The Lee's Tackle RH570 Stainless Steel Heavy Duty Bulkhead Mount with Swivel Base is engineered for serious offshore anglers who demand the most from their rod holders. The rotating swivel base lets a bent butt rod rotate freely when lateral pressure is applied at the tip, keeping the line tracking cleanly over the roller and dramatically reducing the risk of line fraying or sheared holder pins — a critical advantage when targeting Giant Bluefin Tuna with reel drags in the 60-pound range. Two nylon drag washers and a stainless steel lock nut at the base allow precise torque adjustment. Used with straight butt rods, it functions as a conventional rod holder, and rods can be manually rotated to keep the line on the tip roller. The 2.25" OD x 10.5" tube accommodates heavy tackle with ease.
