It has a smooth stainless steel construction that resists scuffing and corrosion, making it suited to the wet, salt-exposed conditions common around boat seating pedestals. The base is square in shape, measuring 7 inches by 7 inches, with a centered mounting hole sized for a 3 inch diameter socket. This socket base is interchangeable between Attwood LakeSport 238 Series and 238 Series pedestal systems, so it can be used to install or replace a base across either line without needing a different part. It functions as the deck-mounted foundation that accepts a matching pedestal socket, providing the load-bearing connection between the boat deck and a seat pedestal. Because it is stainless steel rather than painted or coated aluminum, it holds up to repeated exposure to water and sun without flaking or rusting at the mounting points. At 3.3 pounds, it is substantial enough to provide a rigid base without adding excessive weight to the installation area. Boat owners replacing a worn, cracked, or corroded socket base, or outfitting a new pedestal seat location, can use the 238333-1 as a like-for-like stainless steel base sized to standard 238 Series hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Attwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 238333-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fishing Boat Pedestal Socket Base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7 Inches x 7 Inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Hole Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 Inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 022697238337\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Interchangeable between LakeSport 238 Series and 238 Series bases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterchangeable between Attwood LakeSport 238 Series and 238 Series pedestal socket systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo specific OEM cross-reference numbers are listed for this base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the Attwood 238333-1 socket base?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Attwood 238333-1 socket base measures 7 inches by 7 inches and is square in shape with a centered mounting hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat diameter mounting hole does this socket base require?\u003c\/strong\u003e A 3 inch diameter mounting hole is required to install the Attwood 238333-1 238 Series Socket Base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 238333-1 base interchangeable with other Attwood pedestal bases?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 238333-1 is interchangeable between Attwood LakeSport 238 Series and 238 Series pedestal systems, so it fits either line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the Attwood 238 Series Socket Base made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from stainless steel, chosen to resist scuffing and corrosion in marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Attwood 238333-1 socket base weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 238333-1 socket base weighs 3.3 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat shape is the mounting hole on this base?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Attwood 238333-1 has a centered, square-shaped base with a round mounting hole 3 inches in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this base rust or corrode over time on a boat deck?\u003c\/strong\u003e Its stainless steel construction is designed to improve resistance to scuffing and corrosion compared to non-stainless bases, which suits the 238333-1 for continuous marine deck exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Attwood 238333-1 a genuine Attwood part or an aftermarket copy?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 238333-1 is a genuine Attwood 238 Series component, not an aftermarket reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the UPC for this socket base?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Attwood 238333-1 238 Series Socket Base carries UPC 022697238337.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this base be used to replace a worn or cracked pedestal socket base?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 238333-1 is intended as a direct stainless steel replacement base for the Attwood LakeSport 238 Series and 238 Series pedestal systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Attwood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48989667918043,"sku":"ATT-238333-1","price":92.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/238_Series_Stainless_Steel_7x7_Square_Center_Hole_Socket_Base_Top_Down_View__92712.1722494233.500.750.jpg?v=1785188586","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/attwood-238333-1-238-series-stainless-steel-socket-base-7-x-7-square-center-hole-fishing-boat-pedestal-mount","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
