MODEL 70-39

The Ultimate Barrier for Logistics and Deck Preservation.

The Model 70-39 is a ruggedized external cover designed for the "Cloverleaf" lashing pots found on vehicle and working decks . It provides a full-surface seal that overlaps the fitting frame and deck-to-fitting weld to protect critical infrastructure from high-impact logistics and corrosive shipyard environments .

Operational Application

  • Preservation Shield: Specifically engineered for NAVSEA 009-26 preservation cycles to block sandblasting grit, needle-gun debris, and epoxy slurries from damaging the lashing socket.

  • Operational Readiness: Prevents the ingress of mud, silt, and saltwater, ensuring that vehicle lashing bars remain clear and functional for immediate cargo securing.

  • High-Visibility Safety: The molded high-vis color eliminates trip hazards and prevents "Foul Deck" conditions for both personnel and rolling stock.

Technical Specifications

  • Governing Drawing: Specifically manufactured to conform with NAVSEA DWG S2700-1, 213, 717.

  • Interface: Designed as a comprehensive external cover for Cloverleaf vehicle and cargo lashing pots .

  • Material: Pressure-molded technical polymer; non-porous and impervious to JP-5 and hydraulic fluid.

  • Safety Compliance: Prevents grit and debris ingress during NAVSEA 009-26 preservation procedures.

Fleet Compatibility

Designed for hulls requiring heavy-duty lashing and vehicle transport infrastructure.

US Coast Guard Cutters

  • Seagoing Buoy Tenders (WLB): Juniper-class (201-216).

  • Fast Response Cutters (WPC): Sentinel-class standardized lashing hardware.

US Navy Surface Fleet

  • Amphibious Assault (LHA/LHD): Full vehicle and flight deck outfitting.

  • Dock Landing Ships (LSD): Whidbey Island and Harpers Ferry classes.

  • Dry Cargo/Ammunition Ships (T-AKE): Lewis and Clark-class cargo handling decks.

Chief’s Note: When the yard starts sandblasting or the seas start coming over the rail, those Cloverleaf pots turn into buckets for grit and saltwater. The 70-39 overlaps the whole frame to keep your weld-lines protected and your lashing bars ready to work. Don't let a seized lashing pot slow down your cargo load-out.
