Yokohama fenders
In seaports commonly used are rubber fender systems in fixed positions or floating fenders. Large seagoing vessels use generally no fenders themselves for the mooring in the port. The exception is, for instance, when a bunker boat comes alongside, or when tankers are berthing at sea alongside each other to take over loads. In these situations, pneumatic fenders are often used.
Yokohama fenders are a type of cylindrical airbags with hemispherical heads at both ends. The body construction consists of several layers vulcanized rubber, filled with compressed air through which the fender will float on the water.
FenderTec offers three standard type of (pneumatic) Yokohama fenders:
1. Pneumatic fender with tire net
2. Pneumatic fender sling
3. Pneumatic fender ribbed
The standard color of the Pneumatic rubber fender is black. In addition to the standard types FenderTec can – on request – deliver foam filled fenders, grey color Pneumatic fenders and hydro Pneumatic fenders.
