Sailboat clamcleat CL828-70

with guidealuminum

The Clamcleat® CL828-70 alloy Micros Aero cleat has a becket for rigging with a 4:1 ratio. This version of the smallest Aero cleat is strong, compact and wear resistant. The CL828 Aero base is fitted with the CL270 aluminium Micros cleat. The becket under the cleat allows rigging with a 4:1 advantage, as shown in the sketch above. It is simple to rig and adjust. The position of the cleat on the rope can be adjusted by hand - no tools required. Ideal for tents, sports netting, canvas structures, sun sails, tie-downs, radio masts and aerials. This cleat can be used also for fitness equipment to adjust the step height. The CL828-70 is race legal for tensioning the forestay on the Mirror dinghy. Rig as shown in the photo and use a CL262 to increase your pulling power and get the forestay really tight. Versions are also available without the becket and with a side-entry fairlead - see below.
