We provides a wide range of rubber fenders which are cost effective
and efficient solutions to suit any operating environment,
condition and requirement. Solid rubber fenders have been used for
ages since they are readily available and are considered long
lasting.
Rubber fenders come in different forms including, pneumatic type,
Cone rubber fender, Supper Cell rubber fender, ‘Wing’ DO Rubber
fenders, Foamed filled fenders, Arch type rubber fender and many
others. All these types of rubber fender are unique in their own
way and come with different specifications and uses.
How To Choose The Right Fender For Your Application
There are many service factors which must be taken into
consideration when making a decision on which type and size of
fender is best suited for a given application, type of pier
structure, type and size of vessel, berthing velocity of vessel,
method of berthing, sea currents and wave action. Please check our
catalog for the details of some of the most common types of marine
fenders.
The ISO 17357 :2014 compliant chain-tire net pneumatic fender (CTN)
is a lattice of used tyres connected by a network of horizontal and
vertical chains, which adds further protection to the fender body.
The chains are galvanized for greater corrosion resistance and
covered by rubber sleeves to prevent abrasive damage to the outer
rubber. The horizontal chains are fastened at each end to a ring
shackle.
Aging and fatigue often cause fenders to deteriorate in terms of performance. However, due to its air filled body and highly elastic material, such issues are minimised. Solid rubber fenders or foam fenders depend more on the hardness of the material and such dependance may result in decrease in energy absorption performance after years of usage and temperature change. On the other hand, as long as basic maintenance and air pressure control is maintained, pneumatic fenders remain optimum performance even at extremely low temperature down to -50 Degree Celsius or even during high fluctuations.
Pneumatic fenders are primarily floating-types, which means the fenders float on the water in an unrestricted vertical plane corresponding to the tidal range and ship’s vertical movement. Therefore, fender energy absorption always take place at the most optimum position.
