Lifeboat FPD 100cm, Spectra-Siri Rope, with 2 shackles

The Lifeboat Fall Prevention Device (FPD) Spectra-Siri Rope, with 2 shackles, is used to avoid fatal accidents resulted from malfunction of the on-load release hooks.
It is a top-quality FPD, suitable for most lifeboat types, developed to withstand the applied forces of almost 40 tons and to provide an additional safety in the event of the hook system’s failure. Before the lifeboat release is performed, the FPDs, which are fastened on the fall blocks, are removed. When the lifeboat is recovered, the FPDs are once more being attached to the lifeboat. It is highly recommended to implement the FPDs in any maintenance work to prevent unfortunate incidents and to improve crew’s confidence while operating the lifeboat in an emergency.
