Can the Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit Rust Over Time
Question:
Will this product work on a boat trailer foldaway arm that gets submerged in salt water? i.e. will it rust over time even after rinsing?

The Replacement Pivot Pin for Fulton Coupler Hinge Kits part # F500336 like the Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit part # FHDPB340301 is designed for boat trailers that frequent salt water so there will be no issues with rust. The hardware and brackets are all zinc coated so as long you don't wear through the coating there will be no rust issues.
I have attached a review video I did on the Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit below as well.
