Innovative engineering

Feritech offers a comprehensive range of geotechnical equipment. All our products are designed, manufactured and tested by our team in the UK to the highest standards. Many of our products are available immediately from stock, including unparalleled access to spares and consumables.

FT563 Hamon grab specification

Manufactured from marine grade 316 stainless steel, its robust build and high quality parts are everything that you would expect from a Feritech product.

Additional stabilising lead ballast weights (25kg each) can be configured by the user as required during operations.

Including an arming pin and lever arm guard provides safety to users during operation and protection in transit.

During deployment the seabed sediment sample is pushed into the sampling bucket as it rotates through 90 degrees from horizontal to vertical. Sediment is sealed by a rubber sealed plate for safe return during recovery to the surface.

Independent lifting points on top of the Hamon grab, low friction pulleys and handles on each side ease handling.

Interchangeable buckets (available in two sizes) allow sampling operations to continue while analysis is underway.

Designed to be shipped on a pallet the Hamon grab can also be supplied in a specially designed ISPM 15 certified wooden shipping crate for transportation globally.
