What is a mooring bollard

Q1: What is a mooring bollard?
A mooring bollard secures vessels to docks, piers, or offshore platforms during berthing. For integrated solutions, see SME marine fender solutions.

 

Q2: What types of dock bollards are available?
Ports commonly use single bollards, double bollards, T-head bollards, open cleat bollards, or custom designs for specific operations.

 

Q3: What materials do bollards use?
SME manufactures bollards from high-strength steel, cast iron, or stainless steel and applies protective coatings like epoxy paint or glass flake to resist corrosion.

 

Q4: How does SME test marine bollards?
SME engineers test bollards for strength, fatigue, and durability. They perform load checks, inspect corrosion resistance, and evaluate performance under harsh marine conditions following PIANC standards.

 

Q5: Where do ports use mooring bollards?
Ports, harbors, offshore platforms, and floating docks rely on mooring bollards to secure vessels safely.
