UHMWPE fender panels for ports, docks and vessel protection

UHMWPE fender panels are installed on marine fender systems to reduce friction between the vessel and the fender structure. The panel provides a low-friction sliding surface, helps protect the hull, and can extend the service life of rubber fenders, steel panels and dock protection systems.

RFQ tip: send panel length, panel width, thickness, color, hole position, countersink or chamfer requirement, drawing, vessel type, berth condition, steel backing size, quantity and destination. If the panel must match an existing fender system, include photos of the current steel frame and bolt layout.

UHMWPE fender is a bumper used to absorb the kinetic energy of a boat or vessel berthing against a jetty, quay wall or other vessel.Fenders, used on all types of vessels, from cargo ships to cruise ships, ferries and personal yachts, prevent damage to vessels and berthing structures. To do this, fenders have high energy absorption and low reaction force.Fenders are typically manufactured out of rubber, foam elastomer or plastic.
UHMW plastic fenders are either extruded or made in a mold. The tyPE of fender that is most suitable for an application depends on many variables, including dimensions and displacement of the vessel, maximum allowable stand-off, berthing structure, tidal variations and other berth-specific conditions. The size of the fender unit is based on the berthing energy of the vessel which is related to the square of the berthing velocity.

UHMWPEfenders panels is also used on ports and berths as well. The fendering systems act as elastic buffer devices that are used to slow ships down and prevent damage to the ship or dock structure in the mooring process. Back
