Marine Grade 316 Flip-Up Cleats for Boats, Docks and Kayaks
Description du produit
These marine grade 316 stainless steel folding boat cleats are designed for secure mooring in places where deck space is limited and a low-profile fitting is preferred. Suitable for boats, docks, kayaks, pontoons, and other marine installations, they provide a practical tie-down point while helping keep the deck surface cleaner and less obstructed.
Fabriqué à partir de Acier inoxydable 316 avec un mirror-polished finish, these cleats offer excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion, rust, and pitting, making them suitable for long-term outdoor and marine use. The polished surface also gives the hardware a clean, professional appearance that matches modern marine fittings and deck hardware.
Le flip-up / fold-down design allows the cleat to sit flush when not in use, helping reduce tripping risk in narrow or limited deck areas. Available in 5 inch and 6 inch sizes, these cleats are supplied with matching fasteners for surface-mount installation and can be selected according to boat size and mooring needs.
