Spud & Spudwell Attachments

Holding Spud and Spudwell Attachments are available in several sizes and capacities. Used in multiples, they serve to position and securely anchor floating assemblies against lateral forces resulting from current, wind and on-deck machinery.

Spudwells, which function as vertical guide sleeves for Spud columns, connect to the perimeter of Flexifloat assemblies by means of the integral lock system. Spuds may be raised either by the on-deck machine or by a mechanical or hydraulic winch and a two-part line system. Holding Spuds depend on gravity drop and bottom penetration for horizontal holding.
