Allen Cam Cleats

Available in either Alloy or Allenite* the jaw profile of Allen Cam Cleats optimises rope entry and exit for smooth cleating and un-cleating.

Double coil springs and ball bearing technology give consistently smooth cam action. The addition of the Mega-Pro Lead with optional wire reinforcement enhances cleating angles for superior performance and longevity.

Allen Cam Cleats benefit from over 60 years of meticulous research and development. The Allen Brothers, Tony and Glenn, were the inventors of the original aluminium cam cleat. 

Check out the fantastic article by Allen on the History of the Cam Cleat and how to choose the correct style. 

 *Allenite is a proprietary material developed by Allen specifically for high wear resistance, low weight and good heat dissipation. Ideal for lighter loaded and for less frequently used applications and where weight saving is a premium over the alloy range.
