Ahoy, my nautical friends. Still working on this labour risks prevention protocol for fishing ships. Here's another one I can't find anywhere.
Context:
Las pastecas de los lanteones, aparejos reales y tiras, han de colocarse sobre grilletes rectos o de campana, pero siempre con la suficiente holgura como para que las pastecas trabajen con toda libertad en las distintas direcciones para la que está destinada, nunca deben trabajar forzadas.
or
Objeto:
Evitar la caída de pesos por desprendimiento o rotura de cáncamos, grilletes, pastecas, lanteones y tiras; cuando se levantan, trasladan o arrastran los pesos.
I found everything else (not easy!) but I'm stuck on "tiras". Thanks in advance!

Low confidence because I haven't heard the terms before in either language in this context, but I have an extensive maritime dictionary with the following entries:
tira - fall, tape
tira de aparejo - fall, tackle hauling part.
tira de pescante de bote - boat davit fall
(Diccionario Técnico Marítimo - Luis Suárez Gil)
And Merriam-Webster has this entry:
"boat fall noun
Definition of boat fall
: a tackle used to hoist or lower a ship's boat from or to the davits —usually used in plural"

tira - fall, tape
tira de aparejo - fall, tackle hauling part.
tira de pescante de bote - boat davit fall
