windshield bimini hardware

[stock333]

any idea where I can purchase this item that holds the bimini rod to the windshield frame. The item I need is the nylon fitting that fits around the windshield

[Phillbo]

Any canvas shop will have them...

That fitting is hard to find and was phased out for something like this.

I purchased two from Leta's Top Shop back in the spring (https://letastopshop.com/). They had them in stock at the time.

Technically, (above) is a deck mount. It would be used to mount a pole to the deck or gunwale in the boat.

What you're looking for is referred to as a 'Jaw Slide'. A jawslide allows you to mount a pole to another pole. They can come in a hinged version which clamps onto the pole, or one that you need to slide over the end of a pole.

While the one I posted is defined as a deck mount its base is concave and can be mounted to the window frame.

You are correct. My apologies. I didn't look closely enough. I would hate that design on a deck. It would be tough to seal properly.
