Parts Desk Insights

Best Use Case: Use when your oarlock socket is sized for 5/8″ but your oar/oarlock setup requires a 1/2″ interfacethis bushing steps the socket down for better mating at the oarlock.

Common Issues: If the bushing doesnt sit correctly, confirm youre measuring the socket opening youre stepping down (5/8″ to 1/2″). Also check the oarlock area for any debris or wear that could affect how the bushing seats.
