Founded by Ron Thomas in 1973, R.E. Thomas Marine Hardware, Inc. has been manufacturing precision machine parts and components for a wide range of industries, including marine, for nearly half a century.
In 2003, the company acquired a line of bronze marine hardware giving Mr. Thomas a new and exciting venue to research, design, and improve for the boating industry. Mr. Thomas’s innovations in marine hardware and running gear helped revolutionize “Downeast Style” boats by allowing boat builders and marine mechanics to safely keep pace with the ever-increasing demands of today’s trend in higher horsepower engines.
Today, the company remains dedicated to customer service, innovation and manufacturing the safest and most reliable marine hardware and running gear available.
Our manufacturing facility is located on the coast of Downeast Maine in the town of Hancock. In addition to our close proximity to some of the country’s finest boat builders, our website has enabled R.E. Thomas to introduce our rugged, reliable products to a diverse marine audience across the country and we’re delighted by the feedback we’ve received from our expanded customer base.
All of our marine components are machined and quality inspected on site at our production facility. Due to the unique application of our products, we welcome phone and email questions surrounding product specifications and custom orders. Please don’t hesitate to call with any questions you may have.
Boating safety is something R.E. Thomas Marine Hardware, Inc. takes seriously. Unlike manufacturers who have succumbed to the pressures of economics (material cost is high, so lighten the product weight) we will never compromise our products with just profit making decisions. We will maintain the safest, strongest, most precision marine hardware available. With more and more horsepower being used in commercial as well as recreational boats today, the demands on most of our products have increased dramatically. We continue to redesign for strength and durability. One must remember, the cheapest part is not necessarily the least costly; especially when you spend many hours of your life on the ocean.
R.E. Thomas Marine Hardware Inc., thrives on a challenge, so custom product orders remain an integral part of our business. We are continually designing new products and improving the products we currently offer. Look over our website and if you have a question, email or pick up the phone and let many years of knowledge and experience guide you through your purchase of quality marine hardware.
