Brown fibrous cleats
Tufnol
it is getting rarer to find.....apparently it is rather a nasty thing to make and lots of factories are having to be closed down due to problems with Health and Safety.
Marlin and Gibb are still making cleats from it.
A good plastics supplier should be able to source some, but you might need to buy a complete sheet or large block.
There is a guy who goes around the Boat Jumbles who normally has smaller bits for sale.
cheers
