We are proud to present our new floating collar – FR560

This floating collar has been developed to accommodate the harsh locations of the present and the future. Locations with strong currents, high waves, large service vessels and a desire for higher volumes during production place greater demands on the equipment being used. The FR560 is a hybrid of the present day FR500 and the FR630 series. We have chosen to take the strengths and advantages of the FR630 series and combined this with a brand new 560 bracket and tube design. This has delivered enhanced stability, a wider working platform, higher buoyancy and ultimate load during construction, and an innovative bracket that designed with service requirements and extra equipment in mind.

Developed for today’s sites and more exposed locations
Designed with a focus on user-friendliness and flexibility when installing extra equipment
Available in sizes ranging from 120m to 200m circumference

New design

New bracket design and load-bearing structure reduce service intervals, in addition to the 560mm tube dimension enhancing stability and strength of the pen, which will mean that a tremendous 35 tonnes can be achieved in an accident state. With the FR560, you get many of the benefits of the flagship FR630 at a very advantageous cost-benefit ratio.

Steel or plastic brackets

Our floating collars can be supplied with either steel or plastic brackets We also offer an innovative solution where the use of steel and plastic brackets can be combined together. If you require a plastic floating collar but with a mooring bracket made from steel, you will get the greatest flexibility available on the market. When using mooring brackets on the post, you will have a reduced number of brackets, and will also have the ability to retrofit extra equipment to the post.

Extensive experience

ScaleAQ has 40 years’ experience producing floating collars and has manufactured more than 100,000 steel brackets. This means we have very high levels of experience and expertise with these products.
