Overview

• The marine mooring system refers to the use of equipment to fix the ship at the wharf or other places to limit its movement. So, how to select the best marine mooring equipment?

  Choosing The Mooring Bollard

  1. For the selection of mooring bollards, attention shall be paid to the requirements of the specification and size. Because of the different specifications and sizes of the ships, there are certain restrictions on the device.

  2. Attention shall be paid to the restrictions on the installation position to avoid problems in the installation.

  3. Attention shall be paid to the installation requirements, especially the power restrictions, to ensure that the installation of the device meets the stability requirements and ensures the effect.

  4. It is necessary to pay attention to the functional requirements and functional limitations, especially the functional requirements of the cable and the limit of the bearing capacity, to ensure the stability of the device in use.

  

  Choosing The Marine Mooring Chock

  1. Corresponding types: Different types of products have different structural shapes. We need to choose the corresponding type chock to be able to use normally because of the appropriate structural shape.

  2. Corresponding models: There are different models of the same type of mooring chocks, and there are certain differences in decoupling strands and materials between different models of it. Based on this situation, we need to select the corresponding model of products to be applicable.

  3. High precision: Because the application has high requirements on the structure and quality of the mooring chock, it needs products with high precision, which will have better applicability because of the excellent comprehensive quality.

  Choosing The Roller Fairlead

  1. When selecting, it is necessary to see whether the surface of the device in contact with the cable is smooth. To avoid large abrasion of the cable during use, which may lead to the cable being easily broken and unable to be used for a long time.

  2. Observe the steel parts except for the body and pin shaft. Generally speaking, there is no problem with the fairlead roller in the body and pin shaft structure. Therefore, it is suggested that when selecting the device, we should focus on other steel parts, especially paying attention to whether the steel parts other than the body and pin shaft have been galvanized or painted.

  Selecting Marine Anchor

  1. Bruce claw anchor is one of the most popular anchors among leisure rowers in North America. For most rowers, Bruce or delta is the best balance between price and performance.

  

  2. Plow anchors are suitable for most bow rollers. Fluke anchors are the perfect choice for auxiliary anchors or stern anchors. They perform well in sediment and can be easily stored on most bow rollers.

  3. The head anchor of commercial ships mainly adopts rod less anchor, and the tail anchor sometimes adopts rod anchor and dovetail anchor.

  4. There are many types of anchor materials, the most popular are low-carbon steel, high-strength steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Most of the traditional steel anchors we are used to seeing in the market may be low-carbon steel or high-strength steel. When selecting ship anchors, in addition to the factors such as the length and weight of the ship, it is also necessary to carefully select the anchor materials.
