An inflatable fender dock boat marine pneumatic rubber fender, also known as a Yokohama fender, is a floating fender made of synthetic-cord-reinforced rubber with compressed air inside. It serves as a shock absorber between ships or between ships and berthing structures.
Our pneumatic rubber fenders are available in diameters ranging from 500 mm to 4,500 mm and lengths from 500 mm to 9,000 mm.
The floating pneumatic rubber fenders are fully compliant with ISO 17357 standards, ensuring they meet industry requirements for performance and safety.
Pneumatic fenders absorb energy by compressing the air inside, which allows them to reduce the reaction force and provide a cushioning effect during ship-to-ship or ship-to-dock interactions.
Yes, pneumatic fenders can maintain energy absorption levels under inclined compression up to 15 degrees, making them effective for inclined berthing scenarios.
The fenders are constructed from tough abrasion-resistant rubber and several synthetic-cord layers, providing durability and self-buoyancy for long service life.
Pneumatic fenders offer better energy absorption at inclined angles and maintain consistent performance even under rough conditions and cyclic loads, reducing maintenance costs and damage risks.
Pneumatic fenders are lightweight and can be easily handled and installed using guy-rope or guy-chain, making them user-friendly.
Pneumatic fenders have low maintenance requirements due to their durable construction, minimizing damage risks and maintenance costs.
Yes, pneumatic fenders are available in sling-type configurations or with heavy-duty chain and tire nets for added security and stability.
Yes, we also supply vertical hydro pneumatic fenders specifically designed for submarines.
The pneumatic fenders are packaged on pallets for secure transport and storage.
Choosing the right size fender depends on the specific berthing conditions, such as the size of the vessels involved and the angle of contact. It is advisable to consult with a marine fender expert for recommendations.
With proper care and maintenance, pneumatic rubber fenders can have an extremely long service life due to their durable materials and construction.
Yes, the synthetic-cord layers and tough rubber construction of pneumatic fenders allow them to perform consistently even in rough sea conditions.
