Sea-Dog Line Rail Mount Cleat, Stainless Steel, Boat, 4-1/2in, Black

I bought two of these cleats to complete my bird feeder pulley system, and they were exactly what I needed. I attached them to the main vertical pole, and I don’t have the problems with them slipping that other users did, as the tension on them is vertical, not horizontal. They were a bit pricey for this application, but in the end totally worthwhile in making my life easier.

Works great just what we needed

I ordered 2 of these Sea-Dogs and one arrived as a repaired torn-open package with loose nuts stuck to the scotch tape right on the package edge, of being lost. I proceeded fearfully, looking at Amazon's on-line picture to assemble (not even a finished picture on the package) and was successful, even without directions. This = 4, not a 5. Finished attaching and it works great for my needs.

Was just what I wanted to tye flag lines to Stanton

Great addition to boat rails for quick tie off without needing to drill any permanent holes in the boat. Took less that 1 min to install. Very pleased with this product.

We use this for holding flag halyards. Works great.

Perfect fit and function. Reasonably priced.

This cleat, designed to serve on a rail or stanchion, does not mount firmly enough to really hold a line. No matter how tight the screws are tightened, and despite a rubber friction pad that accompanies the cleat, the cleat will rotate on the rail on the rail as soon as the line comes under strain.
