Technical Description
The T-ISS PX01B is a manual release hook engineered to meet the most stringent SOLAS requirements for lifeboats and rescue boats. Its off-load mechanism ensures release only occurs when the boat is already floating and no load is applied — a fundamental safety requirement that eliminates the risk of accidental release during hoisting or lowering. From January 2026, the PX01B is approved exclusively for lifeboats and rescue boats, in compliance with the latest SOLAS updates.
Constructed from stainless steel 316 and Duplex steel, the PX01B offers high corrosion resistance in harsh marine environments, making it suitable for offshore operations and vessels in tropical and saline waters. With a SWL of 30 kN, it supports large lifeboats used on merchant vessels, offshore platforms, and special-purpose ships.
Eurosul is the official distributor and authorized service station for T-ISS hooks in Brazil, providing specialized technical support, periodic inspection, and component replacement as required by the standard — every 5 years. This service is essential to maintain compliance with classification society surveys and maritime authority inspections.
