Yokohama Pneumatic Fender
As a professional and a leading manufacturer of pneumaic fenders, Qingdao Luhang has been devoted to developing and manufacturing Yokohama Pneumatic Fenders for more than 2 decades. Essentially there are two main types of marine pneumatic rubbers, defined as either low or high pressure fenders. Yokohama Pneumatic rubber fenders are ideal for permanent and semi-permanent port and ship-to-ship transfers requiring minimal maintenance, so costs are kept down.Pneumatic rubber fenders are made of synthetic-cord-reinforced rubber sheets with compressed air inside at initial pressure of 50kPa (low pressure) or 80kPa (high pressure) to enable it to float on water and work as a shock absorber between two ships or between ship and a dock. Although manufactured using different techniques, both low and high pressure fenders work by the same principle.
Yokohama Pneumatic Rubber Fender Applications
Pneumatic Rubber Fenders are suitable for many applications including:
1. Tankers, Gas Carries and Bulk Cargo Ships;
2. Fast ferries and aluminum hulled vessels;
3. Temporary of permanent installations;
4. Rapid response and emergency fendering;
5. As stand-off fenders to realign ships with shore facilities.
Standard Sizes and Performance of Yokohama Pneumatic Marine Fender
These 2 factors are the critical to show the performace of an air filled marine pneumatic fender. Fenders of 50kPa and 80kPa have their different performace at a compression of 60%. Below is a data table of 50kPa and 80kPa of different standard sizes.
| Fender Size | 50kPa at 60% compression | 80kPa at 60% compression | ||
| GEA KJ | RF KN | GEA KJ | RF KN | |
