Foam Fenders A Trelleborg Invention Manufactured in the USA at our in-house ISO 9001:2015 & ISO 14001:2015 approved facilities for the first time since 1975, Trelleborg’s foam fenders are designed to achieve high durability, faster turnarounds, and improved safety and longevity. Trelleborg’s foam products are constructed using energy absorbing foam and reinforced polyurethane skin technology. They are typically manufactured in a cylindrical shape with a wide range of diameters and lengths. The fender’s shape and configuration allow it to float freely in the water or be suspended above it, as...

SeaGuard® Foam Fender Trelleborg SeaGuard fenders are typically used between dock and vessel. The fenders are suitable for low hull pressure vessels and can be deployed floating or suspended, against a quay wall which suits all sites with small or large tidal variations. Its common applications include cruise, container, bulk, naval, RoRo, ferries, oil and gas, bunkering and ship-to-ship berthing operations. SeaGuard fenders are fabricated from a closed cell resilient foam that absorbs significant quantities of energy when compressed. The foam is protected by a thick, filament-reinforced outer...

Features & Advantages Trelleborg’s foam products have a proven track record of reliability and performance. A well-designed foam fender will provide many years of reliable and low-maintenance service. All Trelleborg’s foam products are built on a foundation of closed cell foams which provide energy absorption and buoyancy. Fender size and performance can be engineered to meet the specific project requirements. Reinforced elastomer skin The skin thickness of the foam fender is designed as a function of the specific fender rated reaction force and the amount of reinforcement layers needed are calculated...

Fender Construction FOAM DENSITIES - Trelleborg’s foam fenders can be manufactured using a variety of foam densities, which provides a wide range of performance options for fenders of various sizes. Each of the foam densities will have a calculated reaction pressure based on the size, contact area and rated performance. This information is critical when designing for specific energy absorption, reaction forces and vessel hull related pressure situations. Buckling (Rubber) Fenders Foam Fenders At 40% Energy – 100% Reaction Force At 40% Energy – 60% Reaction Force Resulting in lower load in structure...

SKIN - Foam fenders utilize an innovative spray polyurethane technology with continuous wrap nylon reinforcement that provides a resilient nonmarking, low-friction skin. The reinforcement layers are wrapped in a crossing, helical pattern to offer maximum force resistance. The skin thickness of the fender is designed as a function of the specific fender rated reaction force and the reinforcement layers are calculated to resist the shear forces from berthing and mooring. Thus, each fender size and capacity may have a specific skin thickness requirement. On top of the calculated main reinforced...

Customization CUSTOM SIZE Trelleborg’s foam fenders range in sizes from as small as 300mm OD to 4200mm OD. Each fender is custom-made to meet the specifications of each individual project. While rated performance is important, details such as adequate backing surface area, tidal variation, vessel configuration, freeboard and draft, and hull pressures must also be carefully considered. CUSTOM COLORS The fenders are offered in a variety of colors. Trelleborg manufacturing can closely match specific color requirements within the skin formulation. All colors are specifically protected with UV resistant...
