How Do Electric Actuators Hold Up in Harsh Marine Environments and Saltwater Exposure?
I’ve been trying to figure out whether electric actuators can realistically survive long-term on a small boat without constant maintenance. I’m working on a little project for an adjustable fishing platform, and the area gets hit with salt spray pretty much every time I head out. I’ve had regular metal hardware rust out on me faster than expected, so I’m wondering if actuators are even worth considering in this kind of environment. Has anyone actually used them offshore or near saltwater for several seasons?
