The Perko clam shell ventilator is a compact chrome-plated brass fitting for covering and directing airflow through a deck or cabin opening. Its curved shell shape helps shield the opening from direct spray while maintaining a clear path for passive ventilation. Chrome-plated brass construction gives the fitting a traditional bright marine finish with the durability of a metal body.
The base measures approximately 4 in x 3-3/4 in, making the vent easy to compare against an existing mounting footprint. The airflow opening is approximately 2-1/2 in wide by 1-5/8 in high. Perko specifies 6 mounting screws, allowing installers to plan fasteners and backing before placing the fitting.
