REIDAR'S MANUFACTURING INC got its name from where it started in a small garage shop making hardware for boats and vendors,we branched out into trawlmaking in 1991. Among Reidar's original invention and product was the "Latching Safety Hook" used on nearly all scallop vessels today. U.S. Patent No: 4,813,170 was issued to Reidar for the invention of the "Sweepline Roller Stopper", a chain stopper made to use on roller and rockhopper gear to stop lateral movement along the sweep. This invention sent other gear shops scurrying to come up with other types of stoppers but the invention of the roller stopper changed the way we make roller gear forever. Reidar also invented the "Bolshline Hanging Spacer" in 1986 paving the way for the copy called "Snowmen".
