Marine rubber fenders come in several types, each designed for specific applications based on factors such as energy absorption, installation space, and the type of vessel or infrastructure.

1. Cylindrical Fenders

• Shape: Cylindrical, or round, fenders are one of the most common types used for general applications.
• سمات: They are designed to provide reliable and consistent energy absorption and are often used on both ships and docks.
• التطبيقات: Commonly installed on docks, piers, and ships, and used in a wide range of marine environments, including ports and harbors.

2. D-Type Fenders

• Shape: These fenders are shaped like the letter “D” when viewed in cross-section.
• سمات: They are particularly useful where space is limited or when the fender needs to offer a larger surface contact area for energy absorption.
• التطبيقات: Typically installed along quay walls or piers and used on ships during berthing operations.

3. Cone Fenders

• Shape: Cone-shaped with a tapered end.
• سمات: Designed to offer higher energy absorption per unit length than cylindrical fenders.
• التطبيقات: Often used in areas with heavy ship traffic or where high-impact resistance is needed, such as in large ports or terminals.

4. Arch Fenders

• Shape: Arch-shaped fenders that provide a large contact area with the ship.
• سمات: These fenders are ideal for larger vessels and those requiring high-energy absorption.
• التطبيقات: Primarily used in docks and harbors where heavy-duty fenders are required.

5. Pneumatic Fenders

• Shape: Large, inflatable rubber fenders that can be inflated to the required pressure.
• سمات: Pneumatic fenders are particularly effective at absorbing large amounts of energy while being lightweight and easy to install and remove.
• التطبيقات: Commonly used for ship-to-ship transfers (STS), offshore oil platforms, and in places where space is limited.

6. Flat Fenders

• Shape: These fenders have a flat, wide surface designed to cover large areas.
• سمات: Flat fenders offer a more even distribution of pressure and can be installed in areas with limited height.
• التطبيقات: Typically used in areas where wide, flat surfaces are needed, such as alongside dock structures or larger ships.
