Perko 1306DP1CHR Closed Base Cleat, Chrome Plated Zinc Alloy, 4-1/2 Inch, Sold in Pairs

The Perko 1306DP1CHR is a closed base deck cleat built for securing dock lines and mooring rope on boats and marine docks. It is cast from zinc alloy and finished in bright chrome plating over a black polymer base, giving it a clean, corrosion-resistant look that holds up to marine exposure while the closed horn design keeps rope securely captured during mooring, towing, or dock tie-up. The overall length is 4-1/2 inches, and it is rated for rope up to 3/8 inch in diameter, making it well suited for smaller boats, tenders, and auxiliary dock cleats where a compact fitting is needed. Mounting is done through the base using screws sized for a #10 screw. This cleat is sold as a retail pair (two cleats per package), so a single purchase outfits both sides of a bow, stern, or dock cleat pair without needing a second order. The chrome-plated zinc alloy construction resists rust and saltwater corrosion better than uncoated steel, while the polymer base helps prevent scratching or marring of gelcoat and deck surfaces during installation. This is Perko's Fig. 1306 closed base cleat line, distinct from the larger 6 inch, 1/2 inch rope size version offered in the same series.
