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 mechanical device mounted to a trailer tongue that raises and lowers the front of the trailer for coupling, uncoupling, and levelling. This manual covers multiple mounting styles including bolt-on, weld-on, snap ring, bolt-thru, A-plate, direct-mount, and pivot tube models. The jack is operated by hand crank and is designed for vertical loading only.
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.
The manual covers six mounting styles: (1) Bolt-on Rack Jack, (2) Bolt-on Mounting Bracket, (3) Snap Ring/Bolt-Thru, (4) A-Plate Mounting (bolt-on or weld-on), (5) Direct-Mount (weld-on), and (6) Weld-on Pivot Tube Mounting for round and square pivot tubes. The correct style depends on your trailer design and coupler type.
No. A-plate jacks are designed specifically for mounting to trailers with A-plate couplers only. The manual recommends attaching a bottom support plate to the bottom of the tongue for additional strength.
Bolt-on models include supplied bolts and locknuts. The exact quantity and size depend on the specific model, but the manual shows 4 bolts for mounting bracket installation. Specific bolt grades and sizes vary by mounting style (for example, A-plate models use three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers).
Yes, if you are installing a weld-on model. The manual states: 'All welding must be performed by an AWS certified welder.' This applies to direct-mount, A-plate weld-on, and pivot tube weld-on installations. Bolt-on models do not require welding.
Before mounting, confirm there will be no interference from the tow vehicle, tongue, ground, or any other mounted accessories while stationary or in motion. Check for interference in all positions including handle swing and swivel positions if applicable. Check for interference again after installation is complete. For bolt-on models, ensure you have the correct mounting hole pattern for your tongue size.
1) Place the gear housing on the tongue and insert supplied bolts in 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. After installation, check for clearance of handle, trailer light cables, and coupler.
1) Place the jack against the tongue and position the mounting straps on the opposite side of the tongue. Align the holes in the mounting bracket with the holes in the mounting straps. 2) Insert the 4 bolts through the mounting bracket and mounting straps. The upper bolts should rest on the top of the tongue. The lower bolts should be less than 1/16 inch from the bottom of the tongue. 3) Secure with locknuts and torque to 25 ft. lbs. 4) Check for clearance of handle, trailer light cables, and coupler.
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.
1) Place the jack bracket over the mount and place the snap ring in the groove. 2) Seat the snap ring fully into the groove. Before installing the snap ring, inspect the snap ring groove and remove any debris.
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.
For A-plate jacks designed for A-plate couplers: 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, torqued 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. 6) Rack jacks with a similar A-plate incorporated into their design may be attached according to these instructions. It is recommended to attach a bottom support plate to the bottom of the tongue.
1) All welding must be performed by an AWS certified welder. 2) Place the jack at the desired location. 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.
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. Align one set of pivot mount holes vertically. 4) Mate the jack to the pivot tube and secure with the supplied pin.
For bolt-on models, locknuts must be torqued to 25 ft. lbs. This applies to both bolt-on rack jack and bolt-on mounting bracket installations.
For A-plate jacks, the three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers that attach the jack A-plate to the coupler must be torqued to 15-20 ft. lbs.
All weld-on installations require a 3/16 inch fillet weld. This applies to A-plate mounting, direct-mount, and pivot tube mounting styles.
Fully retract and rotate the jack before towing. If using an optional drop foot or caster, always remove it before towing to maximize ground clearance.
The jack capacity is limited to the lesser of the jack, footplate, or caster wheel capacity. Never exceed the maximum rated capacity. Refer to the stamped markings or decals on the product to obtain the rated capacity. If uncertain, contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-632-3290 or www.cequentgroup.com.
No. These jacks are designed for vertical loading only. Excessive side forces may cause jack failure and must be avoided.
Crank the jack to the lowest position before manually moving the trailer.
Never position any part of your body under any portion of the product or the load being supported. Secure the load, vehicle and trailer from rolling (by blocking wheels) when operating the jack or coupling the trailer. Do not allow children to play on or around the product or the load being supported. Do not use the product as a transport device for the implement it is attached to; minimize movement of the implement while the jack is under load.
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 using an optional drop foot or caster, always remove it before towing to maximize ground clearance. Never attempt to adjust the drop foot or drop leg when there is any load on the jack.
If the product has a pivot tube mount, make certain the pivot pin is fully inserted through both sides of the pivot tube and the pivot mount.
If the product is a swivel jack, lock the plunger pin into a hole in the mounting bracket before raising or lowering the tongue.
No. If the product is a rack jack, do not raise the gear housing above the inner tube.
The following procedures should be performed at least annually. For side-wind models, the internal gearing and bushings must be kept lubricated. 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.
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. Rotate the jack handle to distribute the grease evenly.
A lightweight oil must be applied to the handle unit at both sides of the tube for side-wind models.
If equipped, the axle bolt and nut assembly of the caster wheel must be lubricated with lightweight oil.
For top-wind models, apply a 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.
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.
1) Insert the long spacer into the roller followed by the thin spacer and the bolt. 2) Secure to the crank stem with the nut provided.
1) Place the washer over the screw stem and then place the handle over the screw stem. 2) Secure the handle to the screw stem with the bolt and nut provided.
