Belaying Pin

Belaying pins are essential marine hardware items used in the field of ship and marine equipment. They are part of the supply class Marine Hardware and Hull Items, which falls under the supply group Ship and Marine Equipment.

Belaying pins are cylindrical wooden or metal rods with a tapered end. They are typically used on sailing vessels to secure ropes or lines in place. Belaying pins are inserted into holes or cleats on the ship's deck or railings, and the ropes are wrapped around them to provide a secure hold.

These pins are crucial for various tasks on a ship, such as securing sails, tying off lines, or creating temporary anchor points. They are designed to withstand the forces exerted by the ropes and ensure that they remain in place during sailing or docking operations.

Belaying pins are available in different sizes and materials, depending on the specific requirements of the vessel and its equipment. They are an essential part of the marine hardware inventory and play a vital role in maintaining the safety and functionality of a ship.
