Pintles
| Глоссарий морской лексики и терминологии (английский язык) |
The rudder is hung on to a ship by pintles and braces. the braces are secured firmly to the stern-post by jaws, which spread and are bolted on each side. the pintles are hooks which enter the braces, and the rudder is then wood-locked; a dumb pintle on the heel finally takes the strain off the hinging portions.
