It gives boaters a versatile, movable cleat point for securing dock lines or hanging fenders without permanently mounting hardware to the hull or deck. The S-shape body accommodates dock lines up to 3\/4 inch, making it suitable for larger boats that need a heavier-duty line capacity than a standard fixed cleat. A 1-1\/2 inch pipe diameter lets the cleat drop directly into standard rod holders that measure 1-5\/8 inches in diameter, so it can be inserted and removed as needed rather than drilled and bolted in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond securing dock lines, the cleat includes a loop hole in its design so fenders can be hung over the side of the boat, giving it dual use as both a line cleat and a fender hanger. It is constructed of stainless steel, which stands up to repeated saltwater exposure better than painted or coated hardware. The cleat ships packaged in a mesh bag, which makes it easy to rinse and air dry after use and helps prevent it from scratching the deck or other gear in storage. This is a portable, universal-fit accessory rather than a model-specific replacement part, so it is not tied to a particular boat make or engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e TACO Marine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e F16-0861POL-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCleat Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e S-shape, 15 degree, multi-purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCleat Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDock Line Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Holder Fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-5\/8 inches in diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Portable Cleat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 631376093725\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the TACO Marine F16-0861POL-1 used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The F16-0861POL-1 is a portable stainless steel cleat used to secure dock lines or hang fenders without permanent mounting, dropping into any standard rod holder for on-demand use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size dock line does this cleat accommodate?\u003c\/strong\u003e It accommodates dock lines up to 3\/4 inch, which suits larger boats that need more line capacity than a small fixed cleat provides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the F16-0861POL-1 fit standard rod holders?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, its 1-1\/2 inch pipe diameter fits into standard rod holders that measure 1-5\/8 inches in diameter, so it can be inserted and removed as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does this cleat weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The TACO Marine F16-0861POL-1 weighs 4 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the F16-0861POL-1 cleat made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made of stainless steel, which resists corrosion from repeated saltwater exposure better than painted or coated hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this cleat be used to hang fenders?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the cleat has a loop hole built into its design specifically for hanging fenders over the side of the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the F16-0861POL-1 a permanent, drilled installation?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, it is a portable cleat designed to drop into a standard rod holder rather than being bolted or drilled into the deck or hull.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the TACO Marine F16-0861POL-1 packaged?\u003c\/strong\u003e It ships in a mesh bag, which makes it easy to rinse and air dry after use and helps avoid scratching deck or storage surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this cleat fit a specific boat make or model?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the F16-0861POL-1 is a universal, portable accessory that fits any rod holder with a 1-5\/8 inch diameter rather than a specific boat model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the 15 degree multi-purpose design refer to?\u003c\/strong\u003e It refers to the angled S-shape body of the F16-0861POL-1, which is engineered to hold dock lines securely while also serving as a fender hanging point.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taco Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49031444725979,"sku":"TAC-F16-0861POL-1","price":172.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/31V2S-xrgdL.jpg?v=1785214208","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/taco-marine-portable-cleat-stainless-steel-15-degree-multi-purpose-design-f16-0861pol-1","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
