About product
Our fairleads are essential components for ship mooring and towing operations, designed to effectively guide and secure mooring lines, thereby enhancing safety and reliability during berthing, departure, and other ship operations. They are typically manufactured as circular, oval, or horn-shaped castings, and can be made from cast iron, cast steel, or welded steel plates according to specific requirements. With high structural strength and excellent wear resistance, they are capable of withstanding substantial tensile forces and impact loads.
- Fixed type: Directly welded to the bulwark or deck, featuring a robust structure suitable for standard mooring conditions.
- Rotating type: Equipped with a heavy-duty roller mechanism that transforms static friction into rolling friction, significantly reducing rope wear. This type is ideal for vessels with frequent mooring operations or requiring fast handling.
