Bolt 🔩

A bolt is a term used for a threaded fastener designed to be used in conjunction with a screw.
A screw is a term used for a threaded fastener designed to mate with a pre-formed internal thread or forming its own thread.

Three main parts of bolt:

  1. Head
  2. Shank
  3. Thread
The size of a bolt is a combination of the thread diameter and the length. The length is normally taken from the underside of the head to the end of the thread.

For example, a bolt designated as M12 x 100 indicates that the bolt is a metric thread of 12mm diameter and of 100 mm length.

A full designation of the bolt usually includes the head type and the standard that the bolt is made to. For example, Hexagon head bolt DIN 6914 -M12 x 100 indicates that a standard hexagon head form is to be used, DIN 6914 refers to the standard that the bolt is to be made to (the German standard on high strength hexagon head bolts) and M12 x 100 indicates that the bolt is a metric thread of 12
mm diameter and of 100 mm length.

Bilge Injection Valve

Bilge Injection is a valve that enables the engine room bilges to be pumped out directly overboard in the event of an emergency such as flooding. The valve is normally fitted to the end of a branch connection with the main sea water suction line. This enables large main seawater cooling pumps to be used as a bilge pump in an emergency. Emergencies like fire and flooding involve the use of seawater. If there is a fire, seawater is the biggest resource of water available in the sea. Similarly, if it involves flooding of the engine room, cargo spaces or any other place on the ship for that matter; you would again require pumping the sea water out of the ship. In both these cases, you require pumps.  There are two valves in close proximity namely main injection valve and bilge injection valve. Both of them have their own independent controls. The diameter of the bilge injection valve is kept nearly 66% of the main valve diameter which draws water directly from the sea th...

Load Line & Why it is Important

Merchant ships have a marking on their hull know as the Plimsoll line or the Plimsoll mark, which indicates the limit until which ships can be loaded with enough cargo, internationally, the Plimsoll line on a ship is officially referred to as the international load line. Every type of ship has a different level of floating and the Plimsoll line on a ship generally varies from one vessel to another.  All vessels of 24 meters and more are required to have this Load line marking at the centre position of the length of summer load water line. There are two types of Load line markings:- Standard Load Line marking – This is applicable to all types of vessels. Timber Load Line Markings – This is applicable to vessels carrying timber cargo. These marks shall be punched on the surface of the hull making it visible even if the ship side paint fades out. The marks shall again be painted with white or yellow colour on a dark background/black on a light background.  ...
