Gear: Large Pull-Up Cleats
The aesthetics of large yachts and sportfish boats often come from clean sweeping lines. An uncluttered deck with hidden hardware adds to this effect. Engineered for just this purpose, 12″ and 15″ pull-up cleats from Accon Marine provide necessary mooring points for heavy vessels yet retract flush into the deck to maintain a modern and stylish appearance.
Accon Pull-Up Cleats are made from polished marine-grade 316 stainless steel for exceptional strength, durability and corrosion resistance. The 12″ model 205-12 handles line sizes up to 3/4″ and loads of up to 14,000 lbs. The larger 15″ version 115-15 can take lines up to 1″ and loads to 20,000 lbs. It’s the largest flush-mounted cleat available in the market.
When needed, finger and thumb indents allow the horns to be pulled up from the base. A precision-machined grip ensures smooth and effortless operation. When no longer required, they’re pushed back flush with the deck.
Installation is straightforward. The 12″ model thru-bolts using four 5/16″ screws. The 15″ version is offered in 4″ stud-mount and thru-bolt configurations. All styles include a waterproofing cup and a backing plate that serves as a mounting template. MSRP for the 12″ model is US$429.45; the 15″ versions are US$932.84 stud-mount and US$930.26 for thru-bolt.
