Super Cell Rubber Fender (SC Type)
Super cell rubber fender is one of the most proven and reliable marine fender styles ever designed and historically has been the most commonly used fender in the industry. The fender originally is designed to replace the cylindrical fender which has more than 30 years of record of accomplishment with only some minor improvements over the years.
They are designed to absorb the collision energy between ship and dock at the time of berthing for berths, dolphin wharf, offshore docks, and terminals. Cell fender geometrical shape gives it sturdiness, shear resistance, compact structure and the capacity to absorb energy equally from all directions. The cylindrical-buckling column absorbs axial loads efficiently and buckles radially. To distribute the reaction force, they are typically supplied with large fender panels, which keep the hull pressure low. The large mounting flanges serve to distribute the super cell rubber fender loading over the back of the fender panel frame and allow easy installation of the mounting bolts. It is designed to deflect in an axial direction.
Features
Reasonable structure
High energy absorption and low reaction force
Excellent under berthing angle and shear
Suitable for a large wharf
Super Cone Rubber Fender (ZC type)
The super cone rubber fender is also known as ZC type rubber fender. Cone fender is one of the most efficient rubber fender types. The super cone rubber fender is updated generation of cell rubber fender with excellent energy absorption and low reaction force. The structure of the fender is more reasonable. Owing to its unique conical fender structure, it always has excellent performance under different berthing conditions especially where large berthing angles and heavy impacts need to be accommodated. The conical body shape makes the fender very stable even at large compression angles. The deflection can reach 70%, and the equal specification fender energy absorbs raise one more time with long life using. The fender can reduce the cost of the dock project. While vessel angular berthing, the performance unchanged.
They are fully rubber-embedded mounting flanges. Usually closed box steel panel mounting with UHMW-PE plastic pads is an important part of a complete super cone rubber fender system. Fender frontal panel can lower the surface pressure of vessel sideboard and low friction UHMW-PE plastic pads to lower shear loading between fender and vessel to extend the service life of the fender. The Cone fender comes in a wide range of standard sizes, can meet mufti-berthing conditions.
Features
Outstanding energy absorption to reaction force ratio (E/R)
High shear stability
Reducing the pressure during berthing
No loss of performance up to 10° approach angle
Anchor recesses for easier installation
Cylindrical Rubber Fender (Y Type)
The cylindrical rubber fender also named Y type rubber fender can often be installed at less cost than types having equal energy capacity. It offers a means of lower fendering costs when there is a large variation in the size of the incoming vessels. The rubber fender has a very long history due to simple design and easy installation, which makes these units an economical solution for remote locations and for multi-user berths where vessel type cannot always be predicted. The progressive load-deflection characteristics make it suitable for both large and small vessels, with a wide choice of sizes and diameter ratios. The type of marine rubber fender is available in an outside diameter up to 1600 mm and inside diameter ranging from 75 to 800 mm, variable in length up to 5500mm. It is applied for longitudinal and crosswise sway of ships while berthing at the dock and widely used for the ships with different sizes and different docks.
The installation of the cylindrical rubber fender is simple by using chains, bars, ropes or specially designed ladder brackets, depending on the fender size and substructure. There are several different installation methods available for different sizes, small cylindrical rubber fenders, typically up to 600mm OD, are suspended with chains through their bore connected to brackets or U-anchors each end. With small tidal ranges, they are usually mounted horizontally. In large tidal ranges, small cylindrical rubber fenders can be diagonally slung. Large cylindrical rubber fenders up to 1600mm OD are usually suspended using central bars with chain supports at each end connecting back to wall brackets or U-anchors. For very heavy duty applications and for fenders above 1600mm OD, ladder brackets mounting systems are recommended. The cylindrical rubber fender can be provided in specified lengths and the ends can be beveled.
Features
Low reaction force and small surface pressure.
reasonable energy absorption.
Suitable to rolling and pitching of berthing vessels.
