Aluminum Shore Gangway with Anti-Slip Steps | Marine Gangway ISO 7061 Type B

Product Specification

Aluminum Shore Gangway with Anti-Slip Steps | Marine Gangway ISO 7061 Type B

Product Overview

The ISO 7061 Type B aluminum shore gangway with anti-slip arc steps is lightweight marine access equipment designed to provide safe access from ship to shore, primarily for ship crew use. It can also be used for ship-to-ship access when operating conditions are suitable.

The Type B configuration uses anti-slip arc steps directly integrated with the side stringers to support personnel movement when the gangway is inclined. The supplied data allows inclination up to 55°, with one-section or two-section configurations available according to vessel arrangement and handling requirements.

Public ISO information confirms that ISO 7061 specifies requirements for aluminium shore gangways carried on ships for ship-to-shore access, and ISO preview material identifies Type B as an anti-slip arc steps gangway. The latest ISO edition should be confirmed for new projects.

Main Technical Parameters

Selection & Inquiry Guide

Step 1: Confirm ISO 7061 Type B gangway length, one-section or two-section configuration, and vessel storage arrangement.

Step 2: Confirm installation angle, upper securing device, lower support, landing condition, and access route.

Step 3: Confirm aluminum alloy grade, welding requirement, anodic oxidation treatment, and corrosion protection requirement.

Step 4: Confirm handrail, intermediate guide, stanchion spacing, step spacing, guard board, and anti-slip surface details.

Step 5: Confirm approval scope including MED, EC type approval, class inspection, or project-specific certificates.

Step 6: Provide vessel type, quantity, delivery destination, required delivery date, GA drawing, and reference photos.

Design, Safety & Engineering Advantages

• Anti-slip arc steps improve foot grip when the gangway is installed at inclined angles.
• Aluminum construction provides a lightweight solution for shipboard access while maintaining required structural performance.
• Handrails and intermediate guides support safe personnel movement and should follow the approved design arrangement.
• The gangway is intended for personnel access and is not designed for wheeled traffic such as loaded trolleys.
• Dissimilar metal contact should be controlled to reduce galvanic corrosion risk in marine service.
• Structural flatness, torsion resistance, step spacing, and securing arrangements should be checked according to the applicable standard.

Custom Attributes

• Standard: ISO 7061 → aluminum shore gangway requirements for seagoing vessels.
• Type: Type B → anti-slip arc steps configuration.
• Length: Customized → selected according to vessel arrangement and storage space.
• Width: 600 mm → supplied net width.
• Step: Anti-slip arc steps → direct anti-slip surface supporting side stringers.
• Handrail: Minimum 1000 mm height → safety access requirement.
• Surface Treatment: Anodic oxidation → marine corrosion protection system.
• Approval Requirement: MED, EC type approval, class certificate or inspection according to project scope.

How It Works

Gangway is positioned between ship and shore → Securing devices fix the upper and lower ends → Anti-slip arc steps support personnel movement → Handrails provide protection → Side stringers and cross members transfer personnel load

Applications

Passenger ships | Cargo vessels | Tankers | Gas carriers | Commercial vessels | Ship-to-shore access | Ship-to-ship access when conditions are favourable

Certifications & Advantages

Certificates and approvals can be arranged according to project requirement, inspection scope, and applicable authority procedure.

Certification: EU MED, EC type approval, CCS, NK, BV, ABS, DNV, LR, KR, IRS, RS, RINA, Makers Test Certificate.

FAQ

Q1: Is Type B suitable for 55° inclination?

A1: The supplied data states a maximum inclination of 55°. Actual onboard use depends on securing arrangement, landing condition, vessel movement, and approved installation procedure.

Q2: Can this gangway carry carts or wheeled traffic?

A2: No. ISO 7061 scope is for personnel access and not intended for loaded trolley traffic.

Q3: What information is needed before quotation?

A3: Confirm length, section arrangement, storage position, securing method, approval scope, vessel type, delivery destination, and required delivery date.
