Marine Rubber Seals Balloon Yacht Dock Fender

Pneumatic Rubber Fendera

 The pneumatic fenders are also called inflatable fenders, has the following characteristics:

1. High energy absorption
The energy absorption is the main technical data of the pneumatic rubber fender. As the tonnage of the ship increases, the impact energy of the ship contacting the shore or other vessels increases exponentially during berthing operations. The huge impact energy must be absorbed by the full deformation of the fender and sufficient contact area. Our pneumatic fender compression deformation could be more than 60%, and the contact surface area expanding by the compression deformation increasing. This fenders’ energy absorption ability is much more than other type fenders.

2. Super low reaction force
We fill the low pressure air inside the inflatable fenders, so the inner pressure is increased limited during the compression deformation.
Due to the large contact surface, so the pressure to the ship unit area is low. Compared with other ship fenders, this is not only a low reaction force, it is a super low reaction force.

3. The inclined contact is good during the operation
For ships, there must be a certain angle of access to the shore and the possibility of connecting the ship. Our inflatable pneumatic fenders are much more adaptable to inclined contacts than other fenders.

4. The rubber pneumatic fender will be floating on the water, even the ship swings, it can be applied.
HAOHANG inflatable fenders float on the surface of the water ( over 50% of the body area). And by the tiding, the fender position will not change with respect to the ship’s position. In particular, when the ship sways with the waves, the cylindrical inflatable fenders roll with little friction. Therefore, it will not damage the shipping coating, and also can ease the swinging and vibrating of ship.
This rubber inflatable fenders have been widely used in oil tankers, container ships, yachts, offshore platforms, large docks, military port terminals, large bridge piers, etc.

Inflatable Boat Fenders-Rubber Mat Type

Inflatable boat fenders – rubber mat type is our rubber mat type pneumatic type fender. However, not too many clients order this kind of fender, it is ok for our production.

Besides this fender, most popular is our pneumatic fender with tire chain net type, rope net type, sling type.

Importantly, the inflatable fenders made by the standard ISO17357.
Also, we have two type of performance, one is 50kpa, another is 80kpa. We have the test equipment to make the test.

Product Description

We design and manufacture our pneumatic floating rubber fenders to withstand impact and pressure from large scale vessels. Our customers regularly use this product for both ship-to-ship as well as ship-to-dock operations. We have a large selection of standard diameters available from 500mm to 3300mm. Subject to minimum order quantities, we can also produce bespoke dimensions to suit your exact requirements.

A key feature of our floating rubber fenders is the products excellent abrasion resistance. This creates a low friction surface, which enables our fenders to provide exceptional impact absorption properties while maintaining durability. You can also easily deflate our floating fenders to allow for a simple and cost-effective relocation solution.

Our larger floating rubber fenders typically feature a tyre netting system. This is a cost-effective solution to easily increase the life expectancy of the product. When in contact with ships and other sea vessels our floating fenders provide a low-pressure barrier. This significantly reduces the potential for damage, on the ship as well as the fender or dock. It also enables you to use our product in liquid cargo vessels applications and defence vessels with sensitive equipment.

Performance of Pneumatic Rubber Fender

Compared with the traditional elastic rubber fender, our inflatable rubber fender has the following advantages:
1. The energy absorption is large, and the reaction force on the ship is small.
2. Easy for installation
3. Good elasticity, will not deform under the compression
4. Light and economy
