Sea-Dog 041606-1 Open Base Cleat, 6 Inch, Investment Cast 316 Stainless Steel

The Sea-Dog 041606-1 is a 6 inch open base cleat built for easy line tie-off on deck, dock, or dinghy. It is investment cast from 316 stainless steel, a grade chosen for its resistance to saltwater corrosion, so the cleat holds its finish and structural integrity in a marine environment far better than plated steel or lower-grade alloys. The open base design gives quick access for wrapping and releasing dock lines, and the classic profile suits traditional boat and dock hardware layouts.

This cleat has a 6 inch overall length and a 2-1/4 inch base width. It installs with four 1/4 inch flat head thru-bolts (bolts are not included), so plan to have matching hardware and backing on hand for a secure through-deck installation. At 0.378 pounds, it is a compact, easy-to-handle piece of hardware suited to a wide range of boats and dock setups.
