Whitecap 8 in Heavy-Duty 316 Stainless Hollow Base Cleat

The Whitecap 8 in hollow-base cleat provides a substantial tie-off point for dock and mooring lines. Its heavy-duty design uses 316 stainless steel, a sensible material for exposed marine deck fittings. The hollow-base profile distinguishes it from a solid cast cleat without changing its familiar two-horn layout.

At 8 in long, this model stands 2-1/4 in high. Mounting calls for four 1/4 in fasteners, so the backing structure and hole positions need to be planned before installation. The stated dimensions help match the cleat to the available deck space and line-handling needs. Whitecap lists the 8 in fitting at 23.5 oz.

Choose this cleat when replacing a fitting with similar dimensions or fitting out a new mooring position. Check the deck reinforcement and mounting hardware for the loads the fitting will see. The cleat's exposed stainless surface can be cleaned along with other deck hardware. See more mounting and rigging hardware for related parts.
