Harken 12mm Bolt-Down Fairlead - Single

The Harken 12mm Bolt-Down Fairlead is a purpose-built rigging component designed for anglers and boaters who demand reliable line management in demanding marine environments. This single fairlead serves as a critical junction point where your rope, cable, or line transitions through the gunwale or deck, reducing friction and controlling load angles during winch operations, anchor deployment, or heavy-duty retrieval tasks.

Built by Harken—a name trusted across competitive sailing, commercial fishing, and professional marine industries—the 12mm bolt-down fairlead features a compact footprint and ultralight construction, making it ideal for retrofit applications without adding significant weight to your vessel. The bolt-down mounting system provides permanent, load-rated installation through your deck or hull structure, distributing forces across a solid fastening pattern rather than relying on surface adhesion.

The 12mm diameter channel is sized for standard marine rope and cable commonly found in recreational and professional rigging systems, while the fairlead's geometry minimizes line chafe and ensures smooth movement under load. This fairlead is essential for anyone upgrading their boat's rigging system or replacing worn components, ensuring that anglers and boaters maintain precision control during docking maneuvers.
