ISO 13728 Panama Chock Type B Features:
- Bulwark-mounted: Different from Type A, It is designed for installation directly onto the ship’s bulwark, ideal for guiding mooring lines from the deck outward.
- Durable Construction: Built from cast steel to withstand the pulling forces of mooring lines on large vessels. Typical safe working loads (SWL) range from 70 to 79 tonnes.
- Standardized Design: Conforms to the ISO 13728 standard, guaranteeing compatibility with mooring equipment used in most major ports and canals globally.
- Nominal Sizes: Offered in diameters of 310mm and 360mm to accommodate various mooring line thicknesses.
ISO 13728 Panama Chock Type B Benefits:
- Efficient Mooring Line Guidance: The Panama Chock Type B channels mooring lines from the deck over the bulwark, reducing friction and wear during maneuvering.
- Enhanced Safety: By providing a designated route for mooring lines, it helps prevent entanglement and potential hazards on the bulwark.
- Optimized Deck Space: Frees up valuable deck space by guiding mooring lines outwards from the bulwark, improving operational efficiency.
The ISO 13728 Panama Chock Type B is an essential piece of equipment for large ships, promoting safe, efficient, and space-saving mooring line management from the bulwark.
