Sea-Dog 582059-1 Oarlock Bushing, Reduces 5/8 Inch Oarlock Socket to 1/2 Inch, Polypropylene

The Sea-Dog 582059-1 Oarlock Bushing is a simple, purpose-built adapter that lets a smaller 1/2 inch oarlock pin work in a standard 5/8 inch oarlock socket. Rather than replacing an oarlock socket outright, this bushing drops in to bridge the size difference, giving boat owners an inexpensive way to match mismatched oar and socket hardware. It is constructed of durable injection molded polypropylene, a lightweight, corrosion-proof material well suited to constant exposure to water, sun, and salt spray, and it will not rust or corrode the way a metal insert would over time.

The bushing measures 1/2 inch by 1-9/16 inch by 5/8 inch and is sold per pair, with a standard pack of 10 pairs, making it easy to outfit a full boat or keep spares on hand. Its black finish blends in with most oarlock hardware rather than standing out. Because it is designed around the industry-common 5/8 inch oarlock socket size stepped down to a 1/2 inch pin, it fits a wide range of boats and oars using that size combination rather than being limited to one specific make or model.
