Professional Grade Mooring Hardware
Engineered for extreme marine environments, these AISI 316 Stainless Steel Open Base Cleats offer the ultimate combination of aesthetic luxury and structural integrity. The high-gloss mirror polish is achieved through multi-stage mechanical buffing, ensuring a surface that resists pitting and crevice corrosion in saltwater applications.
Technical Engineering Excellence
- Material: Marine-grade AISI 316 Stainless Steel for superior tensile strength.
- Surface Finish: Precision electropolished mirror finish for maximum UV reflectivity and salt spray resistance.
- Design: Smooth-radius architecture eliminates sharp edges, significantly extending the service life of docking lines by preventing abrasion.
- Mounting: Robust four-hole open base configuration with countersunk apertures for a flush, professional installation.
Whether upgrading a luxury yacht or equipping a rugged fishing vessel, these cleats provide the reliable mooring security required for diverse maritime conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this cleat rust in saltwater environments?
- No. This cleat is forged from AISI 316 stainless steel, which contains molybdenum to resist chloride-induced pitting. The high-gloss mirror finish further prevents salt accumulation compared to rougher finishes.
- Does the open base design increase the risk of rope fraying?
- On the contrary, our visual forensic analysis shows precision-rounded radii on all contact surfaces. These burr-free edges ensure that braided or 3-strand nylon docking lines glide smoothly without snagging or thermal friction damage.
- How many mounting points are required for installation?
- The cleat features a heavy-duty 4-hole base configuration with countersunk apertures. This ensures maximum load distribution across the gunwale or deck, providing superior mooring security compared to 2-hole models.

Our Roots
Hong Kong Based, 8 Years of Expertise
The story of AirowMarine began eight years ago. Headquartered in Hong Kong, we have been dedicated to the global operation and brand building of marine accessories. These eight years of experience have taught us that on the unpredictable sea, every single component carries the trust and safety of the boat owner.
Supply Chain
Invested Factories in Mainland China
To ensure our products withstand extreme environments, we are more than just a bridge for trade. AirowMarine has invested in its own manufacturing facilities in Mainland China. Leveraging the region's mature and efficient industrial supply chain, we are deeply involved in the entire process—from raw material selection and precision machining to final assembly. We avoid exaggerated claims; instead, through professional logistics and rigorous quality control, we ensure every product delivered to you meets high nautical-grade standards.
