TERSMA Eye Cleat with Base | High-Performance Mooring Cleats

Product Description

Experience unparalleled control and responsiveness on the water with the TERSMA Eye Cleat with Base. Engineered for the demanding marine environment, this advanced boat fitting is an essential upgrade for any sailor looking to optimize their rigging and line management. As a premier choice in high-performance mooring cleats, it combines innovative design with robust construction to deliver reliability when you need it most, ensuring your lines are secure yet instantly adjustable.

The TERSMA cleat is designed around a state-of-the-art composite cam cleat system. The heart of its performance lies in the self-lubricating ball bearing system. This technology works in tandem with specially designed non-abrasive jaws to dramatically reduce friction. For the sailor, this translates to effortless, instantaneous engagement and release of lines, even under high load. You can trim and adjust sails with precision and speed, gaining a critical competitive edge or simply enjoying a smoother, more controlled sailing experience. Say goodbye to struggling with sticky or jammed cleats.

Constructed from a lightweight yet exceptionally strong, wear-resistant European composite, this cleat won’t weigh you down. The glass-fiber reinforcement provides incredible strength, while the UV-stabilized properties ensure it stands up to the harsh sun, preventing degradation and maintaining its integrity and color season after season. The foundation of this assembly is a robust swivel base plate crafted from marine-grade 316 stainless steel, offering superior corrosion resistance and unyielding strength against the elements.

Every component is meticulously chosen for performance. The assembly features a full 360-degree swivel action thanks to its stainless steel base plate, allowing for fair lead angles from any direction. The cam cleat base and angle fairlead are formed from a high-strength, fiber-reinforced material for optimal durability and low friction. The internal mechanism is just as impressive, with self-lubricating acetal composite ball bearings ensuring smooth action, and pawls made from the same tough, fiber-reinforced plastic. Even the internal spring is made from Grade 316 stainless steel, guaranteeing a crisp and reliable cleat action for years to come.

Ideal Applications
