The Sailor's preferred choice for adjusting dinghy trapeze lines. Also used for vangs & kicking straps; outhauls and small dinghy forestays. The Clamcleat® CL253 offers a light weight and compact solution for rope adjustment where a quick, positive lock, that is easy to release, is required.  For windsurfing, the CL253 can be used as part of a adjustable downhaul system. The cleat has an in-built pulley.
If you are using this cleat to support your weight, it should be regularly inspected. Wearing or scuffing of the surface finish is acceptable.  If there is any sign of wear or damage to the working or load-bearing parts, the cleat should be replaced.
Manufactured from aluminium for light weight and durable performance, CL253 has a silver stove enamel finish for a cost effective, high quality coating.  
 
Ideal for dinghy trapeze adjustment, vangs & windsurf harnesses.
