Chafe Gear, Guards & Sleeves
We sell chafe sleeves on most of our anchor snubbers and bridles, and offer them as an option on many other products. After many years of trying different products, we've settled on two chafe sleeve products which we sell by the foot, and the removable Davis velcro sleeves.
The tubular sleeve products we use in our snubbers and bridles are Chafe Pro and Chafe Master. The former uses a proprietary nylon that's woven into a thick and supple tubing but it's ridiculously expensive. It packs down after it rubs on a chock but it doesn't seem to effect the protection. Chafe Master is the opposite with it's stiff, dense weave that's resistant to abrasion. Both have excellent UV resistance. We sell these products in 1' increments with a 2' minimum. We lightly melt the edge with a torch to prevent unraveling during shipping.
The Davis removable sleeves are ideal replacements for worn out tubular chafe on lines where splices prevent replacement with tubular sleeves.
