Steps to Properly Install Magnetic Snaps on Boat Cushions

As lifelong boaters, we know firsthand how frustrating traditional cushion snaps can be. They’re often stubborn, hard to align, and can turn a relaxing day on the water into a tug-of-war with your boat seating. That’s why we created It’s a SNAP! — a simple, reliable, and easy-to-install magnetic cushion snap replacement for boats. Our high-strength magnetic system eliminates the struggle, making it easier than ever to secure your cushions with minimal effort.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to properly install our magnetic boat cushion snaps so you can spend more time enjoying your boat and less time wrestling with your cushions.

Why Choose Magnetic Snaps?

Traditional snaps require a perfect alignment and a strong pull, which can be challenging when you’re dealing with worn hardware or awkward seating angles. Magnetic snaps for pontoon boat cushions, yacht seating, or other marine applications solve this problem with a quick and secure hold. Here’s why our customers love them:

• Frustration-free design: No more struggling or pinched fingers.

• Durability: Our high-strength marine cushion snaps are built to withstand the elements.

• Simple retrofitting: They easily fit into your existing snap locations.

• Quick-release capability: Cushions can be removed or reattached in seconds.

Our magnetic cushion fastener system for boats is ideal for anyone who wants a practical and lasting solution to outdated cushion hardware.

What You’ll Need

To install your magnetic cushion snap replacement kit, you don’t need much more than the magnets themselves and a few basic tools. Each 12-pack kit comes with:

• Magnet A (to insert into your existing cushion snap)

• Magnet C (to replace the snap head on your hatch or seating surface)

A simple screwdriver may be needed for removing old snap heads, but no specialized tools are required. That’s part of the beauty of our easy-install system.

Step-by-Step Installation

Follow these steps to retrofit your boat cushions with our magnetic snaps:

Step 1: Insert Magnet A

Insert Magnet A into the existing snap on your boat cushion. It slides into place where your old snap used to be, instantly transforming your cushion into a magnetic-ready piece.

Step 2: Replace the Snap Head with Magnet C

Remove the existing snap head on your hatch or seating base and replace it with Magnet C. This step creates the magnetic connection point for your cushion to easily attach and detach.

Step 3: Enjoy the Convenience

Once installed, you’ll immediately notice how smooth and effortless it is to secure your cushions. No more forcing snaps into place or dealing with misalignment — just a simple, satisfying “snap” every time.

Safety First

Because these are powerful magnets, we provide clear guidelines for handling them safely. Always keep them away from sensitive electronics and be mindful of pinching hazards during installation. Proper handling ensures a safe and long-lasting setup.
