FAQ
Q1: Will 316 SS really never rust?
A1: Correct—316 contains 2-3 % Mo, giving lifetime immunity to chlorides; polish yearly to keep the mirror shine.
Q2: What oar diameters fit the ZB1501?
A2: Accepts shaft diameters 18-19 mm (use PVC shim for smaller oars).
Q3: Can I weld it to an aluminum gunwale?
A3: Use 316L filler or bolt-on method; avoid direct AL-SS weld to stop galvanic attack.
QQ4: Does it drain water?
A4: Yes—5° down-tilt + 4 mm weep hole at base keep socket dry and free of salt build-up.
Q5: Is the flange waterproof?
A5: Add a 3 mm neoprene gasket (supplied on request) for 100 % watertight deck penetration.
Q6: Do you supply a matching row-lock pin?
A6: Optional 316 SS split pin (Part # RP-PIN-19) available, MOQ 50 pcs.
