The Invisible Bodyguard for Ships at Mooring
Rubber fenders act like airbags for ships, absorbing over 90% of collision energy through elastic deformation. Common cylindrical fenders can withstand the impact of ships weighing 500-2000 tons. Their internal honeycomb structure extends impact time by 3-5 times, significantly reducing instantaneous impact force. High-quality natural rubber formulations maintain elasticity from -30℃ to 60℃, and the surface anti-slip texture effectively prevents ship sideslip.
Scientific Combination of Materials and Structure
Composite Layer Design: Outer layer tear-resistant rubber + middle layer energy-absorbing foam + inner layer high-rigidity skeleton
Form Evolution: From simple cylindrical shapes to D-shaped, M-shaped, and other irregular structures, increasing contact area by 40%
Environmental Innovation: New recycled rubber materials achieve 80% recycling rate, with performance approaching that of virgin materials
Three Secrets to Extending Lifespan
Regularly check for surface cracks; replace immediately if the depth exceeds 5mm.
Avoid prolonged exposure to ozone; ultraviolet radiation accelerates rubber aging.
For use in cold waters during winter, it is recommended to choose low-temperature formulation products.
