Concept2 oarlocks are shaped for easy oar handling with positive stable positioning on both drive and recovery. Oarlocks are sold with replaceable bushings for pin fit and 1–7 degrees of pitch adjustment. Our oarlocks are made of unbreakable, supertough nylon and feature stainless steel gates. They meet FISA standards for oarlock turning diameter.
Bushings
Important: Pin diameter must be specified at time of order to determine what size bushings you’ll need. Bushings are sold by color. Refer to the following chart.
| Bushing Color | Pin Diameters | |
|---|---|---|
| Sweep | Scull | |
| Black | 9/16 in | ½ in (with adapter*) |
| Blue | 13 mm | 13 mm |
| White | ½ in | 7/16 in |
| *Adapter for “crescent” type scull backstand fits into 1/2in scull bushing. | ||
Bushings are sold on “rakes,” with each rake holding a complete set of 16 bushings (you’ll get four of each pitch: 5˚–3˚, 6˚–2˚, 7˚–1˚, 4˚–4˚). One rake provides enough bushings for two oarlocks.
