Types of Fenders The most common types of pneumatic fenders that are compliant with the international standard ISO 17357-1:2014 are CTN (TYPE I & TYPE I Single) and sling fenders (TYPE II). Both fender types are typically suspended using chains or guy ropes, secured with shackles to an anchor or mooring point. SLING FENDERS (TYPE II) Trelleborg’s Sling fenders are expertly manufactured to ISO 17357 standards in a purpose-built mold. The fenders can be slung by chains or wire ropes during operation. These fenders are available across the entire range of sizes. Choosing the right type of...

Better by Design DESIGNED TO ISO 17357-1:2014 STANDARDS Trelleborg’s pneumatic fenders are designed, manufactured and third-party certified in compliance with ISO 17357-1:2014. ISO 17357-1:2014 details three major elements of construction and their physical properties: The outer rubber The tire-cord reinforcing layer The inner rubber Outer rubber Cord layers Inner rubber These layers are vulcanized at a high pressure in a mold and hardened at a high temperature, which ensures superior bonding between layers of dissimilar characteristics. OUTER RUBBER The tough abrasion-resistant outer...
