Applications on board

A cleat is a dedicated fixing point for ropes: its presence simplifies maneuvers and helps keep the deck tidier, avoiding improvised solutions or suboptimal routes. This light aluminum alloy cleat can be considered in various typical situations:

• Dock mooring: management of bow or stern lines on a stable and easily accessible anchoring point.
• Deck line management: provision of a dedicated point for tying and securing during stops.
• Outfitting and refit: replacement of an existing cleat with a version of the same category, checking drilling and space requirements.
• Pleasure boats: integration on suitable surfaces where a line holding point is needed.

The choice of mounting position depends on the boat configuration and the line routes. During installation, it is useful to consider accessibility, the working angle of the lines, and the presence of fairleads or chocks already installed.

Operational advantages

• Suitability for the marine environment: aluminum alloy is a common choice for exposed components when a deck-suitable accessory is desired.
• Practical format: the length from 260 mm allows support and management of lines consistent with a deck accessory of this class.
• Plannable installation: the available drilling data (70 mm spacing, Ø 8 mm) help verify compatibility with existing holes or properly prepare the surface.
• Essential component: useful to maintain order and repeatability in maneuvers, with a dedicated fixing point.

Usage and installation notes

For correct installation, it is important to always check the supporting structure and the proper preparation of the surface. In particular:

• Hole check: check that the drilling of the deck (or mounting base) is consistent with 70 mm spacing and Ø 8 mm, or prepare the holes appropriately.
• Bearing surface: ensure that the area is suitable for mounting a mooring accessory and allows proper tightening.
• Alignment: position the cleat so that the lines run with a clean path, avoiding rubbing on edges or interference with other accessories.
• Routine maintenance: in a marine environment, it is good practice to perform periodic checks of tightness and general condition of the accessory.

Note: before purchase or replacement, always compare measurements and drilling with the existing installation and onboard needs. If you are doing a refit, it can be useful to measure the available space and verify that the chosen position does not interfere with handrails, fairleads, or other deck equipment.
