{"product_id":"ilca-rudder-gudgeon-allen","title":"ILCA Rudder Gudgeon – Allen","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe gudgeons are what your rudder head hangs on, and they take every load the blade puts through the transom. Allen makes the original ILCA pattern in high strength plastic, and the same part fits both the top and the bottom position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlastic is the right call here. It will not corrode, it will not set up electrolysis against the fittings around it, and it gives slightly under shock load instead of working the transom. Worn gudgeons show up as side to side play in the rudder head, which you feel as vagueness in the tiller long before anything actually breaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pin hole takes standard ILCA pintles and the fixing holes sit on 110.9 mm centres. Screws are not included, and a boat takes two. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Allen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllen has been making dinghy fittings in Southminster, Essex for decades, and many of the original Laser deck fittings came out of that factory. Made in the UK and guaranteed for life against manufacturing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Allen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54916429939017,"sku":"LWS-ALLN-A485","price":6.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0971\/4178\/4905\/files\/A.485-1.jpg?v=1784834755","url":"https:\/\/livewatersports.eu\/products\/ilca-rudder-gudgeon-allen","provider":"LiveWatersports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
