NANHAI Yokohama Fender

Floating pneumatic rubber fenders are known as Marine pneumatic rubber fenders(Marine rubber fenders), floating pneumatic rubber fenders (pneumatic fenders) or Yokohama-type pneumatic fenders( Yokohama fenders). NANHAI yokohama fender is structurally divided into NET TYPE PNUEMATIC FENDER, SLING TYPE PNUEMATIC FENDER, HYDRO PNUEMATIC FENDER, RIBBED PNUEMATIC FENDER, and CUSTOMIZED PNUEMATIC FENDER(customizable sizes, colors, Custom yokohama fender for performance levels).

The construction of floating pneumatic rubber fenders typically involves using a synthetic-cord-reinforced rubber sheet with compressed air inside. This design enables the fenders to provide effective protection and cushioning for ships, boats, vessels and docks during berthing and mooring operations. The presence of compressed air enables the fenders to float on the water surface and act as shock absorbers between two ships (ship-to-ship) or between a ship and a berth structure, effectively reducing the impact forces during berthing and mooring processes. The compressed air inside the fenders provides efficient cushioning, reducing the impact force when ships berth. The synthetic fiber-reinforced rubber sheets have high wear resistance and durability, ensuring long-term reliability.

NANHAI Pneumatic Fender Performance Advantage

NANHAI Pneumatic Fender Quality Advantage

14 Layer Parts Structure

Compared to the traditional pneumatic fender 3 layers parts, the NANHAI pneumatic fender has a total of 4 layers parts.

Traditional pneumatic fender construction consists of outer rubber layer part, cord layer part, inner rubber layer part. NANHAI pneumatic fender construction consists of outer rubber layer part, synthetic tire cord layer part, air-tightness layer part and inner rubber layer part.

2Unique The Synthetic Tire Cord Structure

The synthetic tire cord structure uniquely designed by NANHAI marine fender engineers.

NANHAI: Only have two parts make one complete cycle,large over laparea,ensure reinforcement cord layer and complete fender performance.

Normal Type:Two parts as well, but less over lap area, low production cost but hardly ensure reinforcement cord layer performance.

Molded Type: At least four parts to make one complete circle, meanwhile no overlap area,which means there are at least four easy breaking points. The strength of fender mainly comes from the synthetic tire cord, so the synthetic tire cord structure and material of the fender play a crucial role.

3Optimization Rubber Materials

Optimization of rubber materials based on ISO17357 provides guidance data.

An important research project of NANHAI professional rubber R&D team named "Temperature Zone Effect Project".According to the global temperature zone division (Tropical,Temperate zone,Frigid zone), different rubber formulations are developed, so that the production of pneumatic fender can maintain the best performance in each temperature zone.The results of this research project are gradually being applied to production manufactured.

43-Strand Synthetic Tire Cord

Adopt 3-strand synthetic tire cord (Normal 2-strand). 

Synthetic tire cord as an important skeleton material,have been proven to provide strong efficient reinforcement layers in fenders. Synthetic tire cord physical properties also determine the strength of fender, which is an important part that cannot be ignored. In the production of fender, the performance of two-strand tire and the three-strand tire is very different in synthetic tire cord. The physical properties of three-strand tire are much higher than two-strand tire to ensure the performance of fender.

5Inner & Outer Flange System

Heavy duty inner and outer flange system.

There are many difference in design of flange system, including:safety performance,style design,material, size,bolts quantity etc.These aspect are all factors which affect the performance of pneumatic fender.

6Self-Developed Safety Valve

Self-developed safety valve with numbers patents.

The inflation valve is used to inflate and measure fender internal pressure. Many difference in valve design and structure,The quality of its structural design has been proved in many applications.

Normal Type: Small safety valve,during emergency situation ineffective in releasing excess internal pressure.   

NANHAI: Excellent larger structural design, efficient and fast to release internal pressure.

7Covered With Chain Tyre Net

NANHAI pneumatic fender safety completely Fender covered with heavy-duty chain tyre net. 

Chain tyre net function is to protect fender and carry weight of fender, so as to prolong the service life of fender. The CTN is composed of chains, tyres (truck tyre/aircraft tyre),rubber sleeve, shackles, flange cages, towing rings, etc. Pneumatic fender chain tyre 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.

8Selective Diversity

Different performance types and construction types can be selected, and different sizes and colors can be formulated according to the needs of customers.

NANHAI supports personalized customization, NANHAI team will be for your specific environment needs, to develop a suitable solution, which includes pneumatic performance type selection, pneumatic structure type selection, pneumatic size selection, pneumatic color selection. Help you find the right pneumatic rubber fender (pneumatic price and pneumatic quality)
