Yokohama fenders in stock for fast delivery

Whale fender limited keeps regular size yokohama fenders in stock for fast delivery. Yokohama type floating pneuamtic fenders was developed in 1956, it is used world wide for ship to ship(STS) transfer operations, terminals, and for all kindls of ships.

It has below advantages:

1, Safety and Reliability

Constructed of several layers of strong tire-cord, ans are thus resistant to pressure cutting.

2,No Deterioration or Variation in Performance

Pneumatic ruber fenders use the compressive elasticity of air, therefore performance deterioration due to fatigue is absent.

3,Advantages at inclined berthing

Ships usually make initial contact with the dock or another ship on STS operations at an oblique angle. In the case of solid rubber fenders or foam fenders, rated reaction force and energy absorpation decreases considerably at inclinded compressions compared with parallel compression.

4, Most cost competitive system

The utilization of the compressive elasticity of air, unlike other fenders which need protector panels, provides completely uniform surface pressure on contact, making pneuamtic rubber fenders ideal. The surface pressure of the yokohama fenders is equal to the internal air pressure.

5, Soft reaction force for ship and jetty structure

Although all fenders should be used within their maximum load limit, if often happens that fenders accidentally receive excess load. The reaction force of yokohama fenders does not increase sharply even under excess load conditions.

6, Simple and low cost installation

The weight of pneuamtic rubber fenders is supported by the water on which it floats. Therefore, the fender can be moored simply by means of a guy rope or chain, requiring minimal extra cost. I can be removed easily to a suitable jetty or quay when not in use, or transferred to another mooring point whenever required.
