Long-Lasting 2.0×3.5m Inflatable Pneumatic Rubber Fender - Fully Customizable

Inflatable rubber fenders are widely used for collision protection in maritime and port operations. They are commonly installed on ships (such as cargo vessels, tankers, and ferries), docks, piers, offshore platforms, and floating structures to absorb impact energy during berthing, mooring, or ship-to-ship transfers, preventing damage to hulls and infrastructure.

The selection depends on several key factors: The displacement and tonnage of the vessel (larger ships require fenders with higher energy absorption capacity). The expected impact speed during berthing. The water depth and environmental conditions (e.g., wave height, current) at the application site. The available installation space (e.g., dock length, ship side clearance). It is recommended to consult with fender manufacturers or engineers to calculate the required energy absorption and select

Regular maintenance helps extend the service life of inflatable rubber fenders, and the key tasks include: Checking air pressure regularly (follow the manufacturer's recommended pressure range; underinflation reduces protection, while overinflation increases the risk of rupture). Inspecting the rubber surface for cracks, abrasions, punctures, or degumming; repair small damages promptly with professional repair kits. Cleaning the fender surface periodically to remove marine organisms (e.g., barna

If minor damage (small punctures, shallow scratches) occurs: Deflate the fender completely and clean the damaged area with a neutral cleaner. Use the manufacturer-provided repair kit (including rubber patches, adhesive, etc.) to cover the damaged part, ensuring full bonding and allowing sufficient curing time. For major damage (large cracks, valve failure, or structural deformation), do not use the fender temporarily. Contact the manufacturer or professional maintenance personnel for on-site ins
