Mooring and Anchoring

Ready-made mooring lines and ropes for mooring and anchoring.

Here we have gathered ropes and specially manufactured products for the mooring and anchoring of recreational boats and commercial shipping. Twisted rope has traditionally been used for mooring boats and is still the most popular rope for this purpose. The construction provides good elasticity, allowing the mooring to withstand jerks, pulls and other stresses a boat may encounter. Repbutiken offers a wide range of ropes suitable for mooring and anchoring, as well as several pre-spliced mooring lines with thimbles, loops, metal springs, or rubber springs.

When mooring all types of boats (and for other applications), it is important to use high-quality ropes of the correct size. A mooring line is subject to various wear depending on its location, how it is moored and the external stresses it is exposed to. The cost of a mooring line is minimal compared to the vessel, making it worth spending a little extra to minimize the risk of damage to the boat.

A mooring line should be inspected regularly and replaced every few years or when noticeable wear is present. During the winter months, mooring lines should be stored indoors and at the end of the season, they should be cleaned with regular dish soap and water. A mooring line or anchor line is subjected to sunlight, saltwater, moisture, oil, diesel, chemicals, abrasion and heavy jerks and pulls. These external factors require a rope made of durable and chemical-resistant material to ensure that the boat or dock is not damaged during mooring or anchoring.
