An angled mounting solution designed to compensate for sloped surfaces on boats, specifically when installing hardtops. The ‘4deg’ denotes a four-degree angle correction. This product ensures that the hardtop is level and properly aligned, regardless of the deck’s inclination. For instance, if a boat’s roof has a slight downward slope towards the bow, this item is employed to bring the hardtop to a perfectly horizontal plane.
Proper alignment is crucial for several reasons. It enhances the structural integrity of the installation, preventing undue stress on the hardtop and mounting hardware. A level hardtop also improves aesthetics and functionality, ensuring proper drainage and preventing water pooling. Historically, shimming and custom fabrication were required to achieve this; this standardized solution streamlines the installation process, saving time and labor.
