Types Of Dock Fenders

Pier fenders usually include the following types:

Rubber fenders are a common dock protection facility, usually made of highly elastic rubber. They are installed at the edges of docks to cushion potential collisions when ships dock or depart. Rubber fenders can absorb collision energy, reduce the stress on ships and dock structures, and reduce the risk of damage.

Foam fenders are typically made from high-density polyethylene foam, which is lightweight, durable and corrosion-resistant. This type of fender can effectively reduce collision damage between ships and docks, while being able to withstand the pressure of harsh marine environments.

The different types of fenders mentioned above can be selected and combined according to specific needs and environmental conditions to ensure that docks and ships are fully protected during berthing and operation.
