Gen3 Marine Heavy Duty Galvanized Dock Cleat, 15 Inch

The Gen3 Marine Heavy Duty Dock Cleat is a 15 inch galvanized cleat built for securing boats, jet skis, kayaks, and other watercraft to a dock, pier, or piling. Its galvanized finish resists rust and corrosion, allowing it to hold up in both freshwater and saltwater environments over repeated exposure to sun, spray, and moisture. The cleat is made from marine grade metal with heavy duty construction designed to handle the strain of mooring and dock lines without deforming or loosening over time.

This dock cleat is well suited for small to mid-size boats, jet skis, kayaks, and other watercraft that need a reliable tie-off point at a dock or pier. Its size and open horn design make it easy to cleat off standard dock lines quickly, whether for short-term tie-ups or long-term mooring. Because it is galvanized rather than painted or coated, the finish protects the base metal from the inside out rather than simply sitting on the surface, which helps it continue to perform after the cosmetic finish shows wear.
