Our tips for choosing

Security

Check the maximum workload to ensure it is appropriate for the intended use. Precise triggering, even under extreme load, is vital to prevent capsizing or equipment damage.

Solidity

Aluminum cams with stainless steel or forged carbon inserts are preferable for biting thin and hard strings. If you need to attach the cleat to the hull, use bolts and nuts with washers rather than screws, which can pull out. For added security, inject epoxy resin with a microballoon charge into the drilled hole before attaching it.

Precision

Adding wire guides optimizes the entry angle of the end for instant locking or unlocking.

Rope diameter

Check the specifications for the maximum permissible rope diameter.

The location

Depending on the use or location, it may be preferable to use clamcleat-type cams, which offer many models adapted to all uses, or high-end ascenders like spinlock.
