ISO17357 Pneumatic Fender for Submarine Great Elasticity Drifting Floater

Pneumatic Fender

Pneumatic fender,

Pneumatic rubber bumper, also called Yokohama fender, has been used in port, harbor, and maritime operations for decades since it was developed in 1958. With the development of ship technology, this product is used extensively in ship-to-ship transfer operations and ship mooring and berthing operations. It’s always regarded as a buffer to reduce shock in between due to its excellent performance of great elasticity and abrasion-resistance.

Fully compliant with the ISO17357 standard, Jerryborg’s fender supplies with a variety of specifications and dimensions to meet customer’s requests and different application conditions.

Pneumatic Fender Classification

According to international pneumatic rubber fenders, drifting floater systems are divided into two categories. From the appearance, there are two types of drifting floater:

1.Initial Pressure 50 Kpa, P50 drifting floater
2.Initial Pressure 80 Kpa, P80 drifting floater
3.Type I, CTN Type, with chains and tire nets
4.Type II, Sling Type, without chains and tire nets

Pneumatic Fender Structure

① Outer rubber layer

Drifting floaters are covered by the outer layer made of natural rubber. This compound is strong enough to protect the inner layer and synthetic-cord layer from the damage of external forces and severe weather conditions due to its high elasticity and abrasion resistance.

② Synthetic-tire-cord layer

The Synthetic-tire-cord layer is made of synthetic-tire-cord fabrics, compared with synthetic canvas fabric and synthetic belt fabric, this reinforcement layer performs better in fatigue-resistance and pressure-holding.

③ Inner rubber layer

The inner layer is designed to seal the air inside the fender.

Pneumatic Fender Application

1. STS sea transport.

2. Double banking and ships berthing at docks /jetty.

3. Oil and gas carriers.

4. Temporary and permanent installation.

5. Quick response and emergency.

6. Liquid cargo and naval defense ships.
