Perko Stainless Steel Spring Clamps 0502DP2STS, 1 Inch to 1-3/4 Inch I.D., 2-1/4 Inch Projection, Pair

The Perko 0502DP2STS spring clamp pair holds boat hooks, poles, and similar gear securely against a rail, bulkhead, or other mounting surface. Each clamp accepts items with an inside diameter ranging from 1 inch minimum up to 1-3/4 inches maximum, with a 2-1/4 inch projection and a 5/8 inch clamp width, giving enough spring tension to keep a pole seated in rough conditions while still allowing quick one-hand removal. The clamps are built from stainless steel rated to 5000 pounds per square inch tensile strength, so they resist corrosion in saltwater and freshwater marine environments better than painted or plated steel alternatives. Mounting holes are pre-drilled, so no additional drilling is required before installing with the buyer's own screws. This is an economical way to store boat hooks, paddles, gaff poles, or similar round-stock items within easy reach on deck. The set is sold as a pair (part number 0502DP2STS), matching the two clamps typically needed to secure a single pole at two points along its length. Perko also offers a smaller-capacity version of this clamp (0502DP1STS) for items with a 1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inch inside diameter, so confirm the diameter of the item being stored before ordering.
