Mooring Lines & Hardware
Knotical Marine Line Construction: One of the most important building
blocks of any mooring line is the fiber. We utilize U.S. manufacturers for our
“PREMIUM LINE” three strand nylon, spun from domestic fibers and of four stage
balanced construction, a stabilization process treatment with a proprietary
“Marine Tech” coating to improve wet strength and enhance fiber to fiber
abrasion resistance. The four stage process involves steaming to heat and
preshrink the fibers during the spinning of the different size yarns that
graduate into the finished product. This helps to minimize shrinkage and
hardening of the rope and will inherently provide high strength with stretch for
shock absorption and resistance to UV Rays. The finished product is identified
with colored tracers unique to the rope manufacturer and in accordance with
their stringent quality control specifications.
Our mooring lines are built locally and
professionally hand spliced in our facilities.
The splicing process for
the mooring lines involves a five tuck, flat lay assembly over hot dipped
galvanized or stainless steel thimbles and is heat sealed to prevent unwinding
with minimal stress on the splice.
Lines include a stainless steel bow
eye snap for superior corrosion resistance and performance. Hardware options
range from stainless steel swivel snaps to various connections appropriate for
the application.
