Fulton has produced marine and utility trailer hardware for more than a century, and its jacks, winches and couplers are a standard for light and medium-duty trailering. The XLT and F2 series cover swivel and fixed jacks, hand and powered winches from 1,500 to 3,200 pounds, and couplers built to keep working in wet, salty conditions.
With more than a hundred years of production behind it, Fulton has become the reference point for light and medium-duty trailer hardware, particularly on the marine side. That environment is the toughest test a trailer component faces. A boat trailer is reversed into fresh or salt water on every launch and left to sit wet, which finds every weakness in plating, sealing and material choice. Fulton's stated position is that the brand performs best when the weather is at its worst, and its product engineering reflects that. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Draw-Tite, Bulldog, Tekonsha and Wesbar.
Marine and utility jacks anchor the line. The XLT Series marine jack uses a bolt-through swivel mount built from three-dimensionally formed heavy-gauge steel stampings with a proprietary bushing material, a combination chosen to minimise deflection under tongue load while keeping the swivel action working after years of exposure. The F2 Series takes corrosion resistance further as the industry's only extruded aluminium marine jack with an anodised finish, which removes the rust problem at its source rather than coating over it. The wider trailer jack range covers topwind, sidewind and drop-leg configurations.
Trailer winches pull boats onto bunks and rollers. XLT Series winches use efficient gear ratios, full-length drum bearings, oil-impregnated shaft bushings and a Comfort Grip handle that makes the last few turns under load bearable, in 1,500 and 1,800 pound capacities. F2 Series winches use an enclosed frame for a cleaner look and added protection, in 1,600, 2,000 and 3,200 pound models, including two-speed options that trade line speed for cranking effort.
Couplers complete the range, including A-frame couplers matched to common tongue sizes and load ratings, serving boat owners, utility trailer users and trailer manufacturers.

A tongue jack is a device mounted to a trailer tongue that raises and lowers the front of the trailer for coupling, uncoupling, and ground clearance adjustment. These jacks are designed for vertical loading only and are available in multiple mounting styles (bolt-on, snap ring, bolt-thru, A-plate, direct-mount, and pivot tube) with side-wind or top-wind handle configurations. Some models include optional drop foot, drop leg, or removable caster wheels.
Tongue jacks are available in six mounting styles: (1) Bolt-on rack jacks, (2) Bolt-on mounting brackets, (3) Snap ring models, (4) Bolt-thru models, (5) A-plate jacks (for A-plate couplers only), and (6) Direct-mount or weld-on pivot tube mounts (round and square tubes). Each style has specific installation requirements. A-plate jacks are designed exclusively for trailers with A-plate couplers.
No. The manual explicitly states: "These jacks are not designed for mounting to round tongues." Tongue jacks are designed for flat or rectangular tongues only.
No. A-plate jacks are designed exclusively for mounting to trailers with A-plate couplers. The manual states: "A-plate jacks are designed for mounting to trailers with A-plate couplers." If your trailer does not have an A-plate coupler, you will need a different mounting style.
The gap between the mounting bolts and the tongue must not exceed 1/16 inch (1.5 mm). This applies to bolt-on mounting bracket installations. Proper alignment ensures secure fastening and prevents movement.
Bolt-on tongue jacks include: supplied bolts (quantity and size depend on mounting style), locknuts, and a mounting bracket. For A-plate models, three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers are required (not all may be included; verify with your specific product). Snap ring models include a snap ring. Bolt-thru models include a bushing and locknut. Handle assemblies include spacers, bolts, and nuts. Caster wheel assemblies include spacers, bolts, and nuts.
The manual does not specify which tools are required for installation. However, based on the installation methods described, you will likely need: wrenches or sockets for bolts and locknuts, a torque wrench (to achieve 25 ft. lbs. for bolt-on models and 15-20 ft. lbs. for A-plate models), and for weld-on models, an AWS-certified welder. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510 for a complete tool list for your specific model.
Before installation, you must: (1) Confirm there will be no interference from the tow vehicle, tongue, ground, or any other mounted accessories while stationary or in motion, (2) Check for interference in all positions including handle swing and swivel positions if applicable, (3) Verify the correct mounting hole pattern for your tongue size, (4) Inspect the snap ring groove and remove any debris (for snap ring models), and (5) Check for clearance of the handle, trailer light cables, and coupler after installation is complete.
The manual does not mention battery disconnection. Tongue jacks are mechanical devices without electrical components, so battery disconnection is not required.
To install a bolt-on rack jack: (1) Place the gear housing on the tongue and insert the supplied bolts into holes corresponding to the tongue width, (2) Place the mounting bracket below the tongue with the flat surface against the tongue, (3) Secure with locknuts and torque to 25 ft. lbs. Ensure the gap between mounting bolts and tongue does not exceed 1/16 inch.
To install a bolt-on mounting bracket jack: (1) Place the jack against the tongue and position the mounting straps on the opposite side of the tongue, (2) Align the holes in the mounting bracket with the holes in the mounting straps, (3) Insert the 4 bolts through the mounting bracket and mounting straps—upper bolts should rest on top of the tongue, lower bolts should be less than 1/16 inch from the bottom of the tongue, (4) Secure with locknuts and torque to 25 ft. lbs., (5) Check for clearance of handle, trailer light cables, and coupler. The gap between mounting bolts and tongue must not exceed 1/16 inch.
To install a snap ring model jack: (1) Place the jack bracket over the mount, (2) Place the snap ring in the groove, (3) Seat the snap ring fully into the groove. Before installation, inspect the snap ring groove and remove any debris to ensure proper seating.
To install a bolt-thru model jack: (1) Place the jack bracket into the recessed opening on the mount, (2) Place the small end of the bushing into the jack bracket and onto the bolt, (3) Tighten the locknut until there is little movement in the bushing. Note: The bolt should be installed between the trailer tongue and mount; the jack bracket will be held by the bushing between the locknut and the mount.
A-plate jacks are designed for trailers with A-plate couplers. Installation steps: (1) All welding must be performed by an AWS-certified welder, (2) If the A-plate is separate from the jack, align the jack (and foot, if equipped) with the jack and coupler as desired before welding using a 3/16-inch fillet weld, (3) Bolt the jack A-plate to the coupler using three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers, torque to 15-20 ft. lbs., (4) Weld the recommended support plate to the bottom of the trailer frame using a 3/16-inch fillet weld, (5) If your jack is a plain mount type, it may be mounted directly to a coupler with a 3/16-inch fillet weld. It is recommended to attach a bottom support plate to the bottom of the tongue.
To install a direct-mount weld-on jack: (1) All welding must be performed by an AWS-certified welder, (2) Place the jack at the desired location on the tongue, (3) Weld 1 inch in 2 locations on both sides of the jack using a 3/16-inch fillet weld. The same welding instructions apply to other weld-on mounts.
To install a weld-on pivot tube jack (round or square): (1) All welding must be performed by an AWS-certified welder, (2) The non-beveled side of the pivot tube is welded to the tongue unless otherwise specified on hardware, (3) Place the weld-on pivot tube against the tongue and weld all around with a 3/16-inch fillet weld, aligning one set of pivot mount holes vertically, (4) Mate the jack to the pivot tube and secure with the supplied pin.
For a top-wind handle assembly: (1) Place the washer over the screw stem, (2) Place the handle over the screw stem, (3) Secure the handle to the screw stem with the bolt and nut provided. For a side-wind handle assembly: (1) Insert the long spacer into the roller, (2) Insert the thin spacer and bolt, (3) Secure to the crank stem with the nut provided.
To attach a wheel assembly: (1) Insert the long spacer into the wheel, (2) Set the wheel into the caster body and place the bolt through the caster body and wheel, (3) Secure with the nut provided. For a heavy-duty caster, use 4 3/8-inch bolts, washers, and locknuts as shown in the manual. Jack capacity is limited to the lesser of the jack or caster capacity.
Drilling requirements depend on the mounting style. For bolt-on models (rack jack, mounting bracket, A-plate), you must use existing holes in the tongue and mounting hardware—the manual does not indicate that drilling is required. For weld-on models (direct-mount, pivot tube, A-plate), welding is required instead of drilling. The manual does not explicitly state whether pre-drilled holes are assumed to exist. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510 if you need clarification for your specific tongue configuration.
No. The manual explicitly states: "Do not attempt to weld 'Bolt-On' brackets or straps to the tongue. Special brackets are available for 'Weld-On' applications." If you need a weld-on installation, you must use special weld-on brackets designed for that purpose. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510 for weld-on bracket options.
Yes, if you are installing a weld-on model (direct-mount or pivot tube). The manual states: "All welding must be performed by an AWS certified welder." This requirement applies to all weld-on installations, including A-plate models. Bolt-on models do not require welding.
For bolt-on models (rack jacks and mounting brackets), torque all locknuts to 25 ft. lbs. For A-plate models, use three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers and torque to 15-20 ft. lbs.
All weld-on installations require a 3/16-inch fillet weld. This applies to direct-mount jacks, pivot tube mounts, and A-plate models. All welding must be performed by an AWS-certified welder.
For direct-mount weld-on jacks, weld 1 inch in 2 locations on both sides of the jack using a 3/16-inch fillet weld. This creates four 1-inch weld segments total (two on each side).
No. Tongue jacks are mechanical devices operated by hand crank (side-wind or top-wind models). They do not have electrical components, wiring, or batteries. No electrical installation or troubleshooting is required.
Critical safety precautions: (1) Never position any part of your body under any portion of the product or the load being supported, (2) Never exceed the maximum rated capacity—refer to stamped markings or decals on the product, (3) Fully retract and rotate the jack before towing, (4) Remove optional drop foot or caster before towing to maximize ground clearance, (5) Crank to the lowest position before manually moving the trailer, (6) Block wheels to secure the load, vehicle, and trailer from rolling when operating the jack or coupling the trailer, (7) Do not allow children to play on or around the product or load, (8) Do not use the product as a transport device for the implement it is attached to—minimize implement movement while the jack is under load, (9) These jacks are designed for vertical loading only; avoid excessive side forces which may cause jack failure.
The manual does not list specific capacity ratings. Instead, it states: "Jack capacity is limited to the lesser of the jack, footplate, or caster wheel capacity. Never exceed maximum rated capacity. Refer to stamped markings or decals on product to obtain rated capacity. If uncertain, contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510 or www.cequentgroup.com." Check the physical markings on your jack for the exact capacity.
No. The manual explicitly states: "These jacks are designed for vertical loading. Excessive side forces may cause jack failure and must be avoided." Tongue jacks must only be used to raise and lower the trailer vertically. Do not apply horizontal or side forces to the jack.
If your tongue jack is equipped with an optional drop foot or caster, you must always remove it before towing to maximize ground clearance. The manual states: "If using optional drop foot or caster, always remove drop foot or caster before towing to maximize ground clearance."
Before towing, you must: (1) Fully retract and rotate the jack, (2) Remove any optional drop foot or caster to maximize ground clearance. The manual states: "Fully retract and rotate jack before towing" and "If using optional drop foot or caster, always remove drop foot or caster before towing to maximize ground clearance."
If your tongue jack is a swivel model, you must lock the plunger pin into a hole in the mounting bracket before raising or lowering the tongue. The manual states: "If this product is a swivel jack, lock the plunger pin into a hole in the mounting bracket before raising or lowering the tongue."
Before using a tongue jack with a drop foot or drop leg, you must ensure that the supplied pin is fully inserted through both sides of the inner tube and the drop tube. The manual states: "When using the drop foot or drop leg, make certain the supplied pin is fully inserted through both sides of the inner tube and the drop tube before using the jack."
If your tongue jack has a pivot tube mount, you must ensure that the pivot pin is fully inserted through both sides of the pivot tube and the pivot mount before raising or lowering the tongue. The manual states: "If this product has a pivot tube mount, make certain the pivot pin is fully inserted through both sides on the pivot tube and the pivot mount."
No. The manual explicitly states: "If this product has a drop foot or drop leg, never attempt to adjust the drop foot or drop leg when there is any load on the jack." Always lower the jack completely before making any adjustments.
No. The manual explicitly states: "If this product is a rack jack, do not raise the gear housing above inner tube." This is a critical safety limit to prevent damage and failure.
After installation is complete, you must check for interference again. Specifically, verify: (1) No interference from the tow vehicle, tongue, ground, or any other mounted accessories while stationary or in motion, (2) Clearance of the handle, trailer light cables, and coupler. The manual states: "Check for interference again after installation is complete."
The following procedures must be performed at least annually: For side-wind models, apply a small amount of automotive grease to the internal gearing by removing the jack cover or using a needle-nose applicator or standard grease gun on the lubrication point near the crank. Rotate the jack handle to distribute grease evenly. Apply lightweight oil to the handle unit at both sides of the tube. If equipped, lubricate the caster wheel axle bolt and nut assembly with the same lightweight oil. For top-wind models, apply lightweight oil to the screw stem. If the product is used in a marine environment, flush the jack assembly and bushings with fresh water and apply fresh lubricant.
To lubricate the internal gearing: (1) Apply a small amount of automotive grease to the internal gearing by removing the jack cover, or if equipped, use a needle-nose applicator or standard grease gun on the lubrication point found on the side of the jack near the crank, (2) Rotate the jack handle to distribute the grease evenly. This procedure should be performed at least annually.
For side-wind models, apply a lightweight oil to the handle unit at both sides of the tube. For top-wind models, apply lightweight oil to the screw stem. If equipped, the caster wheel axle bolt and nut assembly should also be lubricated with the same lightweight oil. This maintenance should be performed at least annually.
If the tongue jack is used in a marine environment, you must flush the jack assembly and bushings with fresh water and apply fresh lubricant at least annually. This prevents corrosion and salt damage to internal components.
The manual states: "Always replace bent, broken, or worn parts before using this product." Inspect all components before each use and replace any parts that show signs of damage, bending, breaking, or excessive wear. Use only Cequent Performance Products parts or parts of equal quality for replacement.
Replacement parts are available through Cequent Performance Products Customer Service Department at 1-800-521-0510. When ordering, please specify the product model number. Use only Cequent Performance Products parts or parts of equal quality for repairs.
Before installing the snap ring, inspect the snap ring groove and remove any debris. Ensure the snap ring is fully seated into the groove. If debris is present, clean the groove thoroughly before attempting to install the snap ring again. If the snap ring still does not seat properly, contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510.
If there is excessive movement in the bushing on a bolt-thru model jack, tighten the locknut further until there is little movement in the bushing. The locknut should be tightened until the bushing is snug but still allows minimal movement. Do not over-tighten, as this may damage the bushing.
If you discover interference after installation, you must address it before using the jack. The manual states: "Check for interference again after installation is complete." Interference may occur with the tow vehicle, tongue, ground, handle swing, swivel positions, trailer light cables, or coupler. If interference is present, you may need to reposition the jack, use a different mounting location, or select a different mounting style. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510 for assistance.
Tongue jacks are available in multiple mounting styles: bolt-on (rack jack or bracket), snap ring, bolt-thru, A-plate (for A-plate couplers only), and weld-on (direct-mount or pivot tube). They are not designed for round tongues. Check your tongue type and coupler style, then verify the correct mounting hole pattern. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510 or www.cequentgroup.com with your trailer specifications for fitment confirmation.
Bolt-on models include bolts, locknuts, and mounting bracket. Snap ring models include a snap ring. Bolt-thru models include a bushing and locknut. A-plate models require three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers (verify inclusion with your product). Handle and caster assemblies include spacers, bolts, and nuts. Weld-on models do not include fasteners. Verify your specific model's contents.
The manual does not state whether professional installation is required. Bolt-on models may be installed by the owner if you have basic tools and can achieve proper torque (25 ft. lbs.). Weld-on models require an AWS-certified welder. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-521-0510 if you are unsure whether to hire a professional.
For bolt-on models (rack jacks and mounting brackets), torque all locknuts to 25 ft. lbs. For A-plate models, torque three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers to 15-20 ft. lbs. For weld-on models, use a 3/16-inch fillet weld performed by an AWS-certified welder.
Before towing, fully retract and rotate the jack. If equipped with an optional drop foot or caster, remove it to maximize ground clearance. Never tow with the jack extended or with optional accessories attached.
Perform maintenance at least annually. For side-wind models, lubricate internal gearing with automotive grease and apply lightweight oil to the handle. For top-wind models, apply lightweight oil to the screw stem. If used in a marine environment, flush with fresh water and apply fresh lubricant. Always replace bent, broken, or worn parts before use.
