If your Plantation Shutters have a plastic connection between the louver and tilt rod, then the Shutter is likely made of either vinyl or plastic.
 
Shutter StaplesOur Tilt Rod Replacement Kits can be used on vinyl shutters that utilize a shutter staple connection.  They will not work on a shutter that utilizes plastic T-fittings, or any other plastic connection.
 
Our Louver Replacement Kits can work on vinyl shutters that contain a solid louver.  If your vinyl louvers are solid, they will have shutter staples connecting them to the tilt bar that is located down the center of the panel.
