Perko Side Light - Black Plastic, Red Lens

The Perko Side Light with black plastic housing and red lens is a marine-grade navigation light engineered for vessel compliance and safe nighttime operation. Designed to meet marine lighting standards, this side light provides the red lens visibility required for port-side identification, making it an essential component of any boat's navigation system whether operating inland, coastal, or offshore waters.

Built with a durable black polymer housing, the light arrives pre-wired with a double contact socket and 3 feet of 16/3-SO marine-grade cable rated for wet environments. The watertight access cap enables straightforward bulb replacement and lens cleaning without compromising the sealed interior, critical for maintaining optical clarity and preventing corrosion in salt-air conditions. The fixture accepts 12, 24, 32, or 120-volt bulbs (not included), allowing integration into diverse marine electrical systems. Mounting uses a standard 1/4-inch screw with an overall height of 7.5 inches and a lens height of 4.5 inches, proportioned to project light effectively across typical vessel configurations.

This Perko side light is specified for commercial vessels, fishing boats, yachts, and recreational cruisers that require USCG-compliant navigation lighting. The red lens communicates port-side position during low-light hours, ensuring visibility to other watercraft and meeting federal boating regulations. Mariners who operate at dawn, dusk, or after dark depend on proper navigation lights for collision avoidance and legal compliance. The pre-wired configuration and marine-rated cable reduce installation complexity compared to field-wired alternatives, while the sealed housing protects against spray, moisture, and UV degradation typical in marine service.

Perko has established itself as a trusted manufacturer of marine hardware and lighting fixtures across commercial and recreational boating sectors. The Perko Side Light price point reflects both the build quality and the brand's reputation for reliability in high-corrosion environments. When purchasing a Perko Side Light for sale, verify your system voltage and bulb compatibility before installation to ensure seamless integration with your vessel's existing electrical architecture.
