Floating fenders are specially designed for docks with large tidal variations. These years, with the development of the economy and the marine market, the floating fenders are more and more popular all over the world.
The typical feature of the floating fenders is the flexibility to move along with the rise and fall of the tides. That’s because the floating fenders are manufactured with some “light” materials or filled with air or hydrogen. So, to consistent with the feature of floating fenders, the installation method is to connect the fenders with chains whose another ends are fixed onto the dock structures. This design helps to keep the floating fenders in a certain area while at the same time, remain their flexibility to move along with the rise and fall of the tides.
The floating fenders also require for high-quality materials which are strong, robust and impact resistant. The rubber layer on the outside almost can satisfy all the requirements. And our reinforced rubber materials can provide better performance than others.
