Retractable Fork Pin Awning Base (commonly referred to as a quick-release push-button universal deck hinge).
While it shares the curved, aerodynamic profile sometimes colloquially called a "ram's horn" due to its sweeping teardrop base, its technical name centers around its unique quick-disconnect mechanism.
Key Technical Specifications
Material Construction: Cast from mirror-polished AISI 316 marine-grade stainless steel, providing maximum resistance to pitting and corrosion in saltwater environments.
Base Footprint: Features an elongated teardrop base measuring approximately 90mm x 40mm, utilizing two counter-sunk mounting holes for clean, snag-free installation on your deck.
Internal Retractable Pin: Instead of a separate pull-ring or standard detent pin, this model features a built-in 6mm spring-loaded lever/button integrated flush into the top of the base.
Universal Rotation: The top clevis post handles standard 22mm to 25mm canopy tubing eye ends, allowing a full range of swivel rotation to match the pitch of your boat's framework.
