Description

FEATURES

  • Ball bearings support the cleat arm. An integral stop prevents over rotation, but can be removed to allow full 360° rotation.
  • The cleating angle can be set in one of two positions - use the included riser kit for a higher cleating angle.
  • A switchable ratchet in the base allows the cleat arm to remain in its most recently used position. The ratchet can be turned off for free swivelling.
  • Includes small C-Cleat cam cleat and fairlead, suitable for line sizes 2-8mm (3/31 - 5/15") dia.
