Lightweight and low-profile, it fits 1–6 mm lines and mounts with two M5 fastenings (fasteners not included); fit with stainless steel screws and a marine sealant for longevity in the Irish Sea. Ideal for sailors looking for durable, marine-rated deck equipment for racing or coastal cruising around Ireland.
