Marine Ship Inflatable Pneumatic Rubber Fender For Dock Berthing

Marine Ship Inflatable Pneumatic Rubber Fender For Dock Berthing

Description of inflatable pneumatic rubber fender

Florescence pneumatic rubber fender for ship has the advantages of high energy absorption and reaction force, low cost, long service life, simple installation and maintenance, etc. It is usually used in ship to ship, ship to wharf for barge and docking, which is a new generation product of fender of ships and is popular in the world.

Due to its self-floating characteristics, this floating pneumatic rubber fender for ship to ship operation is also particularly suitable for installation in docks where the tide level varies greatly. Among them, the filled rubber fender is especially suitable for applications in harsh environments, such as offshore drilling platforms, due to its advantages of maintenance-free and long service life.

Pneumatic fenders are constructed of three vulcanized layers each providing an important function in the construction and lifespan of the fender. The three layers are (1) the inner rubber layer (2) the cord layers of reinforcement and (3) the outer rubber layer.

The outer rubber layer has a special compound that provides extra tensile and tear strength to protect the fender from harsh weather conditions and heavy usage whilst the inner rubber layer is specifically designed to seal the air inside and to prevent any leakage much like the inner tube of a tire. The reinforcement layer has cross hatched synthetic tire cord designed to evenly distribute the stress.

The dimensions of the pneumatic floating rubber fenders are:

- The diameters vary from 0.3 up to 4.5 meters.

- The lengths vary from 0.6 up to 9.0 meters.

Use attention of dock pneumatic rubber fender

*Frequently check whether the fender body is damaged and whether the pressure is normal,and the valve core must be replaced every six moths

*The steel wire should wrap the rubber pipe,when trying steel wire to pneumatic rubber fender in case the fender is stabbed
