Easy Release slip hook system
To manually release a liferaft, is many times the last possibility to launch a liferaft in a controlled manner, before the vessel is going down. Many of the slip hooks seen on the market today have a lot of disadvantages, such as:
- Weak construction that will not withstand lashing load of large modern liferafts.
- Very difficult to release under load - many times you need tools to free the slip hook!
- In most situations it is impossible to release a conventional slip hook with only one hand. CM Hammar has now developed a patented solution to the problem with the "Easy Release" slip hook system.
The new product has several strong advantages:
- Strong construction in stainless steel, that will withstand 15 kN lashing load.
- Easy to release even under high lashing load.
- Easy to release with only one hand.
- Economical priced.
