Updated for 2024, this version introduces improvements aimed at durability, rope management, and ease of handling on site. Designed to support precise lowering operations, it allows the working line to be managed confidently while keeping setup straightforward for the operator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompact design with improved rope handling\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rigging bollard is built around a single-bollard configuration and incorporates dual-entry rope guides, allowing the rope to be fed from either side depending on the work position. Front and rear aluminium fairleads guide the line smoothly through the device, supporting consistent rope flow during lowering. Because the fairleads are replaceable, long-term wear can be managed without replacing the entire unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eControlled lowering with practical load capacity\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Stein SMB1000 Rigging Bollard is rated with a working load limit of 1000 kg and is suitable for use with ropes up to 14 mm in diameter. This capacity supports a wide range of controlled lowering tasks while maintaining a compact footprint. Weighing 4.3 kg, the device can be mounted by a single operator, which helps speed up installation and reduces strain during setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTree protection and secure mounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo help minimise contact damage to the tree, the device is fitted with replaceable preservation rubbers. These components act as a buffer between the bollard and the stem during use. The supplied ratchet strap uses 50 mm webbing with a breaking strength of 6000 kg and complies with EN12195-2:2001. This strap allows the bollard to be secured to trees up to 145 cm in diameter, supporting stable positioning throughout the operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle bollard lowering device with 2024 design updates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaceable aluminium fairleads to manage wear over time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-entry rope guides for flexible rope routing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront and rear fairleads support smooth rope travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaceable preservation rubbers to help protect the tree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact weight allows single-operator installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreaking strength of 6000 kg\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum tree diameter is 145 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for use with ropes up to 14 mm in diameter\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis device weighs 4.3 kg, with a working load limit of 1000 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBollard finish - Lacquered with rust prevention\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall dimensions of 210mm wide and 310mm high\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBollard measures 73mm in diameter and 140mm in length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fletcher Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":52425358999895,"sku":"SS-24SMB1000","price":236.88,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/0785\/8263\/files\/Stein-SMB1000-Rigging-Bollard.jpg?v=1767099799","url":"https:\/\/treeworker.com\/products\/stein-smb1000-rigging-bollard","provider":"www.treeworker.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
