Foam Filled Fender - SunHelm Marine

EVA Foam Filled Fender

High performance polyurea coating

It will not sink or explode.
It is the most commonly used dock anti-collision buffer device now!

Foam filled fenders use lightweight and highly elastic EVA foam as a cushioning medium, which is a better floating fender than inflatable pneumatic fenders.

More introduction

In recent years, a new type of spraying polyurethane (polyurea) technology has been invented to make the surface of the foam filled fender anti-corrosive and scratch-resistant, and it can adapt to various harsh weather environments. Excellent energy absorption performance, coupled with low reaction force, makes berthing operations easier-especially in difficult conditions.The foam filled marine fenders is very safe to use, and there is no risk of blasting. Even if the outer skin is damaged, it will not sink. It can still maintain basic functions until you can repair it. Although the price is not as attractive as the pneumatic fender, but its service life is basically twice that of the inflatable fender. Foam filled fenders are very suitable for dock, especially dock with large tidal range, as well as for ship-to-ship（STS） operations and bridge pier protection.

Why use foam filled fender?

Now more and more docks and shipyards are beginning to use foam filled fenders, because this kind of fender is really suitable as a dock buffer. There is no need to purchase an inflator separately, and there is no need to worry about air leakage after accidentally being stuck. Basically no extra maintenance is needed. As long as it is used properly, the floating foam filled fender can even be used for more than 20 years. Because of its safety, many naval ships of many countries also use it for berthing.

Application

· For ships, offshore platforms, offshore facilities, marinas and yachts.
· Should be applied at tugs, work-boats, pilot ships, high seas docks gravity pier dock, especially dock with large tide scope.
· Applied in naval special warship berthing to provide safety.
·The very large floating fender can increase the berthing depth to upgrade the dock.

Foam Filled Fender Structure

Structure Specification

Inner layer: Filled with Closed-cell EVA foam plastics core to absorb elastic energy, which never sink;
Middle layer: Outer rubber and high strength polyamide cord fabric are adopted to better seal the inner EVA foam;
Outer layer: Spraying with adjustable new polyurea elastic maerial, the polyurea coating is permanent and that protect the outer layer of fender from chemical corrosion resistance.
Ends: Equipped with galvanized flange, swivel and can add a protective layer consist of chain and tire net;
Tyre net sheath: Receiving special treatment, the tyres all have the advantages of firmness, durability and a beautiful surface, which can extend the fender's service life.
