Folding line chocks offer surface mount versatility

Folding Line Chocks

Sept 11, 2023

Chocks that hold mooring lines in position enhance the functionality of any boat but can be difficult to install where they’re needed most, such as over bulkheads, adjacent to railings, on swim platforms or on narrow deck spaces. Accon Marine 502 series Surface Mount Folding Chocks not only boast a low-profile design but eliminate the need for cut-outs altogether. They facilitate quick and easy DIY installation just about anywhere, requiring only three screws.

Accon Surface Mount Folding Chocks flip up with light finger pressure when needed, then fold flat when no longer required. This helps preserve a vessel’s clean, uncluttered look while eliminating potential for snagging fishing lines, sheets, straps or other personal items.

Engineered from corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel for exceptional strength and durability, Accon 502-4 version chocks measure under 4″ L x 2-1/2″ W to easily fit crowded deck spaces. Overall height is 1-1/2″ when extended to accommodate up to 5/8″ dia. lines. For larger vessels, Accon 502-6 chocks measure 5-1/4″ L and just over 3″ W, with an overall extended height just under 2″, for mooring lines up to 3/4″ dia.

Sold in pairs with one port and one starboard model.
