Donut Fender
Specific Type Foam Fender
Donut Fender is a specific type of foam fender which is the effective solution for simple berthing dolphins, guiding and turning structures. Due to its construction, the fender floats up and down with the fluctuating water levels and rotates when vessels berth and slide along the fender.
Donut Fender constructed 100% closed cell foam core, polyurethane skin with continuous nylon filaments. The internal casing has long-lasting, low-friction bearings which need minimal maintenance. The foam is unsinkable and cannot burst or deflate.
Donut Fener Applications
- Locks and dry dock entrances
- Corner protection
- Turning/Monopile structures
- Simple breasting dolphins
- Bridge protection
- Large tidal variations area
Donut Fender Features
- 360° rotates around a pile
- Rises and falls with water level
- Fast and easy to install
- Low shearing forces
- Low hull pressures
- Non-marking skin
- Almost maintenance free
- Custom sizes
Donut Fender Structural Design
Donut Fender can be applied for special purpose, mainly due to the fender Unique Structural Design, Superior Original Material and World-Leading Production Technology.
- 01-Heavy Duty Inner Tube
- 02-UHMW PE Pads
- 03-Closed Cell Foam Core (100%)
- 04-Nylon Filament Reinforcement Layer
- 05-Corrosion Resistance Polyurethane Skin
01 Heavy Duty Inner Tube
Galvanized heavy duty inner tube is the support and load-bearing structure. Its strength directly determines the service life of the fenders. Inner tube can be customized by requirements.
02 UHMW PE Pads
UHMW PE Pads (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Pads) which has long-lasting, low-friction with minimal maintenance.
03 Closed Cell Foam Core (100%)
Due to the molecular structure of Closed Cell (Isolation of Gas), so the foam core can maintain excellent elasticity which is the basis of foam fender performance. Donut Fender utilizing only cross-linked, closed cell polyethylene.
04 Nylon Filament Reinforcement Layer
Donut Fender is constructed Continuous Tough and Thick Nylon Filament Reinforcement in Polyurethane skin which provides superior strength.
05 Corrosion Resistance Polyurethane Skin
High performance Polyurethane skin: Anti-acid, Alkali and salt corrosion, Anti-UV resistant, Non-marking which makes the Donut Fender skin extremely durable to all types of weather, forces and marine conditions.
