Made of corrosion-resistant, polished, investment cast 316 stainless, this strong, adjustable cleat can also be used as a chock.

Comments about Mid Rail Cleats:
This cleat works exactly as I expected it to. We're using it on the toe rail track for the spring lines. It's easy to move out of the way to sail and slide back in place to dock. I will buy again.
