Pneumatic marine ship rubber fender application

Floating pneumatic marine ship rubber fender could be used as a protective medium for ship-to-ship operation(STS), ship-to-quay(STQ) and ship-to-berthing(STB). And suit for various vessels, like:

1. Tankers, Gas Carriers and Bulk Cargo Ships;

2. Fast ferries and aluminum hulled vessels;

3. Temporary of permanent installations;

4. Rapid response and emergency fendering;

5. As stand-off fenders to realign ships with shore facilities.

How to install floating marine ship rubber fender?

Fix the lifting rope to the swivels on the fender’s chain lugs

Lift the fender well clear of the ground and any projections.

Lowering the fender into position

Connect the chains to the fender’s chain lugs.

Lower the fender to the water.

Fix the chains to the anchors on the quay wall.

floating pneumatic ship rubber fender structure

Floating marine ship rubber fender is made of synthetic-cord-reinforced rubber sheet with compressed air inside to enable it to float on the water and work as a shock absorber between two ships, or between ships and berthing structures when they come alongside each other on the water.

The fender body is constructed of an inner rubber layer, reinforced cord layers and an outer rubber layer. All of these layers are vulcanized together.

The outer skin rubber compound is designed and manufactured to be able to withstand both strenuous use including abrasion during adverse weather conditions whilst protecting the cord layers and inner rubber.

The synthetic tyre cord layers are arranged and designed to distribute load and stress evenly, which maintains the internal air pressure of the fender.

The inner rubber compound is designed to be completely airtight, utilising a compound equivalent tothat an inner tube of a car tyre.
