What is this G10 you guys are talking about????
heated/compressed fiberglass & resin.
stuff is tougher than tough and makes amazing backing plates.
well worth the money if you just wanna do it once and do it right.

Likwid,
Where is this G10 carried. I used Stainless 6" x 6" plates for all my rod holders as backing plates. And some 5200.

The problem with 5200 is if its something you MAY someday remove, you're gonna be in for a nightmare.

Rod holders are fine to bed with it since the only time you'd ever need to remove them is if something bad happened to the hull around them.
I'd leave them as is since they don't particularly see high loads and probably the 5200 alone will keep them in place forever.

No, 4200 E
1/2 the strength of 5200. less permanant for the reasons Ted mentioned.

I do think some resined/sealed 5/8" marine ply would suffice w/ SS fender washers, lock washer and nut.

g10 is pricey. I looked at it for the r/v, but I had some 1/4" Aluminum on hand, so went with that.

I use a heat gun when removing spray rails bedded with 5200, helps a great deal.
