Perko 1048P00DP Chrome-Plated 2-Pin Plug-In Light Base, Threaded Collar, 5 Degree Rake

The Perko 1048P00DP is a chrome-plated 2-pin plug-in light base built to mount and power a boat's stern or all-round navigation light. It combines a black plastic body with chrome-plated brass hardware for corrosion resistance in a marine environment. The base uses a threaded collar, which is the mounting style for Perko's Fig. 1048 base configuration, and includes a waterproof snap-on cover to protect the electrical connection from spray and rain. Its 2-pin plug-in design allows the matching light fixture to snap directly onto the base without hardwiring, simplifying both initial installation and future bulb or fixture replacement. The base measures 3.5 inches by 2 inches and is set at a 5 degree rake to help the mounted light sit at the correct angle on deck. It runs on a 12 volt system, matching standard boat electrical circuits. Because it is sold as the base only, it is intended for boat owners who need to replace a worn, cracked, or corroded plug-in base without replacing the entire light fixture, or who are wiring a new mounting point for a compatible plug-in style navigation light. Chrome-plated brass construction is used throughout for long-term durability against saltwater and UV exposure.
