It is die cast from chrome plated zinc, giving it a bright, corrosion-resistant finish while keeping the part lightweight and affordable. Because it is a zinc-bodied fitting rather than a dissimilar metal such as bronze or stainless, Sea-Dog recommends it specifically for aluminum vessels, where it will not create the galvanic corrosion issues that can occur when incompatible metals are mounted directly to an aluminum hull.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis socket is built for light service duty, making it well suited to rowboats, dinghies, tenders, and other small craft that are rowed occasionally rather than used for heavy, continuous rowing. The angle mount design lets the socket be installed at an angle relative to the mounting surface, which is useful where a straight vertical or top mount is not practical. Sea-Dog recommends this oarlock socket for freshwater use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 580451-1 has a 1\/2 inch pin diameter and an overall length of 4-5\/8 inches, and it is packaged 10 pairs per case.
