Is the thimble corrosion proof for saltwater ?

I only use this anchor line in fresh water so I don't know if salt water would corrode the thimble or not. I imagine if you rinse it off in fresh water it should be fine.

I have not exposed this item to seawater so I cannot comment from experience. Stainless steel comes in many grades, some are more resistant to corrosion in seawater than others. There is no indication regarding the type of stainless used, so you are better off going with the brass or plastic offerings.

Ytolyccuz, I'm a technical diver, I have brought this with an underwater camera to as deep as 100ft in the sea, till today it's solid and no hints of rust, I have had this for over 5 years now, and it's still going strong. However, I suggest, that like anything that has been in the sea, put it in fresh water as soon as you can, dont let the salt dry on it.

I really don't know. I think it should run fine in salt water but unless you clean it VERY GOOD I would expect it to corrode very quickly making it useless. I I reeally don't know how you might clean it sufficiently.

No, I dont think so. However, its heavy duty and well made. No rust been, having all summer with salt pool.

The ladder is made from corrosion resistant coated steel and should resist rusting under most circumstances. Rinsing after use may minimize any corrosive effects from the salt water.

Salt water is where I am using my bag and have seen no rust in the time since purchased the bag { 2 months } after a fishing trip, I rinse everything with fresh water.

It is made out of Stainless Steel so yes it is made for salt water. It will not rust and is of a standard size for most if not all fishing rods.

Minn Kota makes a line that is designed for SeaWater. From my understanding, the propeller parts are designed to withstand the corrosive that salt does to a typical motor which this one is NOT designed to do. I wouldn't risk it.

I think they would perform fine in that situation. Just keep an eye out for corrosion. Salt water can corrode things that you wouldn't believe it could.

It's stainless and saltwater safe but dragging it through the sand might be a bit difficult. They are bicycle tires. It's great for fields and docks...

I couldn't say definitely if it is but the stainless steel is definitely corrosion resistant. Been using it for over a year with no signs of rust

We are in the marine industry building barges and Tug boat and they are exposed to moisture a lot and occasionally get slightly submerged in water (appears to be water resistant), but I don't know if they are water proof... Suggest checking with Manufacturer

Salt water and carbon steel is a bad combination. Stainless steel would serve you better in a salt water environment.

No, it is not. You always should have it in a protected unit. Although mine is out in the air. It is not good to have salt water soaking it from a wave. You get corrosion on power cables.

Although its not recommended, you can use in salt water as long as you rinse all the metal componets after use with freshwater. You must take off the prop and spray water in there to make sure te metal doesnt rust. Ive use my 45lb minn kota over 20 times in the salt water and rinse it after and she still works fine rust free.
