Mooring Ropes
OTS manufactures high-quality mooring ropes designed for permanent mooring applications and wet storage environments. Our products are developed to provide reliable strength, durability, and long service life in demanding marine conditions.
Our mooring lines can be supplied as either single-core ropes or multicore ropes, depending on the required performance and application. For projects requiring higher minimum breaking load (MBL), our multicore rope solutions offer increased strength and enhanced load-bearing capacity while maintaining dependable handling characteristics.
With a focus on safety, performance, and reliability, OTS provides mooring rope solutions suitable for long-term use in offshore, aquaculture, and other marine installations
Made with Dyneema® DM20 with ultra low creep performance. DM20 is a UHMWPE based fiber grade from DSM Dyneema with ultra low creep performance, typically used in ropes that are permanently maintained under tension.

The patented chafe gear - OTS Protective jacket™ - offers excellent protection against external abrasion and increases rope lifetime with up to five times. The "no-rupture" construction combined with the worlds most abrasion resistant synthetic fibers, makes this the best cut -and abrasion resistant cover for your ropes. The jacket is mechanically braided onto the rope for a firm and solid finish.
OTS Protective jacket™ is braided in the following combinations:
- Soft eyes
- Soft eyes and required length (for instance over the splices)
- Exposed area on the rope
- Entire rope length
OTS Protective Jacket™
- Made with HMPE or polyester fiber.
- The OTS Protective Jacket™ comes out as a clear winner in comparative testing of abrasion and cut resistance.
- Excellent protection against wear and tear.
- Patented technology
Advantages
- Increases service life.
- Can be braided onto entire rope or exposed areas.
- Prevents rope from twisting.
- Protects rope from external abrasion.
- Reduced size of mooring line.
- Reflective material can be woven into jacket band for better visibility.
- Jacket band can be delivered in any colour.
Patent no: 314459
OTS Chafe Gear™ has been used by operators in the marine and oil & gas industry for over a decade, and lately it has also become more common in the fishing industry. The durable construction with its high abrasion resistance is demonstrated daily.
There are two types of OTS Chafe Gear™; a sleeve without axial velcro which is used prior to and during splicing of the rope, and a sleeve with super strong velcro which enable assembling of the sleeve anywhere on the rope without re-splicing. The chafe gear is also fitted on chains and other hardware to protect sorroundings from chafing against the hardware.
Options
- Ears for fastening of seizing rope
- Velcro locking straps in the ends and/or mid-sections of the sleeve
- Loocking hoops
