Marine fender is a kind of anchorage buffer and protection of ship supplies, widely used in ships, offshore facilities, offshore platforms, port docks, yachts and other fields. Marine fenders are more practical and economical than ordinary rubber fenders, so they are widely popular. Marine fender is a rubber sealed container made of rubber cord fabric as the skeleton material. After the compressed air is filled into the ball, it can float on the water surface and become an important buffer medium for ships and ships to berthing. At the same time, the inflatable rubber ball can absorb the impact energy of the ship's movement, reduce the recoil of the ship, and greatly improve the safety of the ship's berthing. It uses air compression as a medium to absorb the impact capacity of the ship, the recoillation of the ship is small, compared with the general elastomer fender, inflatable fender has the advantages of large energy absorption, small unit area suitable for ships, excellent impact resistance, light weight, simple installation, economic and practical. Inflatable fender is widely used for cushioning and protection of ships, offshore facilities, offshore platforms, port docks and yachts berthing.
Characteristics and main applications of Marine fender
1. The impact energy absorption is large and the ship's impact resistance is small; Simple installation;
2, good elasticity, will not be deformed under pressure;
3, light weight, practical economy;
4, tilt compression performance will not be reduced. The ball has been widely used in oil tankers, container ships, yachts, offshore platforms, large docks, military ports, large docks and so on. Using compressed air as a buffer medium, inflatable rubber absorbs the impact energy of the ship, so that the ship has greater flexibility and flexibility when berthing, so as to achieve the purpose of collision and shock absorption. Therefore, it is widely used in ship-to-ship transfer and ship berthing operations. Gasket Inflatable rubber gaskets are fenders developed and manufactured according to ISO 17357 with high strength and wear resistance. Its outstanding appearance is to wrap the inflatable fender in the tire chain mesh, thus extending the service life of the fender body.
