Complementary Hardware > Trigger Cleat
The Nash Trigger Cleat features a unique mechanism that releases sheets under very high loads. Pulling the sheet against the trigger trips the pawls and frees the sheet regardless of load.
In light air or once the trigger has relieved the load the cleat operates like a normal cam cleat. The trigger cleat is not ball bearing, but is of rugged stainless steel construction and is very reliable in heavy air.
Trigger cleats are ideal on highly loaded systems like mainsheets, vangs, and even for some halyards. They have developed a cult-like following in some classes where the crew loves the ability to spill the mainsail reliably during close quarters maneuvering.
The 355 cam mounting bracket attaches the trigger cleat to 3.00" low profile triples. It fits the 052, 064, 152 and 411.
