Waterproof Inserts

Ocean Kayak uses salt water resistant 'inserts' to attach components on all NZ made kayaks.

Facts on Inserts

  • 100% waterproof
  • Very strong
  • Moulded into the kayak at manufacture
  • A superior attachment system

Other kayak brands use self tapping screws and rivets to attach components. using rivets means holes must be drilled into your kayak and therefore they are prone to leakage. Screws are also prone to leakage and sharp dangerous screw points may protrude into the kayak.

All our components are attached using 'inserts', strap attachment, saddle, recessed button, rudder, scotty rod holders and more...

Insist on kayaks with inserts!
