Docking Bumper Yokohama Pneumatic Fender Marine Rubber Fenders For Ship Mooring

Yokohama Pneumatic Fender

Yokohama pneumatic fender, also called Yokohama fender, has been used in port, harbor, and maritime operations for decades since it was developed in 1958. With the development of ship technology, this Yokohama pneumatic fender is used extensively in ship-to-ship transfer operations and ship mooring and berthing operations. It’s always regarded as a buffer to reduce shock in between due to its excellent performance of great elasticity and abrasion-resistance.

Fully compliant with the ISO17357 standard, Jerryborg’s Yokohama pneumatic fender supplies with a variety of specifications and dimensions to meet customer’s requests and different application conditions. 

Yokohama Pneumatic Fender Classification

Yokohama Pneumatic Fender Structure

① Outer rubber layer

Yokohama pneumatic fenders are covered by the outer layer made of natural rubber. This rubber compound is strong enough to protect the inner layer and synthetic-cord layer from the damage of external forces and severe weather conditions due to its high elasticity and abrasion resistance.

② Synthetic-tire-cord layer

The Synthetic-tire-cord layer is made of synthetic-tire-cord fabrics, compared with synthetic canvas fabric and synthetic belt fabric, this reinforcement layer performs better in fatigue-resistance and pressure-holding.

③ Inner rubber layer

The inner layer is designed to seal the air inside the fender.
