This simple, unique device was the first major innovation in rope cleats for over 40 years. Following exhaustive development work on numerous prototypes and extensive material trials, the first nylon cleat was produced in 1964. In 1965 Clamcleats Limited was formed, initial patents were filed and the trade mark Clamcleat was registered. An early distinguished customer was Sir Francis Chichester. His vessel, Gipsy Moth IV, was fitted with ten CL201 cleats, which helped him to set the first speed record for single handed circumnavigation in 1966-67.
The first Clamcleat rope cleat was manufactured from engineering plastic. Aluminium cleats were introduced in 1972 to cope with the higher performance required for racing and the Clamcleat Racing range was born. Many designs are now available in both materials. The range has expanded to over 125 models, for use in mid-air, fixing on a deck or to sailcloth. Innovative accessories are available; such as the Keepers, which were a category winner in the 2005 DAME Design Awards. Early in 2003 a trade injection moulding division was added. In 2009 Sevarg photo and ID cutters were acquired. In 2012 we started a new factory in Costa Rica: IMATS is dedicated to the injection moulding of engineering plastics.
The family-run company is now in its third generation. With sound engineering and efficient administration, we are dedicated to offering quality and personal service. Right from the beginning, it has been company policy to offer excellent service to all our customers. Good stocks are held so orders can be supplied quickly, via distributors around the globe.
Clamcleat rope cleats have always been produced at our factory in England, from design and toolmaking, through casting and moulding to finishing and packaging. This guarantees that all stages of production can be closely controlled to ensure high quality cleats.
