Description
UNIMER's range of Classic Mooring Dampeners enable all yachtsmen and sports sailors to protect their boat's mooring lines by limiting jolts and rope wear. The brand's reputation for designing products for the nautical world is well established. The brand's reputation for designing products for the nautical world is well established.
These classic mooring line shock absorbers from UNIMER are made from EPDM rubber. They are resistant to high tension, weather, ozone and seawater. They are available for several rope diameters: 10 to 12 mm, 12 to 16 mm, 14 to 18 mm and 20 to 24 mm.
Be sure to check the rope size before selecting the standard UNIMER mooring line shock absorber.
A mooring line shock absorber is fitted at the end of each mooring line, which is attached to the bitt or to a mooring ring. The end of the rope wraps two or three turns around the mooring line. The more turns, the greater the protection of the mooring line. When the swell is strong, the shock absorber tensions the mooring line. Without this element, the mooring line wears out more quickly as it is subjected to a permanent effort of resistance against the swell to stabilise the boat as best as possible.
There are also metal shock absorbers where the rope is fixed in springs. Although rubber shock absorbers are less robust, they are resistant to UV rays, corrosion and make no noise.
