Sea-Dog Open Base Cleat 5 Inch, Black Nylon, Sold as a Pair

The Sea-Dog 043050-1 Open Base Cleat is a 5 inch black nylon cleat designed for securing dock lines and mooring lines on boats and docks. It is built with a molded-in recess in the base that traps sealant in place during installation, creating a more watertight seal around the mounting fasteners and helping to prevent water intrusion into the deck or dock surface below. The cleat is constructed of durable injection molded nylon that resists corrosion and UV degradation, making it a long-lasting choice for constant exposure to sun, salt water, and moisture.

This open base design mounts with two flat head fasteners (not included) sized for a #10 screw. The cleat measures 5 inches in overall length with a height of 1-1/16 inches. It is sold as a matched pair, with two cleats included per package. This 5 inch size is part of the Sea-Dog open base cleat lineup, which also includes smaller 3 inch and 4 inch sizes, and this same 5 inch cleat is also offered in white under a separate part number for buyers who want to match different deck or hull colors.
