A new generation of mooring bollards
THE NEW GENERATION MOORING BOLLARDS
E.J. Bean & Co was founded in 1949 by Captain E.J. Bean – a pilot with the Port of London Authority. Over the course of its history the company has developed an unrivalled reputation in the quayside mooring marketplace. Today, E J Bean designs & manufactures one of the most comprehensive lines in spheriodal graphite, cast iron & cast steel marine bollards worldwide. The product range includes various types & designs of mooring bollards in all sizes and capacities.
E J Bean also designs and manufactures custom castings
but not limited to, availability of accurate wind and current
for special applications. This brochure has been compiled in order to provide a framework which will allow an engineer

Proper selection of a bollard given a specific loading requires an understanding of how that load acts on the

TRITON BOLLARD The Triton bollard has been developed as the new generation of mooring bollards. By utilisation of FEA and physical testing we have been able to optimise the design of the product to meet the strengths requirements of the market, the mooring angles of the vessels and in turn offer an economic advantage over the current bollards on the market.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING E J Bean is constantly developing existing designs in line with current legislation for maritime structures. Utilising cast iron, spheroidal graphite and cast steel, we are able to design bollards to facilitate the accommodation of larger vessels with more acute mooring angles at quaysides worldwide. As part of this development E J Bean have launched the new Triton range of bollards which was commissioned with the aim of producing the most cost effective and technically advanced bollard on the market. The new range of bollards have been designed using the latest Finite Element Analysis (FEA) techniques combined with physical testing to verify the design performance. TRITON BOLLARD Metric Tonne
