Lee's Tackle Clamp-On Rod Holder - Black Aluminum - Vertical Mount - Fits 1.315 O.D. Pipe - RA5002BK

Lee’s Tackle Clamp-On Rod Holder – Black Aluminum – Vertical Mount – Fits 1.315" O.D. Pipe (RA5002BK)

The Lee’s Tackle Clamp-On Rod Holder (RA5002BK) is a premium, no-drill solution designed for secure and professional rod storage on boats. Featuring a vertical mount configuration, this rod holder keeps rods upright and organized on T-tops, towers, radar arches, and railings, maximizing space while protecting your gear.

Constructed from high-quality black anodized aluminum, this rod holder offers excellent resistance to corrosion, UV exposure, and harsh marine environments. The clamp is precision-engineered to fit 1.315" outer diameter pipe, providing a secure, tight grip without damaging your boat’s structure.

The clamp-on design allows for quick installation using basic tools, eliminating the need for drilling. This makes it ideal for boats with wiring or hydraulic lines inside tubing, and allows for easy repositioning as needed.

A heavy-duty vinyl insert protects rods from scratches while ensuring a firm hold, and the reinforced clamp system with stainless steel hardware provides strength and durability under marine conditions.

Perfect for both rod storage and light-duty fishing applications, this holder delivers the reliability and craftsmanship Lee’s Tackle is known for.

Key Features

• Aesthetic Integration: The deep black anodized finish is specifically designed to match black powder-coated T-tops, towers, and leaning posts, offering a sleek "factory" look for modern offshore center consoles.

• Rugged Construction: Built from structural-grade aluminum to handle the extreme torque and leverage of heavy offshore trolling outfits (30lb to 80lb class).

• Non-Destructive Installation: The two-piece clamp system allows for a secure, slip-free attachment to existing rails without the need for drilling or welding, preserving the finish and structural integrity of your tower.

• Total Rod Protection: Features a UV-resistant black vinyl liner to prevent rod handle chafing and a heavy-duty internal gimbal pin to lock the rod in place and prevent rotation during transit.

• Streamlined Profile: Utilizes hidden stainless steel hex-head fasteners that sit flush within the clamp to ensure a smooth, snag-free exterior.

Installation Tips

• Measurement: Always verify your pipe diameter with calipers. If your rail measures 1.050" O.D., you require the RA5001BK; if it measures 1.66" O.D., you require the RA5004BK.

• Seizure Prevention: Apply a small amount of Tef-Gel or marine-grade anti-seize to the stainless steel bolts during assembly to prevent galvanic corrosion between the steel and aluminum.
