Introduction To The Characteristics Of Various Types Of Rubber Fenders

1) Cylindrical rubber fender:

Features Low reaction force, small surface pressure, reasonable energy absorption; strong adaptability to ship roll and pitch when berthing, not affected by ship size, wide application, and convenient equipment repair, especially suitable for old-fashioned docks.

2) 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 protective plate to reduce the surface pressure; the standard complete equipment has various methods; it is easy to replace.

3) Semi-circular (Type D) rubber fenders:

Features The reaction force is moderate, and the energy absorption is higher than that of the cylindrical type; the equipment is more convenient to operate; because of the small width of the bottom, it is especially suitable for the use of frame-type docks and shipside equipment.

4) Drum-type rubber fender:

Low characteristic reaction force, large energy absorption; surface pressure below 25 tons/m2; small drop in mechanical properties during tilting and compression; Π-type rubber fender: low characteristic reaction force, large energy absorption; convenient equipment; generally suitable for large and medium-sized wharves.

5) DO-type rubber fender:

Features The energy absorption of the reaction force is higher than that of the D-type fender; the equipment strength and service life are greatly improved compared with the D-type fender; it is suitable for the frame-type wharf.

V-type arch rubber fender: Features Moderate reaction force, and high energy absorption; strong and convenient equipment; suitable for all types of docks.
