Easy Installation Yokohama Pneumatic Fenders Inflatable For Ship Docking

easy installation inflatable fender rubber dock fender for ship docking

Pneumatic rubber fenders have a long and successful history of protecting vessels in mooring operations. They are ideal for permanent and semi-permanent port applications and for offshore ship-to-ship transfers. Tough and resilient, rubber dock fenders are fast and easy to deploy, maintaining large clearances between the hull and the jetty or other vessel.

This serves to minimise damage potential during mooring. Critical properties of rubber fenders are energy absorption, hull pressure and reaction force. In both cases, Xincheng Marine Systems products score very highly, with low reaction force and low hull pressure.This means the fender absorbs significant energy, reducing the forces on both the vessel hull and jetty structures.

Construction of pneumatic fender
Pneumatic Fenders are constructed of three vulcanized layers each providing an important function in the construction and lifespan of the fender. The three layers are

(1) the inner rubber layer

The inner rubber seals pressurised air inside the fender. It is usually constructed of a compound similar to that of an inner tube in a truck or car tyre to ensure a good level of air tightness.

(2) the tyre-cord layers of reinforcement

Synthetic tyre-cord layers have proven to be the best option for strong, efficient reinforcement for pneumatic rubber fenders. Each layer is coated with a rubber compound on both sides that prevents contact between the layers, reducing friction and wear during bending, compression and stretching. The same compound isolates each thread within the layer.This greatly improves the ability of the fender to hold pressure, fatigue resistance and endurance life. Other reinforcing layer materials such as canvas have wear points that significantly reduce the life off the fender.

(3) the outer rubber layer.

The tough abrasion resistant outer rubber is designed to protect the inner rubber and tyre-cord layers from damaging external forces. The material has mechanical properties to withstand the arduous operational conditions for which it is designed.
