About Bollards on Battleships

Bollards are essential deck fittings used for securing mooring lines when ships are docked. On battleships, these heavy-duty fittings were strategically placed along the deck edges to handle the massive forces involved in securing these enormous vessels. The larger "big battleship" bollards were designed to withstand the tremendous strain of mooring ships displacing tens of thousands of tons.

Modeling Applications

These bollards are ideal for:

• WWI-era German battleships (SMS Bayern, SMS König, SMS Markgraf)
• WWII-era German capital ships
• Dreadnought and super-dreadnought battleships
• Any 1/700 scale battleship requiring authentic deck fittings
