Single Bitt Bollard Heavy Duty Double Head Cast Steel/Cast Iron Bollard for Marine Docking

Material and Manufacturing:

In the field of ship mooring, the quality and performance of bollards are directly related to the safety and efficiency of port operations. Today, we are proud to introduce our elaborately crafted flared cast-steel bollards, which have remarkable advantages in materials and manufacturing processes.

Material Advantages

1. Core material: The main materials are high-quality cast steel ZG230-450 (heavy-duty main model, tensile strength ≥ 450 MPa, yield strength ≥ 230 MPa) and high-strength ductile iron QT600-3 (heavy-duty economical model). Customized stainless steel 316L material is also available (suitable for high-corrosion chemical docks / special maritime scenarios). The overall structure has no joint gaps, and it has strong resistance to deformation and fracture, meeting the long-term heavy mooring mechanical requirements.
Precision processing: Sand mold / lost foam precision casting → Overall heat treatment to eliminate internal stress → CNC machining for the column body / base (surface roughness ≤ Ra12.5) → Multiple anti-corrosion treatments → 100% static load / dynamic load pressure test inspection → Ship classification society third-party inspection → Factory full inspection.
Anti-corrosion treatment:
Standard model: Hot-dip galvanizing (zinc layer thickness ≥ 85 μm, salt spray test ≥ 1200 hours), effectively resisting high-salt corrosion in the ocean;
Strengthened model: Hot-dip galvanizing + epoxy zinc-rich primer (80 μm) + polyurethane topcoat (60 μm), double-layer anti-corrosion, suitable for high-corrosion sea areas / chemical docks;
Customized model: Stainless steel natural brushed finish / mirror polished finish, no need for later anti-corrosion maintenance.

Core performance advantage:

Universal structure, wide adaptability: Single-column integrated design, concentrated force and strong stability.Universal structure, wide adaptability: Single-column integrated design, concentrated force and strong stability. It can be used alone to meet the mooring requirements of small and medium-sized ships, or can be combined with multiple units to achieve multi-directional mooring for large ships.

Application Scenarios:

I. Port and Wharf Categories (Heavy-duty Commercial, Core Adapted for Large Load, Corrosion-resistant Ship Columns)
This is the most common application scenario for ship mooring columns, suitable for the mooring of various commercial ports' vessels, capable of withstanding the mooring tension of万吨-class ships, resisting marine salt fog and wind wave impacts. Heavy-duty ship columns made of cast steel / ductile iron and hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection are mostly used.
Oriental commercial ports: Container terminals, bulk cargo terminals, oil and chemical terminals, LNG terminals, cruise mother ports
Inland / coastal ports: Inland shipping terminals, river-sea intermodal transfer terminals, fishing ports, freight ferry terminals
Special operation terminals: Shipyard repair terminals, ship replenishment terminals, temporary mooring points in port operation areas
II. Ship Accessories Categories (Shipboard Deck Type, Adapted for Lightweight, Anti-Vibration Ship Columns)
Used for the deck mooring of various ships, suitable for the vibration and shock during ship navigation, more compact in size, flexible in installation method, mostly using bolt-fixed type ship columns, suitable for ship docking at terminals, temporary mooring at anchorages, and ship-to-ship docking positioning.
Large ships: Deck mooring areas of ocean-going cargo ships, cruise ships, oil tankers, LNG ships, roll-on/roll-off ships
Medium-sized ships: Deck mooring points of inland cargo ships, ferries, engineering ships, fishing vessels
Small ships: Simple installation positions of speedboats, workboats, patrol boats
III. Leisure and Cultural Tourism Categories (Lightweight Leisure, Adapted for Beautiful, Corrosion-resistant Ship Columns)
Mainly for leisure docking, with low load requirements, also considering aesthetics and environmental adaptability. Mostly made of 304/316 stainless steel, polished surface, suitable for the overall style of leisure and cultural tourism scenarios.
Yacht terminals: Coastal / inland lake yacht clubs, private yacht terminals, yacht docking berths
