Its die cast zinc body is chrome plated for a bright, corrosion-resistant finish, and because zinc does not react galvanically with aluminum, this oarlock is a strong choice for aluminum vessels where dissimilar-metal corrosion is a concern. The ribbed horn shape helps hold the oar securely in the lock through changing sea conditions, so rowers keep consistent control of their stroke without the oar slipping or chattering in the socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach oarlock measures 2 inches across the horn (A), with a 1\/2 inch pin\/shaft dimension (B) and an overall height of 2-1\/4 inches (C). This listing is for the pair (two oarlocks), and each pair weighs 0.546 pounds. Sea-Dog recommends this oarlock for freshwater use. It is intended as a matched pair for standard oar mounting and is a straightforward, durable option for dinghies, tenders, and other small craft rowed with traditional oars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sea-Dog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 580412-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ribbed Horn Oarlock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Die Cast Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimension A (Horn Width):\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimension B (Pin\/Shaft):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimension C (Overall Height):\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.546 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Freshwater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 035514580373\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Sea-Dog 580412-1 oarlock made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is constructed of die cast zinc with a chrome plated finish, giving the 580412-1 ribbed horn oarlock a durable, corrosion-resistant surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this oarlock safe to use on an aluminum boat?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
