Black Nylon Boat Hook Head - 30mm Bore | Marine Equipment & Boat Supplies

Robust nylon head fits externally over an aluminium tube or wooden pole.

A replacement boat hook head lets you retain a serviceable pole while renewing the working end used to gather a line or bring a loose item within reach.

Choosing and using this product

Check the way the head joins the pole before ordering. An external-fitting head slides over the end of the shaft, while an internal-fitting head enters the tube. Measure the actual mating surface with callipers rather than relying on the nominal pole size. A sleeve, end plug or old adhesive can change the available clearance.

Inspect the pole end for splits, distortion and corrosion before reusing it. Trial-fit the head and check that it seats straight without excessive movement. Follow the appropriate fastening arrangement for the pole material, keeping any screw ends or sharp edges away from hands and ropes. Do not force a poorly matched head onto a shaft.

Choose a pole length that allows useful reach while leaving a comfortable grip. During use, keep a stable footing and avoid leaning outside the boat to gain extra distance. Use the hook to retrieve or guide light items; do not use it as a lifting device, a person-recovery attachment or a substitute for a properly secured mooring line.

After fitting, practise picking up a loose line from the deck before relying on the hook alongside a berth. Rinse salt and grit from the joint, check for looseness and store the assembled pole in accessible retaining clips. Inspect the hook tips and attachment again if the pole has been dropped or trapped against a pontoon.

Before discarding the old head, compare its seating depth and fastening position with the replacement. A sound fit requires both the correct diameter and enough supported engagement at the end of the pole.
