WIN®

Winch Lines & Mooring Tails

Purpose-built winch lines and mooring tails: round, jacketed constructions that run cleanly over winches and capstans, and elastic tails that protect primary mooring lines under OCIMF MEG4 line management.

Why WIN®? Why WIN®? A jacketed winch line protects its load-bearing core exactly where wear happens — at the drum — while tails tuned to your primary lines absorb the dynamic peaks.
WIN-MONO®
Nylon · 6-Strand

WIN-MONO®

6-strand construction keeps the rope round; polyamide monofilament combined with polyamide multifilament ensures excellent abrasion and UV resistance. Round and stiff construction runs easily over a winch — much lighter and easier to handle than the steel rope it replaces.

MOORING TAIL — DURA TAIL & TOUGH TAIL
MEG4 Tails

MOORING TAIL — DURA TAIL & TOUGH TAIL

Mooring tails provide good elasticity and sudden shock absorption when windy weather or big waves come — a necessary protection for the primary mooring line. Easy to splice, UV-resistant, rot-proof with high abrasion resistance.
