Drilling
Reef pins are installed into the denser dead coral of the reef. The only impact on the reef is the diameter of the drill bit (1-1/2 in).
The hydraulic drill hammer, supported from a vessel above, is the least obtrusive means of installing a mooring.
Ease of drilling is accomplished by the use of a carbide bit.
Installation
The hot-dipped galvanized reef pin has a forged eye, with a large eye to accept larger diameter shackles or mooring line with protective hose.
The pin is 18 inches long with a diameter of 1-1/4 inches, offering a larger surface area than the typical pin for the epoxy to adhere to.
Injection of our epoxy cement is quick and clean and generates holding power far beyond typical cement.
