Tired of banging on the mainsheet to uncleat, or watching the cleat let go at just the wrong moment? Harken® ball bearing cam cleats hold lines securely and release instantly for easy, precise trimming. With a downward flick of the wrist, the sheet snaps into the cam-and stays exactly where you want it. Pull up and the cleat immediately releases-even under the highest loads. Smooth teeth grip line of all sizes including the small diameter hard line preferred by racers.
Easy-Open Ball Bearing Cams
Multiple rows of high-load ball bearings reduce friction so cams open easily for snap-down, rather than draw-through cleating.
The cam horns and smooth V-shape guide line for easy entry. This allows precise sail control without having to readjust the cleated line.
The Teflon® surface of the aluminum Cam-Matic® improves the cleat's fast line engagement. The Cam-Matic® is the only cleat that will engage under maximum line tension.
Protective Tooth Design
Rounded teeth hold securely by squeezing rather than cutting into line to reduce wear.
High-Wear or Lightweight Models
Aluminum Cam-Matics® are Hardkote-anodized for high-load, high-wear, continuous adjustment applications. Available in Micro, standard and Offshore sizes. Lightweight fiber-reinforced Carbo-Cams® for racing where weight is critical, or where adjustments are less frequent. Available in Micro and standard sizes.
Long Lasting Protection
Ball bearings and Carbo-Cams® UV-stabilized with carbon-black additive for maximum protection.
