Product Description

Another top-selling product is our pneumatic rubber fender, a leading anti-collision device for marine application in the world today. This compressed air fender is used as a protective medium. Therefore, it serves as a protective medium against collision when ship-to-ship contact (STS) and ship-to-berthing (STB). It has the advantages of massive energy absorption with low unit surface pressure acted upon the ship. It has become an ideal ship protection medium used extensively by large tankers, LPG vessels, ocean platforms, large docks, harbour and wharfs.

Fenders are used to prevent damage to boats, vessels and berthing structures. Fenders are nowadays constructed in several ways, typically of rubber, foam elastomer or plastic. Rubber fenders are either extruded or made in a mould. Which type of fender is most suitable for an application depends on a lot of variables, including dimensions and displacement of the vessel, maximum allowable stand-off, berthing structure, tidal variations and other berth specific conditions.
