Pneumatic Fenders
Driven by the challenges facing port and harbour owners our teams have developed a new range of pneumatic rubber fenders. Fast and easy to deploy, these ISO 17357:2002 quality assured fenders ensure large clearances are maintained between the hull and jetty or other vessels. Risk of damage during mooring is minimised, protecting people and cargo.
Pneumatic fenders require minimal maintenance, so costs are kept down. Constructed of several layers of thick rubber, strong nylon fabric and tyre cord, they will not deteriorate under cyclic loads and a high level of buoyancy is maintained. Air has consistent elasticity and compressibility, ensuring continual performance.
Pneumatic rubber fenders are ideal for permanent and semi-permanent port and ship-to-ship transfers. They support berthing at angles up to 15 degrees and for newer vessel types, such as ULCCs, LNG and bulk carriers, FSOs and FSPOs. Due to the hollow construction these fenders are lighter and easier to handle than solid rubber models.
With over a century innovating rubber technology, Trelleborg Marine Systems have the knowledge and expertise. We design with the harshest conditions and your toughest challenges at the forefront, manufacturing end-to-end in our own production facility. Meaning quality and performance is the best available worldwide.
Pneumatic Fenders
Pneumatic fenders are ideal for permanent and semi-permanent port applications and for offshore ship-to-ship transfers.
Hydro Fenders
Submarines and other vessels which contact fenders below waterline require a unique solution. Hydro-pneumatic fenders are specially adapted to this application.
