Sling type pneumatic rubber fenders are popular among the world. They are light but robust. They can provide excellent performance on protecting docks with large tidal variations and on ship to ship operations. For application scenarios, such as vessels, that have small storage space, sling type pneumatic rubber fenders can help a lot for they can be deflated off duty.
Sling type pneumatic rubber fenders are manufactured with reinforced rubber. The main body of sling type pneumatic rubber fenders consists of three layers. This special design can help to increase the strength and elastomer of the fenders. Thus, they can provide large compression capability.
Sling type pneumatic fenders are also easy to install with the assistance of chains whose another ends are connected with the dock structures or the vessel hulls. This installation method can ensure the flexibility and also the stability of the fenders.
