CATAMARAN MODULAR PONTOON FRAME - BASIC, 100mm STOCK
A single piece, fabricated aluminium, CATAMARAN MODULAR PONTOON FRAME - BASIC, 100mm STOCK module, designed to accept 2 x CUTLASS type float units (shown with floats, but priced separately). Use as work rafts, mooring pontoons, or floating home base components of the most basic type. If intending to deck or floor directly from the frame, note that empty cavity float tops can swell with the expansion and contraction of the contained air, and as the 100mm tall framing finishes flush to the tops of the floats, deck surfaces can be affected; consider BASIC_150, CB or DJ150 frame variants or foam-filled floats to avoid interference. All frames include fixings for float attachment and frame-to-frame connection, but bolted together arrays rely on rails, side panels, or a cabin structure for real vertebral stiffness. If using as part of a finger mooring network or multi-mod jetty, utilise articulated joints from our 'Connection' product range for simple and flexible assembly.
- When using as a single module raft, choose one framing unit, remembering to also pick 2 x CUTLASS type floats of your choice (6mm wall, 8mm wall, and foam filled versions available).
- For multi-module pontoons, houseboats, and floating home bases, see image three describing cumulative lengths and float count of connected modules. Add 2 x of your choice of CUTLASS type float units per framing module used to achieve your desired length.
- If using as part of a finger mooring network, multi-mod jetty or floating walkway, again remember to add 2 x CUTLASS type floats per framing module, then pick from our selection of articulated jointing components, access ramps, mooring accessories, as well as decking and trim.
- Advised maximum dimensions can be exceeded in special circumstances, talk to us about custom fabrications.

FLOAT UNITS PER MOD: 2 x CUTLASS TYPE
MINIMUM X-DIM: 1.888m
STANDARD X-DIM: 2.5m
MAXIMUM X-DIM: 3.848m *
MAX (SINGLE MOD) LOAD: 762.99kg *
*The quoted maximum X-DIM assumes normal usage and siting. Your circumstances and use case may be able to significantly exceed this, or require shorter than suggested spanning. Talk to us for advice if unsure.
*The advised maximum load refers to the standard 2.5m beam type of a single floated pontoon. Multiply by chosen number of modules used for larger arrays, and when increasing the frame dimensions beyond standard, allow contingency for the added weight.
