Panama Chock SWL-20t
Karmøy Winch Panama Chock SWL-20t — Anchor & Mooring Equipment. The supplied category identifies the equipment as Panama Chock, and it is normally installed at a mooring station on the forecastle, poop deck or vessel side where mooring lines pass between winches and shore. In that listed role, its primary purpose is to guide mooring rope or wire along the designed lead while limiting chafe and transferring line load into the deck structure. Roller fairleads provide moving contact surfaces, while Panama chocks provide a fixed shaped opening; both rely on sound structure and smooth line-contact surfaces. Within the supplied list, neighbouring variants are distinguished by their model designations and naming, while the source does not state further model-specific hardware differences. No additional performance, approval or construction detail is inferred from the model code beyond the information supplied in the source record. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
