TACO Marine Low Profile Manual Seat Slide, 11-1/8 in x 36 in, For 41-54 in Seats, 3-5/8 in Travel

Overview

The TACO Marine M20-3611 is a low-profile adjustable seat slide for helm chairs and bench seats where fore-and-aft position matters at the console. It is sized as an 11-1/8" x 36" manual slide and is made for seats from 41" to 54" wide, giving the operator a practical way to fine-tune reach to the wheel, throttle, displays, and footrest.

This slide has five equally spaced locking positions with up to 3-5/8" of travel. The front activation paddle moves with the seat, so the release remains accessible in every position, which is useful on center consoles, pilothouses, and helm benches where several people may use the same seat during a day on the water.

A precision-machined 6000-series aluminum chassis, self-lubricated polymer glides, and a double pin positive side lock give the assembly the support and controlled movement needed for marine seating. The slide meets ABYC H31 testing standards and is listed with a 1.85" height, 36" width, 12.43" length, and 22.36 lb weight.

Installation and fit

This slide is intended for larger helm chairs and bench seating, especially layouts in the 41" to 54" width range. The recommended seat length or depth is 12" to 14", which helps keep the seat supported properly through the slide travel.

The universal mounting bolt pattern is meant for box applications, making it a practical retrofit or build-out option for helm boxes, leaning post seating, and bench bases where a manual sliding function is needed. Before installation, confirm the base structure, fastener pattern, seat width, and available clearance in front of and behind the seat.

Use on board

At the helm, a small adjustment can make a big difference in comfort and control. The 3-5/8" travel range lets the operator move closer for tighter throttle and steering control, then shift back when seated for longer runs or dockside use.

This seat slide is a strong match for boat owners, builders, and refit shops working with wide helm benches or chairs that need simple manual adjustment without adding electrical controls or extra system integration.

Maintenance and care

Like any moving hardware on a boat, the slide should be kept clean and checked periodically for debris, loose mounting hardware, and smooth lock engagement. A fresh-water rinse after saltwater use helps remove salt and grit from the slide area, especially around the paddle, glides, and locking mechanism.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
