marine rubber fenders which are cost effective and efficient solutions to suit any operating environment, condition and requirement. The principle purpose of a rubber fender system is to protect the hull and berthing facility from damage when vessels berth alongside. The fender functions as a shock absorber by absorbing the berthing energy of a vessel on berthing facility. There are many service factors which must be taken into consideration when making a decision on which type and size of fender is best suited for a given application, type of pier structure, type and size of vessel, berthing velocity of vessel, method of berthing, sea currents and wave action. Some of the most common types of marine fenders 

What is the UHMWPE material:

UHMW is an Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene with a molecular weight between 5 and 9 million, which is also commonly referred as UHMW, or UHMWPE.

UHMWPE  Advantages:

Self-lubricating and very low coefficient of friction;

Excellent chemical & corrosion resistant;

Stable chemical property and can endure the corrosion of all kind of corrosive medium and organic solvent in a certain range of temperature and humidity;

Superior impact resistant, noise-absorption and vibration-absorption;

Low water absorption <0.01% water absorption and not affected by temperature.

Temperature range: -269℃~+85℃;

Light, anti-impact, corrosion resistance, anti-ultraviolet ray, aging resistance, low friction, non-pollution, which is a good material for rubber fender face pad.
