Choose from our selection of quality hardware
Eye ends – Used to cover the end of cut tubing to attach other components, like post or fork mounts or quick release pins. Available in three sizes. REMEMBER: If you are using our 1 1/4″ mounts to connect to smaller tubing (using either 7/8″ or 1″ eye ends), you will need to drill out the hole in the top of the smaller eye ends to fit the heavy duty bolts in the top of the larger mounts. Please phone us with questions.
Slip tees – Used to join pieces of tubing with a clean, strong junction. Available in two sizes. We also have a tee that opens like a book on a hinge – only available in 7/8″.
Deck hinges – Used to secure tubing frames to flat surfaces. Your choice of universal, 90degree, angled, swivel with an integrated eye end, two types of Accon mounts and the angled shim that can be used with them.
Stainless steel sleeves – Used to secure a GemLock folding strut in a locked, open position, but also useful for other jobs. Available in 4 sizes.
Jaw mounts – If our offset mounts aren’t quite what you are looking for, these sliding and split jaw mounts might be just the thing.
Spring balls – Used to hold a stainless steel sleeve in its locked position on a GemLock folding strut and then release it when you want to fold the hinge.
Snap tool – Don’t struggle with your canvas snaps, use this professional snap tool to attach and remove snapped canvas with ease.
Post screws, clamp bolts, washers and set screws – Lost a little something overboard? Have no fear, we’ve got what you need right here to replace lost components of Gemini Marine Products. Sold in sets of six.
Drop nose quick release pins – Perfect to use with our fork mounts or jaw mounts when you want the speed or ease of disconnecting frames without tools.

(Concave fork mount)
I’ve just received my rail mount and it seems to have excellent quality. I’m very happy with the purchase, customer service and speed for international shipment.
Response from Gemini Marine Products
We’re so happy to hear from you! Thank you for your interest in our products and happy sailing.
Concave post rails
Purchased 4 concave post rails to use in mounting 4 x 175 watt flexible solar panels to the Bimini frame on my 40.5 Hunter Legend. Panels will be supported by a frame of 7/8″ 316 stainless tubing joined by 90 deg corner fittings and T Fittings along the two interior rails all in 316 stainless. Used your drill guide Pro to mount the posts to the Bimini and the solar frame rails to the posts. Had to use a slightly longer bolt than one supplied with the posts to reach through the 7/8″ stainless tubing but all is secured and the panels are making power for both the 2 x 8D AGM house batteries and the AGM start battery. Thanks for the prompt service on my order delivery.
Response from Gemini Marine Products
You are most welcome. We’re so glad to make things a little easier for you.
Drill Steady Pro
Great piece of kit, worked as described. Great for initial hole drilling and also as a pilot hole for a larger bit if a bigger hole is required.
Response from Gemini Marine Products
Yeah it’s a handy little thing, isn’t it? We’re glad you like it.
