Perko 1060PB0DP Chrome-Plated 2-Pin Plug-In Light Base, 5 Degree Rake, 3-3/4 x 1-3/4 Inch

The Perko 1060PB0DP is a chrome-plated plug-in light base built to mount a Perko plug-in style navigation or stern light with a 5 degree rake. The base combines a black plastic body with a chrome-plated zinc alloy plug-in fitting and a waterproof snap-on cover to keep the electrical connection protected from spray and moisture. It uses a 2-pin, 2-wire plug-in connector so the matching light fixture can be seated and removed without hardwiring, which simplifies bulb servicing and fixture replacement at the dock. A locking collar is included with the base to secure the fixture in place and to allow the base to accept older plug-in style light fixtures for interchangeability. Mounting is done with number 8 screws through the base flange, and the base measures 3-3/4 inches by 1-3/4 inches at the footprint. Because the fitting is a standard Perko plug-in interface, it is intended for pairing with Perko plug-in bow, stern, or all-round lights that share this same 2-pin connector and 5 degree rake angle. This is a base only; it does not include the light fixture itself.
