Rubber Ladder Fender
Description:
A marine fender is a device used to protect vessels and structures from damage during berthing and mooring operations. It acts as a cushion or barrier between the vessel and the structure, absorbing the energy generated by the impact and reducing the potential for damage.
One type of marine fender is the Rubber Ladder Fender. As the name suggests, it is constructed primarily of rubber materials and has a ladder-like profile. The Rubber Ladder Fender is designed to provide effective protection against impacts from various angles, making it versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications.
The fender consists of multiple horizontal rubber bars connected by vertical rubber rods, creating a ladder-like arrangement. The horizontal bars are usually reinforced with steel or other materials for added strength. The rubber material used is often a blend of natural rubber and synthetic rubber compounds, which provide durability, flexibility, and resistance to weathering and marine conditions.
Rubber Ladder Fenders are typically installed along the sides of docks, quays, piers, and other marine structures where vessels berth or moor. They can be fixed directly to the structure or mounted on steel frames for ease of installation and maintenance.
When a vessel comes into contact with the Rubber Ladder Fender, the rubber bars and rods compress and deform, absorbing the kinetic energy of the impact. This deformation helps dissipate the energy and reduce the forces transmitted to the vessel and the structure, minimizing the risk of damage.
Rubber Ladder Fenders are known for their high energy absorption capacity and resilience. They can withstand repeated impacts without losing their effectiveness, making them reliable and long-lasting solutions for marine protection.
Features:
1. Same installation holes pitch with super arch rubber fender and can be replaced with each other;
2. Easy for installation and maintenance with long service life.
