Nylacast developed the Chock Liner application to optimise and enhance vessel mooring. Much of its advantages are owed to the unique and versatile materials technology developed through over 20 years of field experience in design, testing and material selection with fibre ropes. The custom-formulated Engineered Polymer has very low friction and is lightweight and corrosion-resistant.
Nylacast’s Chock Liner material technology accommodates HMPE rope and lowers the risk of abrasion and wear when in contact with the chock or Panama fairlead. The Chock Liner is also suitable for polyester/polypropylene, polyester and nylon ropes, as required for FLNG, FSRU and STS, where a specific synthetic pennant may pass through the fairlead.
The unique material paired with the patented coupling technology provides vessel owners and operators with easy installation and low maintenance to improve efficiency overall. NO hot works or dry docking is required for installation.
The Nylacast Chock Liner is also available in ATEX-approved materials for specific industry requirements.
Vessel designers, owners and operators request the Chockliner for new vessels and a retrofit solution to replace Panama fairleads and roller fair leads.
