Fender Types and Features
High Performance Super Abrasion Resistant (HPSAR) Fenders: These fenders use a superior rubber compound to extend service life by up to five times, reducing maintenance costs, and are suitable for bulk cargo berths and tug operations.
Cylindrical Fenders: Known for simplicity and versatility, they offer a progressive load-deflection curve and come in various sizes.
Extrusions: Robust rubber profiles for general fendering, customizable in length and shape, available in black or creamy white.
Composite Fenders: Combining rubber and UHMW-PE for resilience and low friction, suitable for small craft jetties and mooring pontoons.
Heavy Duty Molded Fenders: Feature a D-shaped rubber body with an embedded steel plate for enhanced strength, ideal for tug vessels and small ferries.
Fender Bars: Designed for heavy-duty applications, providing strong fixing points and reducing bolt bending moments.
Marine Protection Plates: Heavy-duty steel bumpers with a custom-made rubber surface, ideal for pontoon and dock protection.
Ramp and Cope Protections: Rubber elements that protect ramps and cope edges, reducing noise and wear.
Shear Fenders: Omnidirectional with a linear reaction curve, supporting large weights.
Tug Fenders: Designed for extreme conditions, considering bollard pull and dynamic load effects.
M-Fenders: Flexible contact face with grooves for extra grip, suitable for tugs and pontoon protection.
W-Fenders: Unique open bore design for easy installation, suitable for ocean-going tugs and icebreakers.
Keyhole Fenders: Traditional keyhole profile for heavy-duty applications, with optional UHMW-PE faces for low friction.
Accessories
Includes chains, anchors, fixing bolts, and chain tensioners to support heavy components and control fender deflection during impact.
Technical Specifications and Components Overview
Chain Specifications: Detailed specifications for chain sizes, including dimensions, weight, and strength parameters.
Link and Shackle Details: Specifications for common and open link chains, Dee and bow shackles, detailing dimensions and load capacity.
Anchor Systems: EC2 and NC3 anchors are discussed for different installation scenarios.
Bolts, Nuts, and Washers: Specifications include material grades, tensile strength, and dimensions, emphasizing the importance of correct components.

High Performance Super Abrasion Resistant Fenders FEATURES Lower density fenders, less weight Potential savings on running costs Trelleborg has developed a superior new rubber compound used in the high performance super abrasion resistant (HPSAR) cylindrical & tug cylindrical fenders. High abrasion resistance This superior compound could increase the fenders’ service life by up to five times, reducing maintenance and replacement costs. Fishing and workboat berths Longer service life and less damage Superior physical properties APPLICATIONS Bulk cargo berths General cargo quays RoRo and ferry...

Multipurpose and Tug Fenders Brochure-7

This new compound not only increases service life, but has a lower density than traditional solutions,which means less weight and potential savings. The new compound offers enormously improved characteristics such as elongation at break and tear strength, and the abrasion resistance critical for tug applications, as shown in the table below. Tug fenders using the HPSAR compound should be specified by more than traditional parameters such as abrasion resistance, tensile strength, tear resistance and elongation at break. To ensure the quality and performance of the fenders, the superior compound...

Cylindrical Fenders FEATURES Simple and economical design Easy to install and maintain Cylindrical fenders have protected ships for more years than any other fender type. They are simple, versatile and easy to install. Their progressive reaction makes them ideal for berths serving large and small vessels. The wide range of available sizes (as well as almost any intermediate size) means cylindrical fenders can be closely matched to each application. RoRo and ferry terminals Note: HPSAR cylindrical fenders are available. Please refer to pg 5 - 6. Thick wall resists abrasion and wear Progressive...

0B CHAIN (SL2) SHACKLE PIN 0 0B CHAIN (SL2) SHACKLE PIN 0 Large cylindricals (0900-01600 mm) often use a central support bar connected at each end to chains which go back to brackets or U-anchors on the quay wall. Very large cylindricals (>01600 mm) may require special ladder brackets due to their weight. These are specially designed for each application.

Composite Fenders FEATURES Resilient rubber body Low-friction UHMW-PE face Composite fenders, also called Rubbylene®, are composites of rubber for resilience and UH MWPE for low-friction and wear resistant properties. Strong molecular bond The two materials are bonded with a special vulcanizing method which is stronger and more reliable than a mechanical joint. Composite fenders are used where the simplicity of extrusions are required but with lower shear forces. Pile guides on floating structures Easily drilled and cut Many standard sizes APPLICATIONS Jetties and wharves for small craft Mooring...
