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. The manual covers multiple types: bolt-on rack jacks, snap ring models, bolt-thru models, A-plate jacks, direct-mount jacks, and pivot tube jacks. Each type uses either a side-wind (crank handle on the side) or top-wind (crank handle on top) mechanism. The jack may also include optional drop feet, drop legs, or removable casters for additional ground support.
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. If your trailer has a round tongue, you will need a different type of jack or mounting solution.
The gap between the mounting bolts and the tongue must not exceed 1/16 inch (1.5 mm). This applies to all bolt-on mounting bracket installations. If the gap is larger, the mounting will not be secure and the jack may fail under load.
No. A-plate jacks are designed specifically for mounting to trailers with A-plate couplers only. If your trailer does not have an A-plate coupler, you will need a different jack type. The manual recommends attaching a bottom support plate to the bottom of the tongue for additional strength.
Bolt-on tongue jacks include supplied bolts and locknuts for mounting. The manual specifies that 4 bolts are inserted through the mounting bracket and mounting straps, and secured with locknuts. For A-plate jacks, three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers are used to bolt the A-plate to the coupler. Always use the fasteners supplied with your specific jack model.
The manual does not specify the tools required for bolt-on installation. However, based on the instructions, you will need a wrench or socket to tighten the locknuts to the specified torque of 25 ft. lbs. For weld-on installations, you must have access to an AWS certified welder. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-632-3290 for a complete tool list for your specific jack model.
Before mounting the jack, confirm that there will be no interference from the tow vehicle, tongue, ground, and any other mounted accessories while stationary or in motion. Check for interference in all positions including handle swing and swivel positions if applicable. After installation is complete, check for interference again. Specifically verify clearance of the handle, trailer light cables, and coupler.
1) Place the gear housing on the tongue and insert the 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 the 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.
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 to ensure proper seating.
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.
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. Use 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. 6) Rack jacks with a similar A-plate incorporated into their design may be attached according to these instructions.
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.
The manual does not explicitly state whether drilling is required. However, the bolt-on mounting instructions assume that mounting holes already exist in the tongue and mounting straps. If your trailer does not have pre-drilled holes in the correct pattern for your tongue width, you will need to drill them. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-632-3290 for guidance on hole sizing and placement for your specific jack model.
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 purchase a weld-on jack model instead. Attempting to weld a bolt-on bracket will void the warranty and may compromise safety.
All bolt-on mounting bolts must be torqued to 25 ft. lbs. This applies to both rack jack mounting and standard bolt-on mounting bracket installations. Use a torque wrench to ensure proper tightness and prevent over-tightening, which can damage the fasteners or tongue.
The three 3/8-16 grade 5 bolts with washers that bolt the jack A-plate to the coupler must be torqued to 15-20 ft. lbs. This is a lower torque than standard bolt-on mounting (25 ft. lbs.) because A-plate bolts are smaller.
All weld-on tongue jack installations require a 3/16 inch fillet weld. This applies to direct-mount installations (1 inch in 2 locations on both sides), A-plate installations, and pivot tube installations. All welding must be performed by an AWS certified welder.
Before towing, you must fully retract and rotate the jack. If your jack has an optional drop foot or caster, always remove it before towing to maximize ground clearance. If your jack has a pivot tube mount, ensure the pivot pin is fully inserted through both sides of the pivot tube and the pivot mount. If your jack is a swivel jack, lock the plunger pin into a hole in the mounting bracket before raising or lowering the tongue.
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 your product to obtain the rated capacity. If uncertain, contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-632-3290 or www.cequentgroup.com.
These jacks are designed for vertical loading only. Excessive side forces may cause jack failure and must be avoided. Do not apply lateral or horizontal forces to the jack, as this can compromise structural integrity and cause the jack to collapse.
No. The manual states: 'This product is not intended to be used as a transport device for the implement it is attached to. Minimize movement of implement while jack is under load.' The jack is designed only for raising and lowering the trailer tongue for coupling and uncoupling, not for transporting or moving implements.
Follow these safety precautions: (1) Never position any part of your body under any portion of the jack or the load being supported. (2) Secure the load, vehicle, and trailer from rolling by blocking the wheels when operating the jack or coupling the trailer. (3) Do not allow children to play on or around the jack or the load being supported. (4) Before manually moving the trailer, crank the jack to the lowest position. (5) If the jack has a drop foot or drop leg, never attempt to adjust it when there is any load on the jack.
If your jack has a drop foot or drop leg, ensure 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 your jack is a swivel jack, lock the plunger pin into a hole in the mounting bracket before raising or lowering the tongue. This prevents the jack from rotating unexpectedly during operation.
If your jack has a pivot tube mount, ensure the pivot pin is fully inserted through both sides of the pivot tube and the pivot mount before operating the jack. This secures the jack to the mount and prevents it from separating during use.
No. The manual explicitly states: 'If this product is a rack jack, do not raise the gear housing above inner tube.' Raising the gear housing beyond this point can damage the jack and create a safety hazard.
After installation is complete, check for interference again in all positions including handle swing and swivel positions if applicable. Verify clearance of the handle, trailer light cables, and coupler. Ensure all bolts are torqued to the specified values and that the jack operates smoothly through its full range of motion.
The following procedures should be performed at least annually: For side-wind models, apply a small amount of automotive grease to the internal gearing and apply a lightweight oil to the handle unit at both sides of the tube. For top-wind models, apply a lightweight oil to the screw stem. If equipped, lubricate the axle bolt and nut assembly of the caster wheel with the same lightweight oil. 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. This should be done at least annually.
For top-wind models, apply a lightweight oil to the screw stem at least annually. This keeps the screw mechanism operating smoothly.
If the product is used in a marine environment, flush the jack assembly and bushings with fresh water, and apply fresh lubricant at least annually. This prevents salt water corrosion and keeps the jack operating smoothly.
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.
For a heavy duty caster: 1) Jack capacity is limited to the lesser of jack or caster capacity. 2) Use 4 3/8 inch bolts, washers, and locknuts as shown in the manual diagram.
Always replace bent, broken, or worn parts before using the product. Do not attempt to repair or continue using a damaged jack, as this creates a safety hazard. Contact Cequent Performance Products at 1-800-632-3290 to order replacement parts. Please specify the product model number when ordering.
All welding must be performed by an AWS certified welder. This applies to all weld-on installations including direct-mount, A-plate, and pivot tube mounts. Do not attempt to weld the jack yourself unless you are AWS certified. Improper welding can compromise the structural integrity of the jack and create a safety hazard.
