Description
Our Double Braid Equalizer Mooring Pendant is made in the USA from two sections of rope that form a Y and slide through each other, for securing your boat to a mooring ball. Because the sections slide, there is always equal tension on both bow cleats, even when the boat sways, and the boat stays in line with the buoy, which adds life to both the pendant and your boat. It's a polyester cover over a nylon core: the polyester resists sun and wear better, and the nylon gives strength and stretch. The double braid is torque free, so it won't kink, and it resists rot, mildew, marine growth, chemicals and petroleum products. It's the step up from our 3 strand Equalizer, with a tougher cover.
- Also called a double braid mooring line
- Two stainless steel thimbles on the long leg, two eyes on the V
- Chafe guard where the thimble slides and where the rope meets the boat
- Comes in 7 colors
- Made just for your order, so it's final sale
Questions
How it works
How does the equalizer work?
It is two sections of rope in a Y shape that slide through each other. That equalizes the tension. There is always equal tension on your boat cleats, even when the boat sways in the water.
How long is each leg?
The shorter V leg is 40% of the total length. It has two eye splices that attach to the cleats on the front of your boat. The longer leg is 60% of the total length. It attaches to the mooring ball and has stainless steel thimble splices on both ends.
Where is the chafe guard?
It is where the thimble slides and where the rope could touch the boat. It protects the rope from rubbing.
What it is made of
Why a polyester cover over a nylon core?
The polyester on the outside has greater UV and abrasion resistance. The nylon core gives the rope high strength and stretch.
Will it kink?
No. This rope is torque free and will not kink.
What sizes and colors can I get?
We offer 7 different colors and a variety of diameters and lengths.
