Clamcleat-CL215
With the Clamcleat® CL215 the rope drops down into the teeth to give a quick and positive lock that is easy to release. The cleat is maufactured from UV resistant nylon, making it cost effective and ideal for holding rope in outdoor and mrine environments.
The side fixing gives a short length, ideal for fixing on a narrow surface.
The CL215 is used to hold anchor lines on small fishing rafts. The white CL215 holds ropes in window frames.
CL280 is a larger version, with side fixing holes, for 6-12mm ropes.
CL209 also holds 4-8mm ropes, but with in-line fixing holes.
For smaller ropes (3-6mm), look at CL204.

Q: What size of rope can you use on the CL215?
Ans: The CL215 will accept ropes from 4-8mm.
Q: What is an open cleat?
Ans: An open cleat allows you to completely remove the rope from the cleat.
Q: What fixing do I need to secure the Clamcleat® CL215 Cleat?
Ans: The fixing for a CL215 cleat is M5 CSK or 6mm no 10 woodscrews.
Q: What are the hole centers for securing the Clamcleat® CL215 Cleat?
Ans: The hole centers for the CL215 cleat are 27mm 1 1/8”.
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: How long should a Nylon 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: Can I fit my cleats using pop rivets?
Ans: Using pop rivets to fit your cleat is a tidy quick way of securing the cleat. Ensure the pop rivet is at 90 degrees to the cleat when fixing and with certain smaller cleats the head of the pop rivet gun will not sit onto the pop rivet when in place so you will require to add a spacer between the gun and the rivet.
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: What is the largest cleat Clamcleat make?
Ans: The CL220 is the largest cleat in the Clamcleat® range and is designed for a rope from 12-16mm 3/8 to 5/8”.
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.
