This European Standard specifies main dimensions, construction and requirements for rope tubs. Rope tubs are used on inland vessels to shoot up steel wire ropes, chemical fibre ropes or natural fibre ropes which are needed for example for tying and hauling. The use of rope tubs prevents the risk for the crew during manoeuvres to get into tightening slings or to stumble over ropes l laid down on deck.
