(2)Effective length:from 1000mm to 6500mm
Technical parameters of rubber ship fender
2/Product information
Pneumatic rubber fender also named yokohama fender and ship fender.It is made by twining with one thread.it uses compressed air as buffer medium which can absorb the energy of collisions, it has the advantage of absorbing large capacity of impact energy, low pressure in unit area, high impact fatigue performance, It is easy installation and have long life.
Initial air pressure 0.05 Mpa, reaction load Rand energy absorption in 60% ± 5 deflection.
Three type: tyre net type, rubber net type, rope net type.
3/Ship fender structure
Outer rubber: Protective cord layer and inner adhesive have high tensile strength and abrasion resistance.
Synthetic-tyre cord layer for reinforcement: Strong layer of the pneumatic rubber fender is made from winding the high strength polyamide fiber cord fabric.
Inner rubber: The cord layer of pneumatic rubber fender assures no gas leakage from the compressor.
Flange opening: The flange is a part to fix air valve component, buried metal part and the cord layer and used for hoisting, and filling with discharging gas.
4/Performance characteristics
1. Air-filled rubber ship fender is with the use of high quality natural rubber nylon cord fabrics.
2. Good ageing resistance performance character is tics.
3. Using compressed air as damping medium, the rubber can transform flexibly under pressure, with large contact area, small reaction and absorb large amount of energy.
4. When berthing, the ship is almost at a certain angle, the air-filled rubber ship fender can realize contact in a certain angle by bringing full play to its performance.
5. Floating on the water surface, even the ship fluctuate and sway resulting from ebb and flow and waves, the pneumatic.
6. Simple installation, simply installed on the wharf and anchor mast.
7. Ageing resistance, corrosion resistance
8. Long service life
5/Rubber ship fender application:
1. Tankers, Gas Carriers and Bulk Cargo Ships
2. Fast ferries and aluminum hulled vessels
3. Temporary of permanent installations
4. Rapid response and emergency fendering
5. As stand-off fenders to realign ships with shore facilities
6/Storage of yokohama fender
1. When not using for a long time, wash the fender surface, dry up and fill in sufficient right amount of compressed air to lie in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place.
2. The storage place of pneumatic rubber fender should be far away from heat source.
3. Try to keep fender away from acid, alkali, grease and organic solvents.
4. When not applying the fender, the pneumatic rubber fender can’t be piled up and heavy items can’t be piled on the fender
