Pneumatic Marine Fender With Accessories

PNEUMATIC MARINE FENDER IN GENERAL

Seaports commonly use fi xed rubber fender systems or floating fenders. While most large seagoing vessels do not use fenders when mooring in the port, one possible exception is when a bunkership comes alongside the vessel or when tankers berth alongside each other at sea to take on loads. In these situations, pneumatic fenders are frequently used.
A fl oating pneumatic fender is like a cylindrical airbag with hemispherical heads at both ends. The body consists of several layers of vulcanized rubber fi lled with compressed air, which allows the fender to fl oat on water.
Due to these special features, pneumatic fenders are commonly used by the off shore and dredging industries to protect ships, platforms and workboats, and as spacers between the ship and the quay in ports.
The performance of pneumatic rubber fenders is determined by its energy absorption and reaction force.

LUHANG off ers two standard type of pneumatic fenders:
• Pneumatic fender with tire net
• Pneumatic fender sling-type (without tire net)

The standard colour for pneumatic rubber fenders is black.
In addition to the standard types, LUHANG can also provide foam-fi lled fenders, grey color pneumatic fenders and hydro pneumatic fenders on request.

THE BODY OF THE PNEUMATIC FENDER CONSISTS OF THREE LAYERS

1. Outside rubber layer

The outer rubber layer protects the cord layer and the inner rubber layer from abrasion and external forces

2. Reinforced layers

The synthetic tire cord layer maintains internal air pressure and distributes stress evenly

3 .Inner layers

The liner of the rubber membrane seals in pressurized air

• Requires minimal maintenance
• Low transportation expenses
• Produced in compliance with ISO17357:2014

PNEUMATIC FENDER WITH TIRE NET

The pneumatic fender with tire net is the most frequently used type of pneumatic fender. It is outfitted with what's known as “netting”. This netting is composed of car or truck tires (aircraft tires are also an option) that are connected by horizontal and vertical chains, forming a net around the fender. The tire net offers additional protection for the fender body.

At each end, the chains are securely attached to a flange and a towing ring. Both the horizontal and vertical chains, along with the towing ring, shackles, and swivel, are galvanized. This galvanization serves to prevent corrosion. To avoid any damage to the ship, the chains are covered with rubber sleeves. Additionally, the towing ring, flange, and swivel can be made of stainless steel.

These pneumatic net fenders are available from stock, with an internal pressure of 0.5 bar. Moreover, all dimensions can be manufactured and supplied with an internal pressure of 0.8 bar.

PNEUMATIC FENDER SLING

The sling - type pneumatic fender is essentially a pneumatic fender without netting. Its outer cover is a unique double - layer structure made of rubber. This double - layer cover is composed of a single cover and an additional tire cord layer. The purpose of this design is to offer enhanced protection against damages during operation.

At each end of the fender, a flange equipped with a shackle and a swivel is installed. This allows for easy attachment of a cable or a chain.

These pneumatic sling - type fenders maintain an internal pressure of 0.5 bar and are available from our inventory. Moreover, we can produce and supply fenders of all dimensions with an internal pressure of 0.8 bar upon request.
