Sea-Dog Folding Stud Mount Cleat 041404-1, 4-1/2 Inch, 316 Stainless Steel
The Sea-Dog Folding Stud Mount Cleat (041404-1) is a highly polished investment cast 316 stainless steel cleat designed to lock down flat against the deck when not in use and flip back up when it is time to tie off. This folding action keeps the deck clear of a permanently upright cleat that could snag lines, sails, or feet when the boat is underway or at rest.
The cleat uses a surface mount, stud mount design, so no drain tubes or receptacles are required to prevent leaks into the deck below. Installation is straightforward: two standard bit size holes are drilled for the mounting studs, eliminating the need for cutouts or hole saws. The stud mounted fasteners are hidden beneath the deck surface, giving the topside an attractive, flush appearance with no visible bolt heads.
Constructed of corrosion resistant investment cast 316 stainless steel and finished with a high polish, this cleat is built to stand up to a marine environment while maintaining a clean, finished look. It is sized for 4-1/2 inch base applications and secures with a 1/4 inch-20 NC threaded fastener.
