Description

Yokohama Type Floating Pneumatic Fender

Pneumatic fender, also called Yokohama Floating Fender, is a predominant and high-pressure buffering floating system in marine berthing & mooring application nowadays.

The utilization of the compressive elasticity of air provides completely uniform surface pressure on contact, making Yokohama Pneumatic Rubber Fenders as an ideal good shock absorber for ship-to-ship (STS) transfer operations and ship to dock (STD) operations. These fenders play a critical role in the safe operation of ship berthing and mooring for for all kinds of ships and jetties.

Pneumatic fender is strictly produced according to ISO17357-1:2014 standard and PIANC guideline in Jerryborg Marine. Any reduction of the guaranteed energy absorption (GEA) is not accepted. What’s more, all pneumatic fenders made by Jerryborg Marine enjoy 24 months warranty.

Pneumatic Fender Types

Type I: Pneumatic rubber fender with chain & tyre net protective jacket

Type II: Sling type with rubber plate, rubber tube & ropes protective jacket

Type III: Ribbed type rubber fender

Type IV: Rope net type protective jacket rubber fender

Type V: Standard type without any protective jackets

Type VI: Hydro pneumatic rubber fender

Advantage of Pneumatic Fenders

1. Higher Safety and Reliability

2. No Deterioration or Variation in Performance

3. Higher Performance at Inclined Berthing

4. Most Cost Competitive System

5. Soft Reaction Force for Ship and Jetty Structure

6. Lower Mooring Forces under Rough Weather Conditions

7. Stronger against Shearing Force

8. Adaptable to the Tide

9. Simple and Low Cost Installation

10. Low Maintenance Cost

Main Structure of Pneumatic Fender

Yokohama type pneumatic fender is mainly consited of following spare parts

1. rubber fender body

2. used vehicle tires or used aircraft tires

3. protective rubber sleeves

4. metal hardwares like anchor chains, shackles, swivels, towing rings, etc
