Troubleshooting

Cleat does not hold cable securely.

Verify that the cable diameter is within the 7.7 mm to 10 mm range. Ensure the cleat is correctly fastened to the mounting surface and not overtightened, which could deform it.

Difficulty installing the cleat.

Ensure you are using the correct type and size of fixings for your mounting surface. Check that the cleat is aligned properly before securing.

Cleat appears degraded after prolonged outdoor use.

While designed for UV resistance, extreme long-term exposure in highly aggressive environments may eventually cause wear. Inspect regularly and replace if significant degradation is observed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the cable diameter falls within the cleat's specified range (7.7 mm to 10 mm).
  2. Select appropriate fixings (e.g., screws, bolts) suitable for the mounting surface and environmental conditions.
  3. Position the cleat to provide firm support for the cable.
  4. Securely fasten the cleat to the mounting surface using the chosen fixings.
  5. Place the cable within the cleat and ensure it is held snugly but without constriction.

Compatibility:

  • Cable Diameter: Compatible with cables measuring 7.7 mm to 10 mm in diameter.
  • Mounting Surface: Suitable for a variety of solid surfaces, provided appropriate fixings are used.

Care:

  • Clean the cleats with a dry or slightly damp cloth as needed. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Regularly inspect cleats for any signs of damage or wear, especially in extreme environments.
