Perko Edge Mount Rowlock Socket - Zinc

The Perko Edge Mount Rowlock Socket in zinc is a marine-grade rowing hardware component designed for small craft, dinghies, and rowboats requiring reliable oar management. This edge-mounted socket serves as the pivot point for rowlock horns, enabling smooth rotation and secure oar placement during rowing operations. Built by Perko, a trusted manufacturer of marine hardware for over a century, this rowlock socket is engineered to withstand saltwater environments and repetitive use in demanding aquatic conditions.

Constructed from plain plated zinc alloy, this socket delivers corrosion resistance essential for waterborne applications while maintaining a lightweight profile. The zinc plating provides a durable protective barrier against rust and oxidation in both freshwater and saltwater settings. Black polymer bearings integrated into the socket design minimize friction, allowing the oar to pivot smoothly and reducing wear on both the oar and mounting hardware. The #10 screw fastening system ensures secure installation to boat gunwales or edges, while the compact 4 x 3 x 7 inch footprint accommodates space-constrained marine applications without compromising functionality.

This socket is compatible with Perko rowlock horn models 1227, 1262, and 1267, making it an ideal replacement or upgrade for existing rowing systems. Boaters, marine maintenance professionals, and boat builders benefit from this hardware's straightforward installation and proven durability. Whether restoring a classic rowing tender or upgrading oar retention on a small utility vessel, the Perko Edge Mount Rowlock Socket delivers the corrosion resistance and mechanical reliability required for years of reliable service on the water.
