Netted cushion marine foam filled fenders are called solid ship cushion marine floating fenders which is with chains and tire nets outside of marine foam fenders polyurethane skin, the only difference between guard type marine foam fenders. Marine netted cushion foam fenders are more stronger due its chains and tire nets coated which can better prevent foam fender body from scratch of external sharp objects. in the solid ship fender systems, foam marine fenders are playing an important role nowdays replacing Yokohama type pneumatic rubber fenders.
Marine foam fenders has a superior advantages, more suitable for docking of ships, military, submarine to harbors, offshores applications that they can absorb energy nearly 2 times of similar pneumatic rubber
fenders, surely with relatively reation force.
Netted Marine Foam Fenders’ Features
- Higher energy absorption and relatively reaction force
- Unsinkable design in case of skin scratched
- Large standoff distance, easier installation and lower maintenance
- Adjust to water levels, protection for rough surface
- Tough, nylon filament reinforced polyurethane skin
Cushion Marine Fenders Design
Our marine foam fenders are constructed with closed-cell resilient foam core, with tougher polyurethane elastomer skin, reinforced with nylon filament inner side.
– Closed cell foam core(inner raw material):
Closed cell foam core are with higher hardness, guaranteening good performance of lower reaction force and higher energy absorption. While the foam body skin was carelessly scratched, it will not absorb any water and inner foam core is not gonna to rupture during any compression.
– Polyurethane elastomer skin(Outer floating fender skin):
polyurethane skin is self-colored elastomer, anti-corrosion, anti-rust and waterproof, particularly for foam filled fendering systems, reinforced with nylon filament layer. Much more thicker filament and elastomer would be applied to two body ends to further resist defections and shearing forces.
– Componed with central steel tubes and external two ends of distribution flanges(steel works I)
All end fittings are hot-dip-galvnized. Without the through pipe, all longitudinal chains are joined to Clevis eyes at both ends of one foam fender.
– Chain fittings and accessories(steel works II) :
chains are heavy duty, hot dipped galvanized. This chains carry tensile load, minimizes stress in the foam fenders’ skin.
Specification Of Foam Filled Fenders
We provide currently standarded capacity marine foam fenders. Lower and higher capacity are optional available meanwhile.
_Notes：
1. Other sizes and capacity models, high capacity, extra high capacity, are available up to customer requirements.
