Mooring Tails

General

  • Generally when mooring by steel wire rope, a fiber cable tail is required for more elasticity to reduce the load under dynamic loading. Tails permit the ship to respond more favorably when subjected to various wind, wave and current conditions. Tails also tend to distribute the loading more evenly compared to mooring lines without tails.
  • Made of various materials, especially Nylon, PP & Polyester Mixed, PP Multifilament,  UHMWPE yarns which have more elasticity than other normal materials.
