Sea-Dog Flat Head Open Base Cleat, 12 Inch, Hot-Dipped Galvanized Cast Iron
The Sea-Dog 040112 is a 12 inch flat head open base cleat built for securing dock lines on smaller recreational craft and recreational docks. It is cast from corrosion resistant hot dipped galvanized cast iron, giving it a durable finish that stands up to marine environments while keeping the classic open base cleat profile that lets lines run cleanly across the horns. The flat head design sits low and installs flush using two flat head thru-bolts (not included), which pass through the mounting holes for a secure, low-profile hold on the deck or dock surface. This cleat is intended for smaller recreational boats and recreational docks and is not recommended for large boats or commercial applications. Each unit measures 12 inches overall and is packed 5 to a standard pack. With its galvanized finish and cast iron construction, the Sea-Dog 040112 offers a reliable, corrosion resistant mounting point for dock lines, fender lines, and general tie-off duty on smaller vessels and dock structures.
