Breezemarine Group supplies various mooring equipment from the leading manufacturer Shibata Fender Team Group (Germany) for any projects of our clients - fenders (mooring fenders), bollards (mooring bollards). They serve reliably and trouble-free for a wide variety of mooring needs in the toughest operating conditions.
A hard fender is a device that is used to cushion the impact of a ship’s hull against the pier or other vessel during mooring or towing. This device is aimed to transfer loads to a largest possible area of the side of the vessel and thereby exclude its damage or permanent deformation.
Pneumatic fender (mooring fender) is a rubber cylinder with metal flanges located on rounded ends. A rubber chamber with a valve for filling the device with air is mounted inside the cylinder. To improve the protective features, a net, woven from steel ropes that are passed through rubber tubes and supplemented with tires, is put on the cylinder.
Main features of fenders:
- Great strength and resiliency
- Energy intensity
- Ability to maintain their characteristics in a wide temperature range
- Atmosphere resistance
- Solar radiation resistance
- Resistance to chemical and bacterial influences
- Good performance in compressive, shear, bending and twisting deformations
