Sea-Dog 8-Inch Aluminum Open Base Cleat | 046108-1
Sea-Dog 8-Inch Aluminum Open Base Cleat | 046108-1 — Product description
The Sea-Dog aluminum flat cleat is simple deck hardware you bolt down once and forget about. It's an 8-inch cast aluminum cleat, light and rust-free, made for aluminum docks and aluminum boats where a heavy bronze or stainless piece just doesn't belong.
The Sea-Dog aluminum flat cleat is the kind of no-drama deck hardware you bolt down once and forget about. It's an 8-inch cleat cast from aluminum, so it's light and it won't rust on you. That makes it a natural fit for aluminum docks and aluminum boats where you don't want a heavy bronze or stainless piece weighing things down.
The open-base design gives you room to run a line under the horns and cleat off fast. And because the mounting holes are countersunk, your flat-head fasteners sit flush with the top of the cleat. No bolt heads sticking up to snag a line or catch a bare toe. It measures 8 inches end to end and stands 1-7/8 inches tall, a good general-purpose size for docklines and fenders on small to mid-size boats.
This one ships as a single cleat, so grab the count you need for your bow, stern, and spring lines.
