Sea-Dog Round Horn Oarlock 580425-1, 2 Inch Horn, 1/2 Inch Pin, Chrome Plated Zinc
The Sea-Dog Round Horn Oarlock 580425-1 is a pin-style oarlock built for light service duty on small boats and tenders. Its round horn design cradles and secures the oar in place through varying sea conditions, giving rowers consistent control without the oar slipping free of the socket. The oarlock is constructed of die cast chrome plated zinc, a material choice that is specifically recommended for aluminum vessels because it does not cause galvanic corrosion issues when in contact with aluminum hulls and hardware. The chrome plating also provides a bright, corrosion-resistant finish suited to everyday use.
This oarlock is intended for freshwater use and is sized with a 2 inch round horn, a 1/2 inch pin, and an overall catalog dimension of 2-1/4 inches. It ships as part of a 10-pair pack configuration from the manufacturer, making it a practical option for outfitting multiple boats or keeping spares on hand. The round horn style is one of several Sea-Dog oarlock configurations, distinguished from ribbed and pin-style horns by its smooth, rounded horn profile.
