Mustad Autoline has launched HookSeparator™ Coastal, designed for smaller boats with limited space.
The main function of the hook separator is to separate the hooks from the mainline and guide them onto the storage magazines. This is done automatically as the line is hauled onboard. The hook separator is also a slack taker, keeping tension on the line coming from the main hauler.
The hook separator works well with the Autoline Coastal™ System, with both Coastal MagPacker™ and Coastal HandyMag™ Storage system.
The total weight of the new stainless steel HookSeparator™ is 120kg - less than half the weight of the hook separator SP2000. This reduction in weight makes the new hook separator an excellent solution for vessels with weight limitations.
The pressure wheel is spring loaded, making sure the sheaves get maximum grip on the line. The slide rail is specially designed for the various hooks to ensure an efficient re-racking result.
The main reason for its efficiency is the compact and extremely powerful magnets. By catching the hooks, the magnets separate them from the mainline. The hooks are guided on to the storage magazines and the mainline coils and hangs below.
