Our GMH-type quick release mooring hooks are also frequently used on mooring buoys. They come standard with a rope keeper to prevent the mooring lines from accidentally slipping, like in the event of waves. Typically, these hooks are sold as single units designed to be incorporated into the buoy's structure, but they're also available in multi-hook assemblies.
The GMH standard mooring hook is user-friendly, even when loaded to its full Safe Working Load (SWL). It features a two-step release mechanism to guard against unintentional openings. All our quick-release mooring hooks can be simply reset with a twist. During release, rubber blocks help mitigate the energy impact.
Our quick release hooks for mooring buoys come in an array of capacities, ranging from 40 to 200 tons (SWL per hook).
