strong relationships! The Katradis Group of Companies originated from a ship supply company specializing in the production of high quality ropes, which was established by Constantinos Katradis in 1936 and has since become a pioneer in the field of manufacture. In recent years, under the guidance and expertise of the current managing directors Nikolaos & Constantinos Katradis, the Group has enjoyed vast expansion in terms of products, service, technology and clientele due to the unrivalled quality of its commodities. Today, with over 70 years of experience, the Group is undoubtedly prominent in the field of ropes and excels as the manufacturer of wire ropes. The Group provides services as manufacturers, stockists, importers, exporters, distributors and dealers and they each serve the marine and industrial sector in an efficient and cost-effective manner, with the support of the extensive global network of affiliated establishments, agents, suppliers and representatives, who are favourably positioned at all major ports thereby guaranteeing immediate service. Aspiring to broaden its horizons, in the early 1980’s the Group endeavoured to supply marine paints and owing to its success in this field, it continued to develop high quality protective coatings known as Shark Marine Paints. Furthermore, the Group has now secured a competitive role in the provision of a large assortment of anodes including zinc hull anodes, aluminium hull anodes, zinc tank anodes, zinc pit guard anodes, aluminium tank anodes and aluminium pit guard tank anodes. The Katradis Group boasts a large stock of Vessels Deck Equipment in Piraeus and globally, in addition to the vast array of Port Developement Equipment such as rubber fenders, buoys, floating marinas, bollards and oil booms. Strategically located in the vicinity of the port of Piraeus, thereby ensuring easy and rapid access, the Group’s headquarters occupy an extensive area of 9000m2 and house a horizontal automatic testing bench, which provides technical support to all Piraeus-based shipping companies. The Katradis Group prides itself in being compliant with the classification societies LLOYD’S REGISTER (ISO 9001), ABS, BV, GERMANISCHER LLOYD and LLOYD’S REGISTER and all its products are designed and manufactured in accordance with DIN, BS, CI, EN, ISO, ASTM, MIL and other international standards. Due to the dedication of its personnel and competent technical staff, who are always eager to offer technical advice and support, it has acquired an established clientele that includes the Public Power Cooperation, the Hellenic Navy, shipping companies, shipyards, major engineering and construction companies and offshore rigging corporations.

Mooring Ropes

ROPE CARE IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE MORE EFFICIENT USE AND LONGER LIFE FOR YOUR ROPES ALWAYS REMEMBER TO AVOID:

• Contact or even exposure to any kind of heat. • Friction, especially over sharp edges. • Dragging over the ground or any other rough surface. • Storing on heated surface - especially metal. • Sunder tension when the Rope is in use (shock/dynamic loading). • Contact with chemicals of any type & rust. • Surging, during capstan or winch head rotation. • Placing the Ropes near chains and wire. • Suspending loads for extended periods of time • Knotting ropes to join or hold, use splices instead ( knots reduce rope’s strength by up to 50% )

FOR SAFETY PURPOSES • Do not use worn Ropes. • Never stand in line with a Rope under tension. It may recoil, in case of overload/failure, with considerable force (snap back effect) • Never exceed the strength of a Rope (Working Load Limit). • Always make sure splices are intact. • Make sure, that the end of the Rope is fast to bitts and not just on drum end. • Inspect the Rope periodically, and replace it if you find it worn or frayed.

Q U A L I T Y CO N T R O L All our ropes are tested in our Automatic Testing Machine, approved by Lloyd’s Register and accepted by the major classification societies: BV No. 1LPR-93, GL No. 20287 AT, LRS No. 307205, ABS No. 93-PR 7060-321 With the computer controlled tensile testing machine, we carry out the tensile breaking strength of yarns according to ΕΝ, ISO, CI, and ASTM standards. The suntest mashine checks the yarns’ behaviour in the condition of accelerated aging and the necessary amount of U.V. protection additives for a long term exposure in sunlight.

N I K A CO R D ¨ Nika-Cord® ropes are produced in 24-strands, 12-strands and 8-strands braided form.

N I K A CO R D ¨ 8 / 1 2 - 2 4 S T R A N D S CO N S T R U C T I O N D I A M O N D T Y P E NIKACORD® Ropes are a “MELT MIXTURE” of first quality European virgin raw materials Polypropylene (75%), Polyethylene (20%) and UV stabilizer and other improving elements (5%), bright white colour with red-green stripes. They are made of round filaments (MONOFILAMENT type) which are produced with the laborious double twisting process “ROPE IN ROPE” type for maximum abrasion resistance, with high tenacity yarns, almost like Nylon’s. This unique rope construction with the double twisted yarns, that have the same electronically controlled thickness, weight and strength throughout the whole cross section of the strand/rope, gives the well known amazing operational results, like shock and dynamic load absorption, minimization of external and internal abrasion and extended useful (thus reliable) service life. The above, in combination with the high quality added UV stabilisation protection of 160 KLY (suitable for Florida, USA & Dubai, UAE sunshine) make NIKACORD® ropes the most reliable ones in the market. APPLICATIONS: MOORING – ANCHORING – TOWING Specific gravity: 0,92 (FLOATING) Melting point: 1650 C Elongation at breaking: 15% Chemical resistance to ACID: Excellent. Strength lose in H2SO4 in high concentration and temperature Chemical resistance to ALKALI: Very Good. Strength lose NaOH in high concentration and temperature Chemical resistance to ORGANIC SOLVENT: Excellent. Nika-Cord® incorporates the following technologically advanced features: • Double twisted yarns through its whole cross section for extra wear resistance and consequently extended life. • Uniform load distribution though its whole cross section. • Filament tensile strength exceeding DIN,EN,ISO and BS specifications. • High quality U.V protection for longer use in almost any weather condition, even in Florida & Dubai intense sunshine. • Uniform thickness for a flexible,strong and friendly use. • Eliminates residual twisting moments (rotation resistant – non rotating) Nika-Cord is the unique monofilament rope in terms of strength,abrasion resistance, shock absorption and longer lifetime. Μelt mixture of Nikacord makes it approved even by OCIMF for the safe mooring of the tankers (as per paragraph: 6.3.1.4 of the Mooring Equipment Guidelines book 3rd Edition of OCIMF – Mixed Polyolefin ropes)

Ta n k e r M o o r i n g A NEW GENERATION OF MOORING ROPES FOR THE SAFETY OF TANKERS AND THE PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT Katradis group, highly concerned about environmental safety, has implemented the latest procedures & techniques in the manufacturing of high quality ropes that raise the safety standards in the sensitive area of the oil sea transportation. Following the new developments & rules of the international standard settings organizations, our production of ropes for the tanker vessels is strictly according to OCIMF regulations & recommendations, Cordage Institute standards & Intertanko. Additionally, our ropes can be produced to suit specific applications and special conditions in order to satisfy our clients’ unique requirements.

DOUBLE BRAIDED ROPES Double Braided ropes are produced by braiding a 32 or 64-strand sheath (cover) over a braided 24-strand core rope. Advantages of Double Braided ropes: Significantly Longer Service Life The external cover protects the inner core from sunlight and abrasion Excellent rotation resistance Larger contact area due to the round shape of the rope Reduced fatigue when bent over sheaves, chocks, bitts Smaller sheave radius required Excellent cyclic load and abrasion resistance Higher breaking load Many fiber combinations are possible (cover/core) depending on the application Produced according to International Standards

• • • • • • • • • •

SPECTRA¨ - ULTRA HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT POLYETHYLENE ROPES (UHMWPE) • 10 times stronger than steel • 3 times stronger than Polyester of equal weight • Small in volume and thus suitable for easy storage and rapid deployment in emergency cases. • Low stretch / Low elongation • Float in water • Meet all the requirements and comply with all the regulations of OCIMF.

Steel wire ropes

QUALITY & RELIABILITY Since the foundation of the Katradis Group, ropes have been our mainline product. With more than a 70 years experience in the ropes industry, the Katradis name has become synonymous to excellent quality ropes, supplied to the marine world by an efficient network of worldwide agents and distributors. We offer a wide range of Rope Constructions & Custom Made Slings, covering the most common type of needs to the most specialized ones, destined for Shipping, Fishing and Industrial purposes. All ropes supplied by Katradis are very well preformed during all the stages of production, and free from internal stresses. PREFORMED WIRE ROPES LAST LONGER because they have: • Greater resistance to fatigue • Better distribution of the load among strands • Greater flexibility • Less tendency to kink. • Greater safety in handling because the wires that break after long wear do not protrude neither damage adjacent wires. Majority of our wire ropes are grade 1770N/mm2 & 1960 Ν/mm2. For special applications, grade 2060 or 2160 can be supplied. HOW TO ORDER A WIRE ROPE In ordering a wire rope be sure to give complete information. The following would be a typical order: 200mtrs. 24mm, 6 X 36 FC 1770 or 1960 N/mm2 or other, RHOL, galvanised or ungalvanised, plain ends (or eye spliced, or socketed or other). Length: State the exact length desired. In ordering end fittings such as thimbles, links or hooks spliced in, give exact length from bearing to bearing or end rope, or submit a sketch with dimensions. Diameter: The true diameter of a wire rope is the diameter of a circle which will enclose it. In using the caliper to determine the diameter , be careful to avoid measuring across the adjacent strands (page 6). Construction: Advise whether 6 X 19, 6 X 25F, 4 X 39, 8 X 19, or other. Lay: State definitely whether Regular (right hand or left hand), or Lang Lay (right hand or left hand) is required; if it is uncertain , consult our sales department. Standard practice is to furnish Right Hand Regular (ordinary) Lay, but if Left Hand Regular (ordinary) Lay is required for cable tool drilling or some other purpose, be sure to state. Core: Indicate whether Fiber Core (FC) or Independent Wire Rope Core is desired. Tensile strength: 1770 or 1960 N/mm2 or other. Finish: Galvanised or ungalvanised or stainless steel. End termination: Plain or eye spliced or socketed or other.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF WIRE ROPES > MEASUREMENT The right way to measure the diameter of a rope is to obtain the diameter of the circumscribed circle.

Correct Measurement

> INSTALLATION PROCEDURE OF NON-ROTATING WIRE ROPE IN THE CRANE The trouble-free and long service life of every wire rope, especially of the multi-stranded, non-rotating wire ropes, depends 100% on their proper installation in the crane. By proper installation we mean kink & torsion-free installation. The following steps must be carefully taken: • We should lay the new wire rope on the deck for the kinks - if any - to be removed before connecting it to the old wire rope. • The installation of the new rope and removal of the old one from the crane winch / drum must take place in one continuous operation making absolutely sure that no accumulated stresses/torsions are transferred to the new wire rope. • From this point onward, special attention must be given to the coupling of the socket / thimble fitted onto the wire rope to the crane itself. In no case, should loose wire ropes be left lying about on the deck, when the socket / thimble is to be attached, otherwise kinks will form and after a short period of operation in the crane, ropes will swell and eventually be destroyed. Therefore, make always sure that the socket / thimble end, before it’s firmly attached to the crane, is left to hang loose, so that all kinks are removed from the rope and no other are created.

3 What follows the proper installation and it’s of the same importance is the so-called ‘running in’ period, during which some windings and unwindings must be effected, initially with the 1/4 of the maximum working load. The same is repeated without load. In case we find, that after the inspection, the cargo block tends to turn, that means that kinks had been formed during the installation. In such case, the socket / thimble must be detached, thus allow the kinks to be relieved. This procedure must be repeated until the wire rope is fully run in and adjusted to the operating conditions. In conclusion, the proper installation, lubrication & inspection, and running-in period guarantee a long service life and trouble-free operation.

Sacrificial Anodes

Sacrificial Anodes > Principle of cathodic protection Corrosion is the spontaneous chemical reaction of a metal against its surroundings. Particularly, in sea water this chemical reaction proceeds by an electrochemical mechanism involving oxidation of the metal. This results in metal loss. When we have a plate, which is pitting appearance, at the spots where the coating wasn’t good enough to protect it. The part of the metal surface in the electrochemical mechanism (electron release) is called anodic. On the other part of the metal surface where the electron consumption takes place is called cathodic. If we can supply electrons from an external source, then the electron consumption (cathodic) will speed up and the electron release (anodic) reaction will slow down. As a consequence, the rate of iron dissolution will slow down and the electrode potential will decrease. From the procedure above, the Principle of cathodic protection can be derived: ‘By supplying electrons into the metal from an external source, we slow down its dissolution, i.e. it’s rusting away’.

> Applications of anodic protection The delivery of the electrons to the metal surface to be protected can be achieved in two ways. Firstly, by using an impressed current technique and secondly by using sacrificial anodes.

> The impressed current method By this method the electrical current is delivered to the metal surface from a D.C. power source through an auxiliary anode i.e. the current is forced in or impressed.

Typical galvanic anode for cathodic protection of a ship’s hull (anodes alongside the hull are normally mounted alternately on both sides of dilge keels The metal surface will act as a cathode in the shell that formed.

> The sacrificial anode method By this method a galvanic cell is formed between the structure to be protected and the sacrificial anode. The electrons pass spontaneously from the anode to the metal surface (cathode). Thus, the source of the electrons (the sacrificial anodes) must have a more negative electrode potential than the metal surface. Metals and conducting materials commonly used are listed below in such order that each normally act as anode with respect to all the materials which follow it.

MAGNESIUM, ZINC, ALUMINUM IRON AND STEEL, LEAD, BRASS, COPPER, GRAPHITE, COKE E.T.A. This explains why magnesium, aluminum and zinc alloys are used to protect steel today.

ABS Product Design Assessment Certificate (PDA)

5 CALCULATIONS > EXTERNAL PROTECTION

The number of anodes for the protection of the hull is calculated based on the following criteria:

A. CURRENT REQUIREMENTS

The wetted surface of the hull times protective current density.

Protected area (m2) x current density (mA/m2) Current (Amp) = _______________________________ 1000 A. SYSTEM DESIGN FILE

The total weight of anode material required is:

Current (Amps) x design life (years) x 8766 Weight (kg) = _______________________________ Capacity of material (Amph/kg) x 0,9 As a result the number of anodes selected must at least satisfy both the total current and total weight requirements as follows:

CURRENT REQUIRED NUMBER OF ANODES = __________________________ INDIVIDUAL CURRENT OUTPUT WEIGHT REQUIRED NUMBER OF ANODES = __________________________ INDIVIDUAL NET ANODE WEIGHT > ANODE LOCATION

The calculated anodes must be installed in equal distances around the hull, about 6 meters apart. The 15% - 20% of the total calculated QTY must be installed to the stern and rudder area of the vessel. The anodes should not be mounted in the zone close to the propeller’s edges.

> INTERNAL CATHODIC PROTECTION

The cathodic protection of the ship’s tanks is effected with sacrificial anode system. Of course, this type of protection can be applied only to water ballast or cargo/ballast tanks. Zinc aluminum or magnesium anodes may be used but for the installation precautions must be taken for avoiding hydrogen evolution (in the case of magnesium) and sparking (in the case of aluminum). The final selection of the alloy to be used will also depend on the ballast water (seawater), the compatibility of the alloy with any cargo, which might be carried in the tank, the size of the protected tank and the type of the vessel.

Sacrificial Anodes > CURRENT DENSITY REQUIRED FOR PROTECTION

In case, the tank surface is being painted, the anodes will be installed to suppress corrosion on any area with paint defects. The current density of 5mAmp/m2 is normally adequate. In case, of non-coated surface the following current densities are recommended: FORE AND AFT PEAK TANK TOP SIDE TANKS DOUBLE BOTTOM TANKS CARGO/CLEAN BALLAST TANK LOWER WING TANKS

108mAp/m2 120mAp/m2 86mAp/m2 86mAp/m2 90mAp/m2

The system life should be at least four (4) years. The above-recommended current densities are applicable to ships for which the normal ballast trip is longer than approx. 5 days. In case, the trip is shorter than 5 days, then the above densities should be increased by 20%.

Production Facilities

113

Production Facilities Since the foundation of the Katradis Group, Ropes have been our mainline product. Our rope factory, based on a total area of 30.000m2 is one of the most technologically advanced factories in Europe. All our efforts are concentrated on the selection of the most appropriate raw material. Quality control is performed during all stages of production, culminating in rigorous testing of the ropes’ real strength. Technological evolution in machinery production has made it possible to move from natural fibers (such as Manila) to the highly sophisticated Polyamide (known as Nylon), Polyester, Polypropylene Paraaramide (such as Kevlar), Sirius UHMWPE, glass fibers etc. The industrial yarn extrusion and the techniques applied have made it possible to control quality in every stage of the production procedure until the rope is coiled and ready to be shipped. Our company has entered the yarn extrusion since its establishment and from then on, the quality control has been extensive and inseparable from the production procedures. Careful raw material selection to suit the intended applications and exhaustive mechanical tests are applied to the ropes before they leave our factory in order to ensure the top performance guaranteed by our company. All our ropes are tested in our 2452 KN Automatic Testing Machine, approved by LRS and recognized by the major classification societies. The sun test machine checks the yarns’ behavior in the condition of artificial aging and the necessary amount of U.V. protection additives for long-term exposure to sunlight. With the computer controlled tensile testing machines, we carry out the tensile breaking strength of yarns according to DIN, ISO, and ASTM standards. Our company has secured a competitive role in the provision of a large assortment of zinc and aluminum anodes, all of which are made in our highly specialized factory. • Hull anodes • Tank anodes • Pit guard anodes (Zinc and Aluminum) We manufacture steel wire ropes in a 70000m2 site with 3 production halls with a capacity of up to 80 mm diameter wire ropes and 30 tons final reel with a capacity of 15000 tons/year, thereby successfully serving the local and international market. The main constructions produced are: 6x7, 6x12, 6x19, 6x24, 6x25, 6x36, 6x37, 6x41, 6x47, 6x61, 19x7, 19x19, 36x7, 4x36 We hold GL & IQNET 9001 and GL 118, LR, ABS, API 9a approvals for the production of our wire ropes.
