2.0Mx3.5M Yokohama Type Marine Berthing Fender Ship Fender

2.0Mx3.5M Yokohama Type Fender Marine Berthing Fender Ship Fender

Fendercare pneumatic rubber fender is installed on the dock or ship, to absorb the collision energy between the ship and the dock or ship when berthing or mooring, and to protect the ship and the dock from damage.
Pneumatic rubber fender has the advantages of low reaction force, small surface pressure and reasonable energy absorption. In berthing, the ship rolling and pitching adaptability, it will not affected by the size of the ship and is widely used for installation and maintenance convenient, especially suitable for the dock.

Structure characteristics of the pneumatic rubber fender

Florescence Pneumatic Rubber Fenders made of an outer rubber, reinforcement synthetic-tyre-cord layer, and inner rubber, vulcanized firmly.

1. the outer rubbers are used to protect the cord layers and inner rubber from abrasion and other external forces. This rubber compound have sufficient tensile and tear resistance strength to withstand anticipated weather conditions and severe usage.

2. the reinforcement synthetic-tyre-cord layer strong enough to maintain the internal air pressure of the fender.

3. the inner rubber layer seals the pressurized air inside the fender.

4. fenders of diameter 2500mm and larger equipped with safety valve for releasing excess internal pressure when the fenders are over-compressed accidentally.

Fender assembly for the end of metal, by inside and outside the two flanges with bolts, nut clamping, center is a valve, its structure is similar to automobile tire valve.

Factors on design and selection of pneumatic rubber fender

1. Maximum energy absorption
2. Reaction force
3. The distance requirements when two ships berth or one ship goes alongside wharf, including the maximum distance and the minimum distance
4. The size of vessels
5. The factors on storm from real environments and temperature changes.

The purpose of the pneumatic rubber fender

1. ship to ship berthing

Accompanied by a large ship, the risk of two ship berthing at sea is also increased, especially when the weather changes, accompanied by wind and waves.Adopt pneumatic fender as side of the buffer, not only make heavy berthing becomes easy, and improve the efficiency of the transportation operations. Pneumatic fender is mainly used for: Ice in the Antarctic ocean fishing ships, large oil tanker berthing.

2. Used for terminal dock protection

Of the ship is very large, the cause of berthing impact energy have multiplied.Inflatable rubber fender because of its high energy absorption and low reaction force features are widely used.

Maintenance and safety knowledge

1.Internal pressure adjustment

Fender pressure should be kept in the standard air pressure in the± 5% range, and once every three months to check air pressure, deflated or fill gas up to standard in a timely manner.

2. safety knowledge

a. Avoid touching the sharp things

b. when Long time not use, should wash to dry, filled with right amount of compressed air, placed in a cool dry ventilated place.

c. Storage place away from heat, acid and alkali, oil and grease

The advantages of pneumatic rubber fender

1. Choose reinforce synthetic-tire-cord layers

2. No mold vulcanization and attach surrounding molding process

3. High energy absorption and low reaction force

4. Good adaptability to tilt in contact

5. Floating on the surface of the water, ship swaying can apply

Use attention of 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
*The surface or subject next to the pneumatic rubber fender can’t be hard and sharp-pointed in case the pneumatic rubber fender is stabbed
*The accessories and jigs nuts can’t be loose when testing the internal pressure
*The rope net should be reliable,the steel wire used for hanging metal parts and the hook link can’t be tied in disorder.
