Sea-Dog 040106 6-Inch Galvanized Open Base Cleat
Sea-Dog 040106 6-Inch Galvanized Open Base Cleat — Product description
The Sea-Dog 040106 is a 6-inch open-base cleat cast in galvanized iron, a plain, rust-resistant tie-off for decks, docks, and pilings. Open-base mounting and well-spaced horns make it easy to bolt down and easy to tie off to. It ships in a bulk pack, so it's cheap enough to use anywhere you need a hold.
Sea-Dog's 040106 is a 6-inch open-base cleat cast in galvanized iron, the kind of plain, no-nonsense hardware you bolt down and forget about. Open base means there's a mounting hole at each end, so you run your fasteners straight through and snug it to the deck, a dock plank, or a piling. The galvanized coating is what keeps the iron from rusting out in the weather, so it holds up fine in fresh water and takes the occasional splash of salt.
Six inches is a handy mid-size cleat. It's big enough to take the dock and anchor line you'd run on a small to mid-size boat, and small enough that it won't crowd a narrow rail or a swim platform. The horns give you plenty of room to throw a clean cleat hitch and still have line to spare.
It ships in a bulk pack, so if you're rigging a whole dock or replacing a worn set, you're not paying for fancy packaging you'll just toss. Simple, strong, and cheap enough to use everywhere you need a tie-off point.
