316 Stainless Steel Pop-Up (Pull-Up) Boat Cleat with a Bottom Backing Plate. This specific variant illustrates how the hardware looks when fully recessed and ready for under-deck installation.
Key Features & Design Mechanics
Completely Flush Profile: When pushed down into its base housing, the top horn sits completely flush with the surrounding oval bezel. This creates a smooth surface that eliminates tripping hazards and prevents stray lines from snagging.
Recessed Guide Cylinders: The two thick vertical tubes house the sliding legs of the cleat. These cylinders protect the moving mechanics under the deck and guide the vertical movement smoothly.
Included Support Backing Plate: The rectangular flat plate included at the bottom sits directly beneath the fiberglass deck or gunwale. It distributes the immense pulling forces of mooring lines across a wider surface area to prevent the fiberglass from cracking.
Under-Deck Fastening Studs: The two threaded side rods drop straight through the backing plate. They are tightened from below using locknuts and washers, ensuring that no screw heads or fasteners are visible on the clean upper deck.

What size cleat (e.g., 6-inch or 8-inch) do you need to accommodate your dock line diameter?
Do you need a drill template or cutout dimensions to prep your deck fiberglass?
Are you looking to install drain tubes or hose barbs onto the bottom of the cylinders to redirect water out of the bilge?
