ABSTRACT:
An adjustable load automatic releasing cleat for automatically releasing a rope or line at a predetermined tension load range. A rolling member (26) positioned adjacent to a cam member (30), releases the rope above the set tension range and recleats the rope below the load setting. The amount of load on the line activates the release and cleating mechanisms which are manually overridable.
