact, the hardware is only 91.4mm L x 30.4mm W x 13.7mm H. The strap fitting is available separately to upgrade an existing Accon Marine 415 Quick Release Hinge for Straps. It also works with any 401-Series Accon Bimini Hinge Base.
