Exceptional Energy Dissipation for High Frequency Docking
The fender’s internal air chamber allows progressive compression, effectively absorbing impact energy during frequent berthing events. This prevents stress spikes on vessel hulls and dock structures, maintaining operational continuity in high-traffic ports.
Ultra Resilient Reinforced Cord Layers
Multiple layers of synthetic tire-cord fabric embedded in high-quality rubber provide superior tensile strength and fatigue resistance. This reinforcement maintains the fender’s cylindrical shape and prevents delamination under repeated compression cycles, ensuring long-term stability in high-load environments.
Durable and Weather Resistant Rubber Shell
The external rubber layer is formulated for maximum resistance against ozone, UV radiation, saltwater, and abrasion. The seamless design minimizes wear and tear during repeated docking of large vessels, while optional chain-tire nets provide additional mechanical protection for extreme impact scenarios.
Flexible Deployment and Pressure Adjustment
Hongruntong pneumatic fenders are lightweight and easily installed or repositioned. Air pressure can be adjusted to optimize stiffness for varying vessel sizes and berthing conditions, ensuring consistent energy absorption across multiple operational scenarios.
Applications
