Attwood Marine 66517-7 Neat Cleat 6" Retractable Stainless Steel Cleat

The Attwood Marine Neat Cleat is a space-saving retractable cleat designed for boats where deck space is at a premium. This innovative cleat features a spring-loaded stay-up design that allows it to fold flat when not in use, creating a smooth, snag-free deck surface.

Key Features:

• 6-inch retractable cleat with low-profile design
• Constructed from marine-grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• Each stanchion is a 7/8" diameter stainless steel rod for exceptional strength
• Spring-loaded mechanism keeps cleat upright when deployed
• Includes drainage receptacles to capture moisture and prevent water buildup
• Drainage system routes water to bilge via pitot tubing (tubing sold separately)
• Easy installation with thin profile that fits tight spaces

The Neat Cleat is ideal for applications where you need reliable line securing capability without permanent deck obstructions. When raised, it provides a secure tie-off point for docking and mooring lines. When lowered, it sits nearly flush with the deck to prevent tripping hazards and line snags.
