SlideMoor Plus System
Our Plus or Standard System is designed to secure vessels from 16’ to 120’ LOA in most applications. The typical System consists of two of our aluminum Tracks mounted to a vertical support structure (piling, seawall, bulkhead, etc.) and an aluminum and stainless steel Slide that vertically traverses the Track. The Slides range in size from 18” to 48” in length depending upon the vessel size and rub rail configuration. Each Slide comes complete with a black marine grade rubber bumper and two cleats to accommodate the mooring lines. A minimum of two (2) Plus Units are needed for each System.
SlideMoor Heavy Duty (“HD”) Slide System
Identical to our Plus System with the exception of an HD rubber bumper that is approximately 4 times as robust as our Standard Plus bumper. Primarily used for vessels over 60’ LOA or in areas subject to very heavy wave action.
SlideMoor Standoff Slide
Identical to our Plus System with the exception of an extra 3” horizontal reach from the SlideMoor Track providing additional horizontal clearance from the piling. Primarily used for vessels with hard tops or railings that overhang the rub rail or vessels with a significant hull curvature.
SlideMoor Piling Extender
A heavy duty gusseted aluminum bracket designed to attach to the top of an existing piling and provide additional height support for longer Tracks on short pilings. Piling Extenders are available in both 24” and 40” lengths.
SlideMoor RatcheTite Line Tensioners
Our stainless-steel heavy duty RatcheTite Line Tensioners are designed to provide the user with a significant mechanical advantage when tying the vessel tight against the SlideMoor System. The RatcheTites allow the user to keep the vessel’s rub rail pressed tightly against the SlideMoor Slides thus eliminating almost 100% of any damaging lateral momentum while docked. Each RatcheTite replaces one SlideMoor Slide cleat and comes complete with a specially designed low stretch double braided marine grade dock line and all necessary hardware. RatcheTites are designed to easily retrofit to all SlideMoor Slides, regardless of age.
SlideMoor SlideAssist Lifting Device
The SlideMoor SlideAssist is designed to help the user lift the Slide on the Track while approaching or leaving the dock. The SlideAssist is in effect a small two-part line block and tackle that minimizes the weight of the Slide when not tied to the vessel. It comes complete with all necessary hardware and is designed to easily retrofit to all SlideMoor Slides, regardless of age.
SlideMoor Floating Dock Bracket (“FDB”)
The SlideMoor Floating Dock Bracket is designed to secure floating docks to any fixed vertical structure such as a piling, seawall or bulkhead. Much like the standard Plus System, each FDB System requires a minimum of two (2) units consisting of our aluminum Y-Beam Track and an aluminum and stainless steel Slide. However, the FDB Slide does not include a rubber bumper. Instead, each FDB Slide features ¼” stainless steel brackets that allow it to be bolted directly to the floating dock. As with the SlideMoor Plus System this arrangement controls almost 100% of lateral movement thus making the floating dock considerably more stable. Our FDB System makes walking on even the smallest floating dock or walkway a much more comfortable experience. SlideMoor FDB’s are available in several configurations to accommodate wood, metal and plastic modular floating docks.
SlideMoor Piling Proxy (“PP”) Dock Bracket
The SlideMoor Piling Proxy Bracket is a self-supporting, dock mounted aluminum and stainless steel replacement for one of the two pilings needed to accommodate a SlideMoor Docking System. The PP Bracket simply bolts directly to the horizontal walking area of the dock and is designed to replace one of the two pilings required to properly install a SlideMoor System. The PP System is simple to install, does not typically require any construction permits, can be located anywhere along the dock to align with one of the two vessel cleats and can be easily relocated to accommodate another vessel. The PP System includes one (1) 8’ aluminum Track (the longest Track available for a PP System) and one (1) Slide. It is designed to be used for vessels up to and including 40’ LOA in quiet water. Only one (1) PP Bracket may be used per SlideMoor Docking System Installation and must be used in conjunction with one (1) existing conventional robust vertical piling.
