Marine Scuttle

Marine scuttles are a type of marine hardware and hull item that falls under the supply class Marine Hardware And Hull Items in the supply group Ship And Marine Equipment.

A marine scuttle is a small opening or hatch in the deck or hull of a ship that allows access to various compartments or spaces below deck. It is typically circular or rectangular in shape and is equipped with a cover or door that can be opened or closed as needed.

Marine scuttles are commonly used for ventilation, access to storage areas, inspection of tanks or compartments, and emergency escape routes. They are designed to be watertight when closed to prevent water from entering the ship during rough seas or in the event of flooding.

These scuttles are made from durable materials such as steel or aluminum to withstand the harsh marine environment and are often equipped with locking mechanisms for added security. They can be found in various sizes and configurations to suit different ship designs and requirements.
