Wharf Fender Flexible Fit High Performance Long Service Life Compact Design
Description
The V-type Dock Rubber Fender offers unmatched impact protection for ships and dock structures. Made from durable synthetic rubber, it withstands extreme marine environments while providing flexible compression and energy absorption. Its V-shaped design minimizes contact pressure, reducing potential damage to vessels and berths.
Case Study
At the Abu Dhabi Industrial Port, V-type fenders were installed along a bulk carrier terminal. Operators reported a notable reduction in pier maintenance costs and improved vessel docking safety over two years, even under frequent berthing of large ore carriers. The fender’s resilience and low maintenance made it a reliable choice for high-intensity industrial operations.
