The ISO 13733:2020 Roller Fairlead with Upper Roller is a high-quality marine component designed to ensure smooth and controlled movement of ropes, cables, and mooring lines. This fairlead conforms to the ISO 13733:2020 standard, ensuring dimensional accuracy, material quality, and performance reliability. The inclusion of an upper roller provides additional support and reduces wear on the rope, making it ideal for demanding applications.  This fairlead is essential for maintaining proper rope alignment, preventing chafing and damage, and ensuring the safe and efficient operation of lifting and pulling systems.

Depending on the construction, universal fairleads shall be classified as belonging to one of the following four types:

  • Type 4R: with one rope-passing opening;
  • Type 5RL: with one rope-passing opening with an additional guide roller on the left side;
  • Type 5RR: with one rope-passing opening with an additional guide roller on the right side;
  • Type 7R: with two rope-passing openings.
