Here's a comparison of their product features by material:

1. Composite Wedge Cleats and Accessories.

Nautos composite products are preferred for applications requiring an excellent weight/performance ratio.
- Products Concerned: small and medium-sized cam-operated wedge cleats (e.g. models with 2 or 3 rows of ball bearings), various guiding accessories.

- Benefits of Composite:

o Lightness: Composite offers significantly less weight than aluminum, essential for dinghies and small units where every gram counts, or to reduce inertia in fast maneuvers.

o Low Rope Wear: Composite jaws are often optimized for secure wedging while being less aggressive to rope sheathing than metal.

o Strength and Durability: Nautos thermoset composites are designed to have hardness and strength comparable to aluminum, with excellent resistance to wear, marine corrosion (no rust) and UV.

o Insulation: They do not conduct electricity or heat like metal.

2. Wedge Cleats and Accessories in Aluminum (Anodized)

Anodized aluminum is chosen for applications requiring very high load resistance.

- Products Concerned: Wedge cleats for larger rope diameters, fixed mast or deck cleats, mainsail towers, rails and carts, and versions of wedge cleats designed for heavier loads.

- Advantages of Aluminum:

o Maximum Strength: Aluminum offers a higher working and breaking load, making it indispensable for maneuvers under high tension (halyards, mainsheet on larger sailboats).

o Rigidity: It ensures a highly rigid mounting base and structure, necessary to maintain the precision and integrity of bearing systems under high stress.

o Hard Anodized Finish: Anodizing provides excellent protection against corrosion and abrasion in the marine environment, while offering a professional appearance.

o Pulley Components: In some of Nautos' high-performance products (such as Organic pulleys), aluminum can be combined with composite cheeks to combine the strength of metal bushes with the lightness of the outer structure.
