Quick Release Hooks and Capstans (American Made)
Brand: Washington Chain & Supply
Category: Mechanical Quick Release Hooks
Washington Chain & Supply manufactures one of the marine industry’s most trusted Quick Release Hook systems. Their patented release design supports safe and controlled mooring operations for vessels of varying sizes, including heavy-tonnage ships positioned farther from shore. The hooks rotate freely — up to 180° horizontally and 45° vertically — ensuring a proper line-of-pull and reducing stress on the vessel and dock structure.
WCS offers both traditional and rotary models, each available in multiple orientations and capacities. All components include a long-lasting metalized zinc coating for extended service life in harsh marine environments. When paired with WCS capstans, these systems deliver dependable, ergonomic line handling for terminals, industrial docks, and high-capacity berths.
