Product Information

Designed specially with regards to safety and functionality on board. The MagPacker is a strong stainless steel rack keeping the heavy magazines loaded with hooks and line in place. Optional line press system.
Heavy magazines are moved in position for setting or hauling by manual operations. Empty magazines are pushed into a temporary storage position above the rack awaiting hauling operation.

110 mm spacing < = 7 mm main line
125 mm spacing < = 9 mm main line
160 mm spacing < = 11 mm main line

One person operates the system and can easily position the storage magazines to setting or hauling positions.
The magazines
The Magazines are made of aluminium and stainless steel, with complete sliding rails, inspection slits and hatches for simple mounting of hooks and snoods. The adjustable Magazines can easily be adapted to different hook types and sizes by adjusting the top rail.
