AqualLine Mobile Harbour Crane Sockets – Developed for heavy-duty port crane operations

AqualLine Mobile Harbour Crane Sockets are compatible with commonly used Gottwald crane sockets and provide a reliable rope termination for hoisting systems subjected to high tensile loads during container transfers and general cargo handling.  

This compatibility allows straightforward integration into existing crane configurations used in daily port operations.

  • Compatible with commonly used Gottwald crane sockets
  • Suitable for hoisting systems used in container transfers and general cargo lifting operations
  • Optional roller configuration helps distribute chain loads more evenly, supporting longer socket service life

The socket is designed and tested to meet the performance requirements of EN 13411-4, with an efficiency rating of 100%.
