Double Bitt Bollard, often referred to as a Twin Horn Bollard, is a crucial component for any secure mooring system in high-traffic marine environments. Its characteristic dual-post design allows for the safe and efficient handling of multiple mooring lines from one or more vessels without interference. This makes it perfectly suited for commercial ports, container terminals, and heavy-duty berthing zones where operational efficiency and space are critical.
Key Advantages
-
- High Load Capacity: Engineered to handle safe working loads of up to 300 tons, our Double Bitt Bollards are suitable for mooring a wide range of vessels, from small boats to large cargo ships and tankers.
- Handles Multiple Lines: The twin horn design provides superior stability and security, allowing multiple lines to be secured on a single bollard, distributing tension evenly and minimizing the risk of slippage.
- Corrosion Resistant: Manufactured from high-grade cast steel or ductile cast iron and finished with marine-grade protective coatings, these bollards are built to withstand the harshest saltwater environments and offer a long, trouble-free service life.
- Durable Construction: The robust construction from materials like cast steel and ductile iron ensures long-term durability and reliable performance in demanding maritime operations.
- Compact Footprint: Designed with a narrow base, these bollards are ideal for installations on wharves and jetties where working space is limited, without compromising on mooring capacity.
Our Double Bitt Bollards are manufactured in compliance with international standards such as ISO 13795 and DIN 82607 to guarantee quality and performance. They are available in various sizes and load ratings to meet specific project requirements and can be supplied with certifications from major classification societies like ABS, CCS, and DNV.
