Sea-Dog Bow Chock 060040-1, 316 Stainless Steel, 4-3/4 Inch, Pair

The Sea-Dog Bow Chock 060040-1 gives your mooring and dock lines a smooth, controlled lead off the bow, protecting your deck from abrasion caused by working lines under load. Each chock is designed with rounded edges set at a proper slant, a shape that prevents chafing as the line moves with the boat's motion. This part is sold as a matched pair, with both the left (port) and right (starboard) bow chocks included, so one purchase outfits both sides of the bow.

Construction is investment cast 316 stainless steel, a grade chosen for its resistance to marine corrosion and its strength under the repeated load of mooring and dock lines. The chock measures 4-3/4 inches along its A dimension, with a 5/8 inch B dimension, a 1/2 inch C dimension, and a 3-1/4 inch D dimension, and each chock mounts with a #10 flat head fastener (fasteners are not included and must be sourced separately). At 0.27 pounds, it is a compact, low-profile fitting suited to the bow of small to mid-size boats.
