Sea-Dog 8-Inch Galvanized Iron Open Base Cleat
Sea-Dog 8-Inch Galvanized Iron Open Base Cleat — Product description
The Sea-Dog 8-inch open base cleat is a galvanized iron tie-off for boaters who want a solid, no-fuss anchor point for dock lines and fenders. It measures 8 inches long by 2-1/8 inches tall, a mid-size cleat that bolts right down to a deck or dock plank.
This is Sea-Dog's 8-inch open base cleat, cast from galvanized iron for boaters who want a strong tie-off point without paying stainless prices. It runs 8 inches long and stands 2-1/8 inches tall, a common mid-size cleat that handles dock lines, spring lines, and fender ties on most trailerable boats and small dock sections.
The open base design puts the mounting holes out in the open where you can reach them with a socket, so through-bolting to a deck or a dock plank is straightforward. Galvanizing gives the iron a zinc coating that fights rust in freshwater and holds up fine in occasional saltwater use. If you're rigging a permanent dock that stays wet year-round in salt, stainless is the longer-term call, but for the money this cleat does honest work.
It ships in bulk packaging, so it's a good pick when you're outfitting a whole dock or replacing a few tired cleats at once. Simple, strong, and easy to bolt down.
