Is Stainless Steel Tie Down D-Anchor Needed for Install in Aluminum Bed
Published 03/27/2024
Question:
Do you have this or a similar product in stainless steel? I am attaching to an aluminum trailer bed. Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor - Bolt-On - 4-7/8 Wide - Recessed Mount - 1,600 lbs Item # RR05

Hey Mark, so we don't have a stainless steel version of the Brophy D-Ring Tie Down Anchor part # RR05 but it sounds like you are worried about dissimilar metal causing corrosion so what you could do is use this but put some gardening plastic between the mounting plate and the aluminum and you'd be fine. That's what we do here when we install steel gooseneck hitches in aluminum truck bed.
