How is the Hazelett Maintenance Free Elastic Mooring System a New Solution?
|
|
|
Traditional Steel Chain A conventional mooring system employs a chain or a combination of chain and nylon line to connect the anchor to the buoy. In storm conditions, the chain straightens out to a rod of steel and nylon line reaches the limit of its stretch. |
Hazelett Elastic Rode The Elastic Rode or Elastic pennant offers a unique solution. The specially engineered elastic properties absorb the peak loads and maintain a much lower steady pull, which also reduces yawing. Under extreme loading, such as the impact of a breakaway boat or surge in the water depth, the elastic rode may elongate up to 300%. |
