Aug 21, 2021
Cylindrical rubber fender:
Features Low reaction force, low surface pressure, reasonable energy absorption; Strong adaptability to ship rolling and pitching when berthing. It is not affected by the size of the ship and has a wide range of uses. It is easy to install and maintain, and is especially suitable for old-fashioned wharves.
Semi-circular type (D type) rubber fender:
Features Moderate reaction force, higher energy absorption than cylindrical type; easier to install and work; due to the small bottom width, it is especially suitable for framed wharf and shipboard installation.
DO type rubber fender:
Features The reaction force energy absorption is higher than that of the D-type fender; the installation strength and service life are greatly improved than that of the D-type fender; it is suitable for frame-type docks.
Arched (V-shaped) rubber fender: Features moderate reaction force, high energy absorption; firm and convenient installation;is suitable for all types of terminals.
DA type rubber fender:
Features It has the characteristics of high energy absorption and low reaction force; the product has higher stress dispersion and long service life; the front end is equipped with a defensive plate to reduce surface pressure; complete specifications and diverse installation methods; easy to replace.
Drum rubber fender:
Features low reaction force and large energy absorption; surface pressure below 25 tons/m2; small reduction in mechanical properties of inclined compression; ∏-type rubber fender: features low reaction force and large energy absorption; easy installation; generally suitable for large and medium-sized wharfs .
