NANHAI PNEUMATIC FENDER

Yokohama Type Fender

Pneumatic fenders developed in 1950s,with a history of more than 60 years. Nowadays it has been accepted by the market has been widely applied in STS operation ( Ship to Ship ) and ship to shore operation. Has the advantage of inclined berthing,soft reaction force, stronger against shearing force,adaptable to the tide etc.

Pneumatic fender have different initial internal pressure in 50kPa and 80kPa which manufactured should be according to ISO 17357-1:2014.Traditional pneumatic fender structure has outer rubber layer part,synthetic tire cord part and inner rubber layer part. Based on actual application scenarios and improving the safety factor, NANHAI not only strives for perfection in raw materials, but also optimizes the structure and production technology to make it have higher safety and reliability.

Nearly 20 years of R&D and production of pneumatic fenders, adhering to the spirit of craftsmanship, focusing on details, pursuing excellence no matter where customers can see or not, in order to make better products.

Unique Fender Structure

Pneumatic Fender Structure Fender Body Structure  I Chain Tyre Net Structure

Basic pneumatic fender body construction consists of three parts: Outer rubber layer part, Cord layers part and inner rubber layer part. On the basis of the normal fender structure, NANHAI innovates and upgrades fenders, optimizes the structure to four parts,an air-tightness layer part is added (Reinforcement Layer Part).Greatly improved the airtightness performance and strength of pneumatic fender.

High Strength Tire Cord Material

The strength of pneumatic fender mainly comes from synthetic tire cord layer. NANHAI adopt 3-Strands tire (General adopt 2-Strands) as skeleton material to ensure fender strength.“Invisible Sight” NANHAI still maintain ingenuity. Provide high-strength support and bearing force for fenders.

Safety Valve Structure

Unreasonable safety valve design cannot quickly release pressure in emergency situations, which can easily lead to serious consequences of fender bursting. NANHAI self-developed and designed safety valve has a number of unique patents, as a vital insurance measure which can quickly and accurately release pressure in emergency situations.

Chain Tire Net Structure

Pneumatic fender chain tire net has many difference in design and structure, but the reasonable structure design and quality of all accessories determines whether the fender under truly protected. NANHAI chain tire net arrangement even and reasonable no matter fender head or body.Net density reach at least 70% of fender.

Combined Inflatable Valve

Diameter is bigger,at least 50% increase in inflation efficiency. More importantly,even if valve core is damaged due to improper operation by the user, it is only necessary to replace the top accessories.The design and structure of inflation valve are often overlooked by users.Once the inflation valve is damaged (One-piece Inflatable Valve Structure), fender will be unusable any longer.

Fender Rubber Physical Properties

ISO17357 provide guidance data on rubber physical properties. The test experiments for rubber samples are different from the test experiments for the final product, therefore, the performance data of fender will be different.

PNE1: NANHAI, PNE2 PNE3:OTHER FENDERS

Fender rubber physical properties test include: Tear Strength (Out Rubber), Tensile Strength (Outer&Inner Rubber),Rubber Hardness (Outer&Inner Rubber), NANHAI's all indicators far exceed ISO 17357 requirements. The above data are measured by the third-party laboratory.

NANHAI PNEUMATIC FENDER (FAQ and Market info.)

1NANHAI is the manufacturer ?
NANHAI is the international leading pneumatic fender manufacturer. Nearly 20 years experience of design, research development and production. Own the high brand reputation.
2NANHAI pneumatic fender comply with ISO 17357-1:2014 ?
NANHAI fully comply and exceed the standard of ISO 17357-1:2014, has the third party certification from DNV-GL.
3How about the service life of NANHAI pneumatic fender ?
NANHAI pneumatic fender design life can reach 15 years. According to different application environments, the actual application life can reach 8-15 years.
4How about the fender delivery time ?
In order to satisfied the fastest delivery time of customers, NANHAI has the stocks for standard model, which can be shipped immediately.
5How do customers correctly understand the size of the fender ?
For example: 3.3m*6.5m pneumatic fender which means that only the size of fender body reaches 3.3m*6.5m, if chain tire net be added, it will exceed 3.3m*6.5m. Therefore, customer needs to make it clear in the technical drawing, in case the size of the purchased fender is insufficient.
6Does higher natural rubber content make the fender performance better ?
The senior rubber engineer made it clear that it is not higher natural rubber content make the rubber performance better,but to make the proportion of natural rubber reach the best ratio, so that the performance of production can reach the best state.
7Does heaviest pneumatic fender mean the higher performance ?
After long-term testing and application of fenders, not the heaviest product represents the highest quality performance.The factors that will cause the pneumatic fender to be much more heavy: (1) The content of natural rubber is insufficient.Use scrap to satisfied the weight of fender. (2) To achieve performance,the recycled rubber material content is high.We call it counterweight rubber. (3) Fewer tire cord layers, thus increasing the proportion of rubber.
8Why some fenders are covered with white powder and looks like used one ?
As we all know, talcum powder is widely used in chemical industries such as rubber, plastics, paints, and coatings. Talcum powder is used in the production process of pneumatic fenders by taking advantage of its slippery, soft and dry characteristics to prevent the adhesion between the layers and make it easier to operate and produce. So all manufacturers believe that the application of talcum powder is inevitable, but ignore the disadvantage to use talcum powder in the production process: (1) Insufficient on bonding strength. (2) Insufficient Air tightness Performance. (3) Poor Production Environment. (4) The poor appearance quality, covered with white powder, looks dirty and like a second-hand fender. According to our persistent belief in high-quality products, NANHAI's technical research and development team has already started to study the production process of removing talcum powder, and immature products cannot be introduced to the market, so NANHAI's R&D team has been researching this process day and night. Through repeated type examination to verified the feasibility, safety and stability of the process, and decided to bring it to the market. NANHAI's subversive research and development capabilities and innovation capabilities have carried out an unprecedented "REVOLUTION" in the production process of pneumatic fender, becoming the first one in the world for the improvement of this production process.NANHAI pneumatic fender evolution to M NHP-P-4P2S 3.0
