D fenders, also referred to as semi-circular rubber fenders, are widely utilized in marine applications such as tugs, barges, work boats, and pilot boats, where they serve as side belts or protective buffers. These fenders can be securely fastened to docks using either hollow or solid anchoring straps equipped with D-shaped holes. Additionally, extended-length D fenders are available to conform to the curvature of a vessel's bow or stern.
D Rubber Fender Production.
1. Our D Rubber Fenders come in three models: DD, GD, and GO. The extended-length versions are ideal for installation at the aft and bow of vessels, while standard-length fenders are well-suited for use along docks.
2. These fenders offer excellent reaction force and superior energy absorption compared to traditional cylindrical rubber fenders.
3. Designed with user-friendliness in mind, D Rubber Fenders can be easily installed using anchor bolts, ensuring both efficiency and reliability.
Features of D Rubber Fender:
1. Exhibits excellent chemical and physical properties, with resistance to high and low temperatures, weathering, water, oil, and dust.
2. Provides low reaction force and minimal surface pressure, ensuring efficient and balanced energy absorption.
3. Features a simple structural design combined with convenient installation and maintenance procedures.
4. Due to its size limitations, its application scope may be somewhat restricted on larger vessels and wharves.
5. Demonstrates strong adaptability to the rolling and pitching movements of ships during docking operations.
