Boat owners, these Marine Part Depot Stainless Steel Cleats are exactly what you need for secure docking and anchoring. Each cleat measures 6 inches long and features this beautiful highly polished finish that not only looks great but provides outstanding corrosion resistance - super important when you're dealing with saltwater environments. The open base design is one of the most popular styles you'll find on boats because it's both functional and stylish. Installation is straightforward - they're designed to mount with four #5 (M5) screws (which you'll need to get separately), with hole centers spaced 2-1/4 inches apart lengthwise and 1-1/8 inches widthwise. The distance from the bottom of the bar to the mounting surface is 7/8 inch, giving you plenty of clearance for tying off lines. What I really appreciate is that you get two cleats in the package, which is perfect for setting up both sides of your boat. The heavy-duty construction means these aren't flimsy - they can handle the tension from docking lines without bending or breaking. The sleek, modern design actually makes your deck look better while providing reliable performance season after season. Whether you're replacing old worn-out cleats or upgrading your boat's hardware, these stainless steel cleats offer that perfect combination of durability, functionality, and good looks that every boater wants. They're one of those upgrades that just make your time on the water more enjoyable and stress-free.
