Foam Filled PU Fender
Description:
A foam-filled PU (polyurethane) fender is a type of marine fender designed to provide impact protection and energy absorption for ships, boats, and other vessels. It consists of a durable outer skin made of polyurethane material, which encloses a foam core.
The outer skin of the fender is typically made from high-quality polyurethane that offers excellent resistance to abrasion, UV radiation, and harsh marine conditions. This robust construction ensures long-lasting durability and reliable performance in various marine environments.
The foam core of the fender serves as the main energy absorption component. It is usually made of closed-cell polyurethane foam, which provides buoyancy and resilience. This foam core is designed to compress and deform when subjected to impact forces, absorbing the kinetic energy and reducing the impact transmitted to the vessel and the dock or other structures.
Foam-filled PU fenders offer several advantages over other types of fenders. They have a high energy absorption capacity, allowing them to effectively cushion the impact from berthing ships, minimizing the risk of damage to both the vessel and the dock. Additionally, they have low reaction forces, which means they exert less pressure on the vessel during contact.
These fenders are also known for their low maintenance requirements. The polyurethane outer skin is resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and marine growth, reducing the need for frequent inspections and replacements. The closed-cell foam core is designed to prevent water ingress, ensuring the fender remains buoyant and functional even if the outer skin is damaged.
Foam-filled PU fenders come in various sizes and shapes to accommodate different vessel types and berthing conditions. They can be installed horizontally or vertically and are commonly used in ports, harbors, offshore platforms, and other marine applications.

Application:
Foam filled PU fender is a kind of fender that uses lightweight and high-elastic foam as a buffering medium. It is widely used in ports, offshore and ship berthing operations.
Features:
1. Made of new environmentally friendly materials, with high strength, high elasticity, high adhesion, aging resistance and other properties, and can maximize anti-permeability;
2. The color can be changed by spraying, and it is stronger and more durable than inflatable fenders, and has a longer service life;
3. The fender is made of PU material as the outer protective layer, and the interior is filled with foam material as the buffer medium.
