Frequently Asked Questions

Will this D-ring rattle while the boat is in motion?
No. The folding pad eye features a precision-engineered friction-hinge mechanism that maintains tension on the ring, keeping it securely flush against the deck even in high-vibration environments.
Is this hardware suitable for permanent salt-water exposure?
Yes. This product is manufactured from high-nickel AISI 316 stainless steel, specifically chosen for its superior resistance to chloride-induced pitting compared to standard 304 grade steel.
Does the folding design create a tripping hazard on the deck?
Actually, it prevents them. The low-profile, flush-mount design allows the ring to fold completely down when not in use, creating a smooth surface that eliminates the snags and tripping hazards associated with fixed U-bolts.

Our Roots

Hong Kong Based, 8 Years of Expertise

The story of AirowMarine began eight years ago. Headquartered in Hong Kong, we have been dedicated to the global operation and brand building of marine accessories. These eight years of experience have taught us that on the unpredictable sea, every single component carries the trust and safety of the boat owner.

Supply Chain

Invested Factories in Mainland China

To ensure our products withstand extreme environments, we are more than just a bridge for trade. AirowMarine has invested in its own manufacturing facilities in Mainland China. Leveraging the region's mature and efficient industrial supply chain, we are deeply involved in the entire process—from raw material selection and precision machining to final assembly. We avoid exaggerated claims; instead, through professional logistics and rigorous quality control, we ensure every product delivered to you meets high nautical-grade standards.

Currently, AirowMarine is continuously optimizing our packaging solutions: we maximize the reduction of single-use plastics in our packaging and shipping processes, using recyclable paper-based cushioning materials whenever possible. Our products are built to power your voyage, while our packaging is designed to protect the purity of the blue sea.
