W Type Rubber Fender
Description:
A W type rubber fender is a type of marine fender that is commonly used to absorb and distribute the energy generated during vessel berthing or docking operations. It is designed in the shape of a "W" and is typically made of high-quality rubber or elastomeric materials.
The W type rubber fender consists of multiple parallel hollow chambers that are interconnected. This design allows the fender to compress and deform when it comes into contact with a vessel, thereby absorbing the impact energy and reducing the forces transmitted to the dock or ship structure. The compression and deformation of the fender help in preventing damage to both the vessel and the dock.
The W type rubber fender offers several advantages. Firstly, its multi-chamber design provides a large surface area, which results in improved energy absorption capabilities. This enables it to handle high-energy impacts from large vessels. Secondly, the interconnecting chambers allow for even energy distribution, reducing the stress concentration on any particular area of the fender. Additionally, the rubber material used in its construction offers excellent resilience, durability, and resistance to harsh marine environments.
These fenders are typically installed along the sides of a dock or berth, either horizontally or vertically, depending on the specific requirements and layout of the port. They are often fixed to the structure using bolts, chains, or other appropriate fastening methods.

Introduction:
There are two types of W type rubber fender, two legs W type rubber fender and three legs W type rubber fender. As these fender has wider face, compare with super arch rubber fenders, the hull pressure is relatively low and have more deflection and better energy/reaction ratio.It’s suitable for application on bow and stern of tugboats, work boats and icebreakers. With flexible legs, it's easy to install the W type rubber fender with a large or small radius by means of bolt rods.
Features of W Type Rubber Fender:
. Simple one-piece design;
. Excellent shear performance;
. Easy to install;
. Easy to Maintain.
Typical Applications:
. Tugboats, Work-boats;
. Barge and Tug berths;
. All types of berths, jetty structures.
