Mooring tails offer excellent elasticity which play a key role in the mooring arrangement and system, and thus prevent damage to the primary mooring line, ensuring safer operation. Particularly suitable for use in combination with steel or UHMWPE ropes, they are also easy to splice, UV resistant, rot-proof, and highly abrasion resistant, making them an essential protection for primary mooring lines.
The Tails have two types, including Single Leg Tail and Grommet Type Tail.
Single Leg Tail: Standard 11m tails with 1m one end and 2m other end: adequate for sheltered pier side moorings where little or no wave induced vessel motions occur.
22m tails: to be used at exposed pier side moorings where significant ship motions occur; will typically only be required for breast lines and may not be necessary for spring lines.
Grommet Type Tail: Grommet type tails are used in special applications requiring high strengths. The eyes are formed by lashings (seizing the two rope bodies together to form an eye).
The strength of a Grommet mooring tail is 1.7 times the strength of a single leg (of the same material, construction and size) and its length depends on the customer's requirements.
