Marine Ship Bumpers Floating Pneumatic Rubber Fender

Marine Ship Bumpers Floating Docking Rubber Fender For Ship Berthing And Mooring

Floating Docking Rubber Fender

Floating docking rubber 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 floating docking rubber 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.

Floating docking rubber fenders are divided into three types, including sling type, hydro-pneumatic type, and chain and tire net type. Each type plays a critical role in protecting the safety of marine operations.

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

Floating Docking Rubber Fender Structure

① Outer rubber layer

Floating docking rubber 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.
