Seachoice Cleats

Seachoice Cleats: Dependable Holding Power on the Water

When it comes to securing your vessel at the dock or mooring a line to the deck, the cleat is one of the most fundamental — and most trusted — pieces of hardware aboard any boat. Seachoice has built its reputation across the marine industry by delivering straightforward, well-engineered solutions, and their lineup of cleats is a clear expression of that philosophy: practical designs, proven materials, and a range wide enough to suit everything from weekend runabouts to hardworking commercial vessels.

A Range of Cleat Styles for Every Application

Seachoice's cleat catalog covers the most common styles boaters rely on, each optimized for specific mounting environments and use cases:

• Open Base Dock Cleats – Available in galvanized gray iron with a hot-dipped finish, these heavy-duty cleats are purpose-built for docks, seawalls, and work boats where rugged, long-term performance matters most. Sizes range from 6 inches up to 15 inches to accommodate a variety of vessel sizes and line diameters.
• Cast Aluminum "S" Dock Cleats – Seachoice's signature "S"-shaped design features oversized horns that are easy to loop and engineered to accept oversized lines. Made from corrosion-resistant aluminum, these cleats include recessed mounting holes to eliminate line snag and fray without compromising structural integrity.
• Hollow Base Yacht Cleats – Available in chrome-plated zinc for a polished, classic look, these cleats suit onboard deck applications where appearance and corrosion resistance both matter.
• Black Nylon Cleats – A lightweight, rust-proof option available in multiple sizes, ideal for lighter-duty boat or dock installations where a low-profile finish is preferred.

What Sets Seachoice Cleats Apart

Each material choice in Seachoice's cleat lineup is deliberate. The galvanized iron open base cleats feature a hot-dipped finish that provides excellent corrosion resistance, making them ideal for the relentless moisture and salt exposure found on seawalls and working docks. The cast aluminum "S" dock cleats are built from corrosion-resistant aluminum and include recessed mounting holes — a thoughtful detail that keeps dock lines running cleanly without snagging or fraying over time.

Seachoice started in the marine industry as a supplier of high-quality OEM replacement parts, and that heritage of reliability carries through to their cleat designs. The company now offers over 1,600 products across 18 marine categories, and their cleats remain a staple among boaters who need proven hardware at a sensible price point. Whether you're outfitting a private slip, a commercial seawall, or the deck of a center console, Seachoice has a cleat style and size engineered to hold.
