V-Cleats are a simple solution to cleating lines under moderate loads. V-Cleats are lightweight, corrosion-proof, and offer great abrasion resistance. The sleek, low profile of the V-cleat is unobtrusive on the deck and will not catch lines or clothing. The base profile permits mounting on flat or curved surfaces. The cut-away in the base of the fairlead cleats can be used as a becket for a simple 2:1 purchase system.
