Novabraid Nova Blue Double Mooring Pendant 5/8" x 15'View all products in Mooring Pendants & Bridles

The pendants are made with Novablue Double Braid Polyester Rope coated with an orange Urethane Coating to minimize contamination from marine growth and increase chafe protection.  Each leg has a heavy duty Galvanized Thimble that connects to a galvanized steel pear link for easy attachment to the bottom tackle using a shackle or swivel (not provided).  At the boat end, each pendant has a 15” Soft eye with a sewn in keeper line for positive attachment around the cleat.  3’ feet of moveable chafe sleeve is installed on both ropes to minimize abrasion and can be located and sewn in place anywhere on the mooring rope for additional protection.  The pendant is sold in a handy nylon mesh bag, ideal for winter storage.

 

Novatec Braids recommends periodic inspection of mooring gear to assure the integrity of the mooring system.  Chafe gear should be located wherever the pendant passes over sharp or metal objects such as chocks or deck hardware and care should be taken to avoid direct contact with bow anchors, bowsprits, bobstays or other hardware below deck level.  In areas where there is abundant marine growth, pendants should be periodically cleaned and excess algae and barnacles need to be removed at least semi annually using a stiff bristle brush to clean.   When not in use, rinse the mooring pendant with fresh water and let dry completely before storage. Store in a dry area and avoid subjecting the rope to freezing.
