❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Marine Cross Bollards
What is the difference between a 304 and a 316 stainless steel bollard?
316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, which makes it far more resistant to chloride corrosion from saltwater, ideal for marine environments. 304 is more economical but less suited for long-term exposure to salt or harsh chemicals. For boats, docks, and saltwater applications, 316 is the recommended choice.
How do I choose the right size bollard for my boat?
For small boats under 20 feet, a small 62mm or 80mm single cross bollard is sufficient for tying off dock lines. For medium-sized boats (20-30 feet), a 100mm to 135mm single cross provides a good balance. For larger yachts or commercial docks, double cross or heavy tube-style bollards provide the necessary holding power and line capacity.
Does the bollard come with mounting hardware?
No, mounting hardware is not included with the bollard. You will need to purchase marine-grade stainless steel bolts or lag screws suitable for your deck material. We recommend applying a marine sealant to the base before installation to ensure a watertight seal.
What is the purpose of the different styles: single cross, double cross, and tube style?
Single cross bollards are the most common and versatile, great for general mooring. Double cross bollards provide more length for multiple lines or for securing lines around the crossbar. Tube-style bollards, often called drum bollards, feature a simple cylindrical post with a horizontal bar, ideal for quick line handling and for use with mooring ropes that require a smooth wrap.
Can these bollards be used on a concrete dock or sea wall?
Yes, absolutely. These bollards are perfect for docks, sea walls, and floating pontoons. The pre-drilled base plates are compatible with concrete anchors. Simply select the appropriate size anchor bolts for your specific concrete type and thickness. For wooden docks, use through-bolts with backing plates for maximum strength.
