Clamcleat-CL827-03
The Clamcleat® CL827-03 is an all nylon version of the largest Aero cleat. Lightweight. Easy to fit, rig and adjust by hand. The CL827 Aero base is fitted with the CL203 nylon Junior cleat. Lightweight and compact. A lower cost cleat than the alloy CL827-11, the CL827-03 is ideal for lower loads and where temperatures are above freezing. This cleat has the same dimensions as the CL827-11, so you can use that installation drawing (see Downloads tab).
Use for sports netting, canvas structures and tie-downs. The position of the cleat on the rope can be adjusted by hand. No tools required.
The CL827-11 is the alloy version of this cleat - use for higher loads.
A more compact Aero cleat for 3-6mm ropes is CL826-72.
For smaller 3-4mm ropes, look at CL828-63.
The CL827-17 has a hook-in fairlead for quick de-rigging.
If you just need the cleat, see CL203.

Q: What size of rope should I use on my CL827-03 cleat?
Ans: The size of rope used on the CL827-03 is from 4 to 6mm.
Q: What is an Aero cleat?
Ans: The Aero cleat allows the cleat to be positioned and adjusted along the rope easily and will accept a variety of cleats.
Q: What size of Aero cleats are available?
Ans: The CL828 range of Aero cleats use 3-4mm rope and the CL826, CL827 and CL828 range use 4-6mm rope.
Q: Why does Clamcleat® not publish safe working loads (SWL) or break loads for its cleats?
Ans: The quality, type and style of the rope or cord plays a major role in the performance of the cleat. Normally the better the quality of the rope the greater holding power, also some cleats are designed to slip once they exceed the desired holding load as a safety feature including securing fabrics such as sunshades or covers.
Q: Do you get a better performance with an Aluminum cleat?
Ans: Aluminum cleats do not improve the performance of the cleat, but they can achieve higher holding loads and they also might improve the lifespan of the cleat especially if the rope will be in contact with the teeth whilst the rope is being pulled through during adjustment.
Q: What different coating are there for the Aluminum cleats?
Ans: The standard coating for the cleat is a Stoving Aluminum silver enamel coating. For extra protection from corrosion and a high-tech appearance the cleats are also available in a dark grey Hard anodized finish. The part no in suffixed with “AN” to identify the hard anodized finish.
Q: How long should an Aluminum cleat last?
Ans: This really depends on the usage, the quality and age of the rope used etc. so is very difficult to gauge. The ultraviolet rays will discolor the cleats over time and in very sunny climates may affect the life of the cleat. In extreme climates the life expectancy should be 10 -15 years depending on usage and in more moderate climate 20 + years.
Q: What type of rope or cord will give the best performance on my cleats?
Ans: In our experience a braided good quality rope gives you the best holding performance.
Q: Is there any maintenance required to a cleat to keep it performing well?
Ans: We would recommend flushing the with fresh water as often are you can.
