BIBUS in practice: block hinges in the maritime sector

The Netherlands and the maritime industry are inextricably linked. Our country is internationally renowned in the field of ship design and manufacturing. BIBUS regularly collaborates with innovative Dutch companies from this sector. An example of the combination of the application of high-quality mechanical components and stylish innovative ships can be seen in this practical application.

LEKKER Boats

From the Netherlands, LEKKER Boats designs and produces comfortable and stylish seaworthy boats. These ships can reach up to 50 knots and are available in different models: the Damsko 750 and the Damsko 1000. The boats are handmade and can be set up completely according to customer requirements. For example, you can opt for extra beds and a toilet extension in the cabin.

The video below shows the great diversity of possibilities that the Damskos offer.

Both LEKKER Boats and BIBUS value quality and customer-specific solutions greatly. For LEKKER Boats customers this means that they can adapt the ships to their liking. On the other hand, BIBUS supplies high-quality and customer-specific components. The result of this partnership can be seen in the photo below.

The console of the boat is equipped with a cover. Under this cover is a container that the end user can fill as desired. The black block hinges that make this movement possible are from the BIBUS range. The hinges are used in both the Damsko 750 and the Damsko 1000. In this year, LEKKER Boats will manufacture 50 Damskos in which these hinges are used.

This block hinge is made of Zamak and has a stainless steel pin. The block hinges are supplied in black as standard, but the block hinges are available in a customer-specific RAL color on request and for specific purchases.
