2012-10-19PETER VAN DINE: I had to buy the same brand of oarlocks as the oarlock sleeves in order to get a decent working fit!
2012-10-19WILLIAM RENEHAN: The inside diameter of the plastic sleeves is exactly 1/2 inch in diameter (measured with a micrometer). If your shanks are also exactly 1/2 inch in diameter the fit might be tight, but the 1/2 inch shanks on my oarlocks fit fine (just snug).
The quality of the sockets is very good.
Hope this helps!

2012-10-19JAMES WARDELL: I have a set of these but haven't installed them yet. A brand new oarlock that measures (with a caliper) 0.495" is so tight it won't go in all the way. I'm not sure whether the sockets will "wear in" or if I'll have to ream out the sockets a little.
2012-10-22RICHARD KESSENICH: The oarlock sockets are not available to measure as the boat is stored out of town. I do have the oar locks that I use in them and they measure a scant 1/2 inch...that be about 1/64 or so smaller than 1/2inch....so I'd say that the sockets should probably work with 1/2 in oarlocks.
I bought these awhile back but haven't installed them yet (mainly because of the fit). As another reviewer pointed out, they don't readily fit 1/2" oarlocks. I have a brand new set of oarlocks that measure .495" with a caliper and they are TIGHT. Really tight. I'm not sure if they will "wear in" or I'll need to ream the nylon bushings a little.

Comments about Perko Edge Mount Oarlock Sockets:
These were suppose to be 1/2" oar locks, but my 1/2" posts did not fit into them. The plastic sleeve on the inside is too small to receive them. [...] Now I have [$] worth (2 pair) that I cannot use without some modification to ream out the plastic so the oar post fits in. Not happy with the product [...].

Comments about Perko Edge Mount Oarlock Sockets:
I ordered a set of this sockets after discarding an imported bronze set with holed that wasn't even machined and all misaligned. This Perko set is die cast so the precision is embed in the mold, the alignment of the holes perfect and the faces flat and square. The plastic bushing reduces the noise.
