Hydraulic shark jaw clamping anchor chain
Retractable shark jaw installed on vessel deck

Shark Jaw (Hydraulic Type)

  • Application:

    Engineered for secure gripping and holding of anchor chains, towing lines, and mooring ropes during offshore operations | Essential for safe and efficient deck handling on anchor handling tug supply (AHTS) vessels | Ensuring stability and control during critical operations

  • Basic Parameters:

    • Applicable Chain/Rope Diameter: 50–120 mm (customizable)
    • Holding Force: Up to 150 tons
    • Hydraulic Pressure: 150–250 bar
    • Material: High-strength alloy steel with corrosion protection
    • Control Mode: Manual, local, or remote (integrated into deck control system)
  • Key Features:
    • Heavy-duty construction for high holding force
    • Hydraulic retractable design for flush deck integration
    • Exchangeable insert jaws for different chain/rope sizes
    • Anti-corrosion coating for harsh marine environments
    • Integrated with stopper and towing pin systems if needed

 

Description:

Hydraulic shark jaws are critical safety components installed on the working deck of AHTS and offshore vessels. Designed to grip anchor chains or towing ropes securely, they prevent uncontrolled movement during anchor deployment or recovery. With retractable mechanisms, shark jaws stay flush with the deck when not in use, allowing unobstructed operations. Their robust hydraulic system enables quick engagement and release, even under heavy tension, enhancing crew safety and operational efficiency in offshore towing and mooring tasks.
