Satisfied. According to expected

Finally the flaglines have their own place. Good product. But the counter plate to the screw would have to be kept much better, which would be possible, for example, if this were designed as a tee. I was able to mount the clamp only after several times slipping out of the counter plate (luckily it did not go overboard).

One thing that could be improved is the fastening screws, that sometimes loosen with time. There could be a locking nuts type of female side, or you will need to put locktite on the screw. Otherwise an excellent product.

To assemble nasty. To protect the wire, a metal plate is inserted between the screw and the shim, which tends to volatilize during assembly. Then you have to improvise ...

The iron plate inside is difficult to assemble together

limit
Unfortunately difficult to assemble, maybe with 8-gauge shrouds?
Otherwise quite bulky, even though it is screwed into the plastic. Would have been rather unsuitable for us.

Well... okay for the cheap price...
Fast and good delivery, as usual from SVB.
I use the product to attach my flag lines to the upper shroud.
A screw is used to press a (very) small metal strip on the back of the plastic cleat against the steel cable and is supposed to clamp it in place. When I screwed it on for the first time, the metal strip was bent so much after a few turns of the screw that it fell out (luckily it landed on deck and not in the water ;-)). I then straightened the metal strip using pliers and reinserted it. This time I only tightened the screw very slightly. The whole thing doesn't feel particularly stable, but at least it's been holding for a few weeks and has already withstood some strong winds on the North Sea. I might glue the screw and metal strip together again with epoxy in winter storage...

The grip system is not convincing
It comes with a metal plate that fits irregularly to another and is the one that presses with the screw. I personally did not like the system

can't cope
I can't quite get the guitar (actually not at all) to my 4mm Want. The clamping plate keeps falling out and I can't get it fixed either... Maybe I'm too stupid... Too bad

cleat for the flag line
Cleat for the flag line, actually the price is probably normal. Unfortunately, the cleat slips or the retaining plate is pushed out. By converting with threaded screw and washer then usable

tempting, but...
indeed, this product seduces by its value for money, but during assembly it shows all its weaknesses too many parts (3 without the screws) difficult to place and assemble, you need a third hand!

Fragile and inefficient clamping mechanism
Jerry F.
by Jerry F. Flag of United Kingdom 8/3/2017
Over priced by 50%
These are useful pieces of kit. They do what is says on the box.
But at nearly 9 euros each, they are over priced.
8.95 euros a pair would be a better price.

Fixation mechanism could be better. Tested one cleat, does not fix perfectly...
