Each socket is fitted with a plastic insert that cushions the oarlock shaft, reduces metal-on-metal wear, and allows the oarlock to be dropped in and lifted out quickly for storage or when switching between rowing and other propulsion. The socket accepts oarlocks up to 9\/16 inch, covering the sizing used on most recreational rowboats, dinghies, and small craft rigged for oars. Installation is straightforward: the socket mounts directly to the gunwale, giving a permanent, ready-to-use fitting so the oarlock itself can be removed when not rowing. This listing is for one pair of sockets (two pieces), enough to outfit both oar positions on a single boat. Built by Springfield Marine, a long-established maker of boat seating and rowing hardware, the 1840021 is a simple, durable replacement or upgrade part for anyone re-rigging a rowboat or replacing a worn or broken gunwale socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Springfield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1840021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oarlock Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Round gunwale socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOarlock Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits up to 9\/16 inch oarlocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sold in pairs (2 sockets)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Equivalent Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3001.9942\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits oarlocks up to 9\/16 inch in diameter; suitable for gunwale mounting on rowboats and small craft rigged for oars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e3001.9942\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size oarlocks does the Springfield 1840021 socket fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Springfield 1840021 oarlock socket fits oarlocks up to 9\/16 inch in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many sockets come in this listing?\u003c\/strong\u003e This listing is for one pair (2 sockets) of the Springfield 1840021 gunwale oarlock socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the mounting style of the 1840021 socket?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a round gunwale socket that mounts directly to the boat's gunwale, giving the oarlock a fixed, quick-release fitting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the insert made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 1840021 socket uses a plastic insert that cushions the oarlock shaft and reduces wear at the mounting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Springfield 1840021 have an OEM equivalent part number?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the OEM equivalent part number for the Springfield 1840021 is 3001.9942.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Springfield 1840021 oarlock socket weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Springfield 1840021 oarlock socket set weighs 0.5 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the oarlock be removed from the socket after installation?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the round gunwale socket design allows the oarlock to be dropped in or lifted out of the 1840021 socket quickly for storage or switching to other propulsion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Springfield 1840021 socket genuine Springfield Marine hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 1840021 is manufactured by Springfield Marine as a genuine replacement gunwale oarlock socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the 1840021 work if my current oarlock socket is broken or worn out?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 1840021 is designed as a direct replacement gunwale oarlock socket for boats needing a new or additional mounting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs installation of the 1840021 socket difficult?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the round socket mounts directly onto the gunwale for quick and easy installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springfield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025169162459,"sku":"S-M-1840021","price":23.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/img_3d194c6a-c1a2-41ef-a540-12144535090e.jpg?v=1785332825","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/springfield-oarlock-socket-1840021-round-gunwale-mount-fits-up-to-9-16-inch-oarlocks-sold-in-pairs","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
