Product Details

The C. Sherman Johnson 40-518 Shroud Cleat is a marine-grade rigging attachment designed for sailboats and other vessels requiring a secure, low-profile mounting point on standing rigging. This specialized cleat attaches directly to wire or rod rigging to provide a convenient attachment point for halyards and signal equipment.

Key Features:

  • All stainless steel construction for maximum corrosion resistance in marine environments
  • Universal fit accommodates wire or rod rigging from 5/32" through 3/8" diameter
  • Integrated eye for attaching snap shackles or other hardware
  • Low-profile design projects only 1/2" from the shroud to minimize wind resistance and snag hazards
  • Ideal for flag halyards, radar reflector lines, steaming shape halyards, and other signal equipment
  • Compatible with standard stainless steel rigging systems

This shroud cleat provides a practical solution for sailors who need to mount flags, radar reflectors, day shapes, or other equipment on their standing rigging without permanent modifications. The stainless steel construction ensures long-lasting performance even in saltwater conditions, while the low-profile design maintains clean rigging lines and reduces windage.
