Questions & Answers

Is it necessary to use different sizes of screws?

This is how March, 2021 will look Nuts and bolts are not included. I need to unscrew one of the carry handle screws and match it up at the local hardware store The reason I don't know what size and thread to use is that I have no idea what size and thread to use.

What kind of screws does it come with?

Please forgive me, but I do not This seems to be the case. I have been able to use it successfully. In any hardware store, you can find stainless steel screws appropriate for your project. Peace and grace to you.

This model does not have an extender. Is it possible to add one?

I have no doubt that the Scotty #429 Extended Gear Head Adapter will work well In my case, both are present.

What is the length and width of the ?

A dimension like that is not specified by the manufacturer. In all, the device measures 1 3/4" wide x 3/8" tall x 7" long (4" track usable)

Selected User Reviews For Scotty #282-BK Baitcaster Rod Holder w/Gearhead & Track (Black)

A rod holder or accessory that meets your needs is the best option
5/5

My favorite part of the rail is its low profile. The kayak is used by me. This method is really good because you can move the rod holder forward and back to position it better than with Furthermore, fixed mounts protrude more than this mount, which is very low profile and won't interfere with the rod holder if you find yourself not using it. In addition to rod holders, you can mount other items on your kayak or boat as well. It is worth mentioning that you only have a little over 3 inches of travel for mounting. There is a loss of about an inch of useful Thus the total length is 4 inches, but you can only mount a part of it using 3 inches. You can also get an 8 inch rail if you need more mounting options or want to mount multiple items at once. I think these holders are really nice and seem to be a better option than a regular rod holder thanks to their low profile and flexibility.

Unlike other tracks, it will not tighten
3/5

Perhaps I should have installed the track that came with it so it would be more sturdy. did not want to drill holes in my kayak, so I decided to use the tracks that were already on it. No matter how hard I tried, the holder refused to tighten! As it wobbled, it landed on its side. A terrible turn of events occurred. Using the end of my rod to hold it in place, I had to put my leg between my kayak and my rod. Without a doubt, I returned the item as soon as possible. It was refunded to me. It fits right on their track if you don't mind drilling holes and installing their track, but it does not fit on most This is a very loose and wobbly piece.

It is easy to install, but the hardware is I installed this on my Pelican Castaway kayak and it fitted perfect! Considering that the hardware is not included, I purchased #10 3/4" Stainless Steel screws, as well as gorilla glue to ensure a good My kayak had recessed sections that were perfectly suited for its 4 x 6 low profile track
5/5

The rod holder can be switched sides at any time, so I picked up an extra 4" track in case I need it for future upgrades. I could not believe how simple the installation was!.

The situation is fine, but
3/5

This track holder is great for the track. I love the smaller size of the holder compared to the Yak attack, however the quick disconnect feature, which wasn't working out of the box, is a bit wimpy. The product seems to have a manufacturing or material flaw, so in order to avoid the trouble of returning it, I installed an O-ring that makes it work I like the earring around my ears, it Getting the O-ring attached is not a problem, but the holder will fall off without it An earring.

I love the product, but the packaging is in bad shape and parts are missing
5/5

Products are amazing, Scotty has proven itself for years now, but the shape of this product is something else, it looks like someone had to drag it miles and there was no track for it, I am keeping it it seems to be fine, just looks like it was dragged along concrete.

They have to be mine
4/5

Watercrafts with these should be on your list if you like to trolling. While the rods are locked into place firmly, they can be easily popped out The addition of a lanyard for rod security is pretty straightforward, too. The sets come with a short track that I did not need, but it is handy if I wanted to add more gear to the The cost was well worth it.

How do I fix a quick release fault? I tossed the rail tracks that came with it since I already had rail tracks on my yak
3/5

My tracks fit perfectly with this item, but it doesn't have a quick release in good working condition. No matter if the lid is locked or not, it comes out. It hasn't been an issue since I don't do any trolling, but I will probably never get into trouble with this holder since I don't do any trolling. As far as I can tell, it's a much better design than the holes and rod holders built into.

It's a good system
4/5

It seems to work for fresh water but doesn't seem the strongest in the world. I like it so far and it seems to meet my needs so far. The only thing I dislike about it is that it doesn't fit spinning rods very well but it does the job. What I like most about this product is the fact that it's Made in Canada instead of China.
