Chafing Gear
Chafing Gear protects expensive mooring and tow lines from damage. Easy to install and remove, Chafing Gear works equally as well with chain and wire rope assemblies.
Chafing Gear is available in three materials: Web, Bulked Nylon or Felt.
Chafing Gear made with Web (3/16″thickness) is the most popular.
Chafe Gear with Bulked Nylon (3/32″thickness) is four times more abrasion resistant than Web Chafe Gear. Felt Chafe Gear (1/4″ thickness-high density felt) provides a “cushion” effect.
It may be ordered in a single long length for on-site cutting and installation of various lengths as required.
Widely used by US Coast Guard and other military ships.
Chaffing Gear is the most optimal and cost efficient way of protecting your expensive mooring, towing and anchor lines.
We offer this Chaffing Gear to the US Government on our GSA Schedule Contract GS-07F-0235T
