Lashing bars

EC-BAR-xx (see variants)

Steel lashing bars that carry the load between a container corner casting and a deck lashing point, in eye-to-swivel-head-plug and knob types, short for first-tier and long for second-tier lashings.

Description

The lashing bar carries the load between the container and the ship. One end takes the corner casting — either a swivel head plug through the aperture, or a knob fitting — and the other takes a turnbuckle down to the deck lashing point. Short bars (2 400 / 2 500 mm) suit first-tier lashings and long bars (4 700 / 5 000 mm) reach the second tier. Match the bar end type to the turnbuckle end type; where the reach is still short, add an extension bar.

Features

  • Two end types matched to the turnbuckle in use
  • Short bars for first-tier lashings, long bars for second tier
  • Four length and type combinations, each stocked as its own item
  • Extension bars available where the reach is still short

Where it is used

Lashing the first and second tiers of a container stack to the vessel deck; rail wagon securing arrangements.
