Introduction to fenders

The fenders are made of 20mm steel plates within a certain length range from the stern of the ship to the vertical range of the freeboard deck, to prevent collision and damage to the ship's side outer plates during berthing or mooring.

Fender plate function

Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fenders have the advantages of light weight, impact resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, UV resistance, aging resistance, low friction coefficient, and can effectively prevent UV radiation. Its impact strength is 20 times that of polyvinyl chloride, 10 times that of nylon 66, and 8 times that of polytetrafluoroethylene. Widely applicable, it can also be used as a collision prevention device for ships. Low reaction force, low surface pressure, and reasonable energy absorption; Strong adaptability to constant roll and pitch during ship berthing; Easy installation and maintenance.
