Single Bitt Bollards| American Type Dock Mooring Solution
Single bitt bollards, (also known as American-style bollards) are particularly suitable for locations with significant tidal ranges and capable of withstanding steep mooring line angles. They can accommodate multiple mooring lines and are designed to be compatible with existing bolt hole positions on older American-style bollards. Compared to double bitt bollards, this single-column structure offers simpler construction while still meeting mooring requirements for small to medium-sized vessels.
As a core product line of dock bollards for sale, OLIPORTS offers multiple specifications of dock bollards for sale and supports custom manufacturing based on varying mooring force requirements. Global export shipping is available.
