Manufactured in Italy from marine grade stainless steel HR and specially designed elastomers (rubber inserts that provide the shock absorption)
Master Mooring Device Facts, Features and Plus Factors:
- Balanced Load bearing capacity
- High load bearing shackle end connectors
- Rated Manufacturer Break Load
- Rated Manufacturer Elasticity
- Sizes 1, 2 and 3 have the same break load but the shore hardness of the elastomer is different to create the right degee of elasticity for the weight of yacht
Douglas Marine publish a manufacturer minimum break load for reassurance:

Jimmy Green Rigging Team Advisory
- Attach a slack warp alongside the spring as a security measure.
- Deploy a second, independent mooring line for reassurance.
These precautions are especially important when the yacht is left unattended for long periods.
