Storm Shark Jaws

Storm designs and produces standard and custom Shark Jaws for multiple types of vessels: service vessels, fishing vessels, tug boats. Shark jaws are designed according to Norwegian Maritime Directorate regulations.

Our Shark Jaws follows our philosophy: quality build, robust for maximum uptime and minimal servicing needed. As standard we offer our shark jaws units with seawater resistant surface treatment.

Storm Shark Jaws follow a modular type design that allows for more easy configuration, maintenance, replacement and upgrade. Typically alongside Shark Jaws, Towing Pins are in the same package. Modular design means we do not weld the Shark Jaw and Towing Pin units to the vessel deck, but we weld a standard box onto the vessel and the units will be bolted inside box. The standard box adds to the functionality by allowing easy service of the Shark Jaws unit by unbolting and lifting the unit onto deck and by having the possibility to quickly upgrade to a different Shark Jaws by simply unbolting the old one and replacing with the new one.

At customer request we supply also shark jaws with direct welding to deck.
