NAVTEC BY HAYN

The NAVTEC Removable Rod Eye is a Type 316 stainless steel threaded eye fitting that connects rod rigging to chainplate and toggle hardware without permanently heading the rod, allowing the eye to be removed and reused when the rod is replaced or the assembly is reconfigured.

NAVTEC by Hayn - Strong Where It Matters

NAVTEC Removable Rod Eye

The removable design is the key distinction from a headed rod eye — where a standard rod eye is headed onto the rod and becomes a permanent part of the assembly, the removable version threads onto the rod nose so it can be taken off, inspected, and transferred to a new rod without replacing the fitting. This makes it a practical choice for racing programs and refit work where rod replacement is routine but the end hardware remains serviceable. Available in nine configurations with thread sizes from 3/8-24 through 1-1/4-12, covering the full NAVTEC rod size range from -04 through -60, with larger sizes available on request.

Engineered In America Every Hayn fitting is designed and manufactured at our facility in Rocky Hill, Connecticut — the same American workmanship that has set the standard for stainless steel rigging hardware since 1950.
Cold-Worked Production Hayn fittings are cold-worked, not cast. That distinction matters: the cold-working process refines grain structure, increases fatigue resistance, and produces a fundamentally stronger component — one built to perform when the load comes on it.
NAVTEC ENGINEERING STANDARDS NAVTEC components are engineered to perform under the exact conditions that demand the most from your rigging — offshore passages, high-load racing applications, and everything in between. Every fitting is precision-machined to tight tolerances, built from high-grade stainless steel, and designed to integrate seamlessly into rod rigging systems where failure is not an option. 
YOUR EXCLUSIVE SOURCE FOR NAVTEC Hayn is the sole authorized manufacturer and supplier of NAVTEC rigging components. That means every part you order is made to the original specifications, backed by Hayn's manufacturing expertise, and supported by our team in Rocky Hill. There is no other legitimate source for new NAVTEC product — what you get here is the real thing.
