Sea-Dog Flat Head Open Base Cleat, 5 Inch, Galvanized Cast Iron

The Sea-Dog 5 inch Flat Head Open Base Cleat is a hot dipped galvanized cast iron dock and deck cleat designed for smaller recreational boats and recreational docks. Its open base and flat head design give it a low profile that lies flatter against the mounting surface than a raised-base cleat, making it easy to walk over and less likely to snag lines or feet on deck. The corrosion resistant hot dipped galvanizing protects the cast iron body against the marine environment, holding up to saltwater spray and everyday dock use.

This cleat installs with two flat head thru-bolts sized for a #12 fastener (bolts not included), so hardware is countersunk for a clean, snag-free finish. It measures 5 inches overall (A), with a base footprint of 1-5/16 inches (B) by 1-1/16 inches (C) and an overall width of 2-3/16 inches (D), giving a compact profile suited to smaller craft and dock applications. Sea-Dog notes this cleat is not recommended for large boats or commercial applications, so it is best matched to recreational boats and residential dock hardware where a smaller, lighter-duty cleat is appropriate.
