Ronstan RF7 Swivelling Cam Cleat Base with Ball Bearings

The Ronstan RF7 is a ball bearing swivelling cam cleat base designed for mainsheet systems on dinghies and sportboats up to 26 feet. This innovative cleating system features a twin ball bearing race that allows the cleat to swivel smoothly, enabling easy cleating and releasing from any angle on the boat.

Key Features:

• Height adjustable arm allows optimization of the cleating angle for various applications
• Twin rows of ball bearings support the cleat arm and minimize friction during operation
• Adjustable ratchet system prevents the arm from falling to leeward
• Rotation limited to 260° with molded stops; stops can be removed for full 360° rotation
• Fork fittings include 5mm pin for direct attachment to block head posts without shackles
• Compatible with traditional post/shackle head blocks and Dyneema Link head Orbit Blocks

Construction:

• Alloy cleating arms for strength and light weight
• Fiber reinforced nylon base for durability
• Grade 316 stainless steel fittings for corrosion resistance in marine environments

This swivel cleat base is ideal for sailors who need reliable, easy-to-operate cleating systems that perform consistently regardless of sheet angle or boat position.
