Carbon sailboat cam cleat RWO
The combined advances in rope, materials and computer technology has called on all the resources of RWO engineers to meet the challenge and produce the most efficient cleat in the world. Unique teeth progression which has been scientifically tested to offer similar amounts of holding power on small or large rope diameters (Just try and use a smaller line for same application and hold it in your hand to get some idea of the grip required.) On older cam's just one or two teeth attempt to retain the rope which was OK for more forgiving old fashion softer rope, but now with the harder core Hi-tech rope higher loading under tension are resisting deformation. More teeth contact but at less depth means a kinder cleat to rope wear, easier entry and exit. The contoured cam shell is unlike other designs, it is not a compromise, the carbon fibre teeth form direct wedge to the pillar and transfer the load to the fastenings. The rest of the body is sculptured around this and whilst providing a distinct contrasting also forms part of a lubricated fluted bearing. Thus our engineers, together with computer and plastic experts have maximised the use of modern technics resulting in a world beating design.
