Hobie Pro Angler 12 Vantage ST Seat FRONT Plates 2013/2023 MR180/MR360

Please Note that all HOBIE components in Red, Blue, Green & Orange are made to order and may require additional lead time.

These plates are designed to fit the Hobie Pro Angler 12 Vantage ST Seat 2013/2023 MR180/MR360.

Unlike a standard flat plate, these are designed to fit the curves and recesses of the hull for the best possible fit.  The front plates were carefully designed to eliminate as many voids that occur when using flat plates and transfer the load more evenly to the hull. 

These plates are 100% solid and manufactured using PTEG. PTEG is salt water resistant and has a higher tinsel strength than HDPE.

These are designed as direct bolt on upgrades.

Includes

4 replacement 1/4-20 x 1-1/2 stainless steel button head socket cap screws

Please note that While we do as much research and testing as possible, due to inconsistencies on the hulls of various Kayaks this product may not fit your Kayak perfectly when it arrives. In the majority of cases, users will be able to drop the plates into place without any modification. However, due to the mentioned inconsistences, it is possible that a minor amount of reshaping may be needed. This can be done very easily by heating up the plate just enough to make it malleable, and then simply pressing it into position until it cools. If at any time you have questions about this or any of our products, please contact us.
