AeroLock connector technology eliminates common risks associated with traditional steel shackles and knotted synthetic connectors, making it a game-changer for high-risk industries like commercial marine towing, offshore operations, and heavy lifting.
AeroLock is a high-performance synthetic rope solution made from ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). The connector features an alloy pin design for a more secure and reliable connection. Its abrasion-resistant jacket is engineered to withstand harsh environments while maintaining working load limits of up to 176,400 lb. (80,000 kg) and breaking strengths exceeding 880,000 lb. (399,000 kg).
The patent-pending AeroLock has been field-tested and garnered enthusiastic approval for its performance and reliability.
One of the main benefits of the AeroLock is its ability to reduce the risk of connectors failing under load by mitigating the risk of recoil injuries, a critical safety consideration in heavy towing operations.
Lighter than both steel and knotted connectors, the AeroLock allows for faster rigging without the need for tools, reducing operating costs and downtime.
