Rubber fender with tyre and anchor chain

Advantages of rubber fender:

1) Safe for excess load

The reaction force of a floating pneumatic fender does not increase sharply even under excess load. Therefore, these fenders perform extremely well under such condition and as a result, protect ships and mooring facilities.

 

2) No deter ration or variation in performance

Because pneumatic fenders utilise the compressive elasticity of air , performance deteriation due to fatigue is completely absent . the performance of these fenders remain unchanged at  extremely low temperatures , even below - 50'C  .

 

3) Safety reliability

pneumatic rubber fender are constructed using several layers of strong tyre cord are therefore extremely resistant to pressure and cutting , and are therefore extremely resistant to pressure and cutting. The larger size ( 2.5m dia upward )  are  fitted with safety valve to prevent accident in the event of over compression .

 

4) Construction

The fender body is constructed of an inner rubber layer, reinforcing cord layers and an outer rubber layer . All three layers are bonded together by a combination of heat and pressure over a period of time in a vulcanising oven. Once completed, the fenders are pressure tested before release.

 

To provide maximum strength and safety, the out skin of submarine fender is thicker than a normal surface fender.

 

The outer skin rubber compound is designed and manufactured to be able to withstand both strenuous use and adverse weather conditions whilst protecting the cord layers and inner rubber the cord layers are corranged at optimum angles designed to be completely airtight .

 

5) Simple and low cost installation

The weight of the fenders is supported by the water on which it floats,  therefore , the fender can be morred simply by means of a guy rope or chain at minimal cost it can be removed easily to another quay or jetty when not use or transfered to alternative mooring points as required

 

6) Chain and tyre net

Almost floating fenders are protected by a chain and tyre net, the purpose of the chain and tyre net is to protect the fender body from damage by sharp objects or protrusions such as rough faced quay walls, to distribute sheer forces along the length of the chain net and to prevent the fender body from having to absorb them .

 

Applications of marine rubber fender:

1.It is installed in the dock or port, it is used when ships berth.

 

2.It is installed on shipboard, it is used when berthing in the sea.

3.Other applications of charged rubber dependable ball:

a,Can be used as a buoy;

b,Can be used for carrying goods;

c,Can be used as sealing material of pipes.

 

Rubber Fender

rubber fender is a modern device used widely to ships, boats, tankers, ocean platforms, large Docks, harbor wharfs and so on. It is a new marine protective facility. The material of rubber fender is imported pure natural rubber and high-strength cord gray, which have high resistance, high anti-abrasion. After lots of experiments, we finally choose the special high-quality outer rubber to ensure the anti-collision anti-abrasion and anti-radiation capacity.
