Tie Down Eng Fender
Tie Down Engineering Fenders: Built Tough for Trailer and Marine Use
When it comes to protecting your trailer wheels from road debris, splash, and the punishing conditions of marine environments, few names carry the engineering credibility of Tie Down Engineering. Founded in 1969 in Atlanta, Georgia, Tie Down Eng has grown from a garage workshop into one of America's largest family-owned manufacturers — with over 95 patents, 7,000+ products, and ISO 9001:2015 certification. That same engineering-first philosophy is evident across their full lineup of trailer fenders, which spans galvanized metal, high-impact plastic, and innovative bracket-less designs built to handle both freshwater launches and demanding highway miles.
A Fender for Every Trailer Configuration
What sets Tie Down Engineering apart in the fender category is the sheer breadth of their lineup, ensuring a well-matched solution whether you're running a single-axle jon boat trailer or a heavy-duty dual-axle rig.
- Galvanized Metal Fenders: Tie Down's Galvanized Metal Fenders are crafted from 16-gauge galvanized steel, offering exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. Designed for versatility, they can be easily drilled to fit a variety of mounting options, and are available in wheel sizes including 8, 12, 13, and 14–15 inches.
- UV-Protected Plastic Fenders: Tie Down's UV-Protected Plastic Fenders are constructed with high-quality polyethylene, with UV protection that shields the fender from sunlight exposure to prevent fading, cracking, and degradation. Available in both black and white finishes, these fenders are suitable for both normal and low-profile tires, accommodating 8" to 12" wheels.
- Bracket-Less Plastic Fenders: Tie Down's innovative "Bracket-less" Plastic Fender is specially engineered to mount directly to your frame without the need for fender brackets, and changing the fender position is hassle-free. This fender accommodates wheels up to 12 inches and is available in either black or silver.
- “SUV” Style & Tandem Plastic Fenders: Tie Down's "SUV" Tandem-Style Plastic Fenders feature individually molded front and rear sections that seamlessly bolt together without modifications, and are engineered to be corrosion-proof and impact-resistant.
- Adjustable Tandem Metal Fenders: The standout feature of Tie Down's Adjustable Fender is its flexibility in size — adjustable between 60–72 inches in length to accommodate almost all dual-axle trailer sizes, measuring 9 inches wide and 16 inches in height.
Corrosion Resistance Meets Practical Installation
Every fender in Tie Down's lineup is engineered with real-world conditions in mind. Tie Down's Flush Fender Brackets are galvanized metal brackets accommodating 8-inch to 12-inch plastic fenders, available in both flush-mount and offset-mount styles for versatility. With their galvanized construction, these brackets are built to withstand the harsh marine environment, providing a sturdy and reliable attachment point that keeps fenders securely in place during transportation. For those seeking a modern step-capable option, the high-strength HDPE construction is lightweight yet impact-resistant, with a UV-stable black finish that maintains its color, while a reinforced ribbed step surface adds convenience and a molded arch shields against splash, dirt, and gravel.
Built in the USA to dependable manufacturing standards, Tie Down fenders provide reliable performance and easy bolt-on installation. Whether you're replacing a worn fender on a fishing boat trailer or upgrading to a cleaner, bracket-free look, Tie Down Engineering's fender range offers the material quality, size coverage, and installation flexibility that serious trailer owners demand.
