The Weld-On Fulton Fold-Away Hinge Kit for 3" x 3" Trailer Tongue, item # FHDPW330300, is constructed of cast steel.

All welding must be performed by a certified AWS welder. Making sure casting is straight and fully seated on the tongue tube. Weld complete on all four sides using a 3/16 inch minimum fillet weld.
