D Type Fenders, often known as Extruded Rubber Fenders, serve as a protective barrier, shielding against vessel impact. They are favored for their affordability and adaptability.
The length of D fenders is customizable, allowing us to produce them in any required length. This makes them ideal for small docks, piers, and tugboats. There are two varieties based on the interior configuration: D Fenders with a D-shaped bore and those with a Cylindrical bore, each designed to meet specific protective needs.
A D fender is a type of marine bumper used to absorb the kinetic energy of a boat or ship as it comes into contact with docks, quays, and other vessels. The “D” refers to its cross-sectional shape, which resembles a capital “D”. This shape allows for efficient energy absorption and provides a robust cushioning effect during impact.
These fenders are made from extruded rubber and are known for their versatility and ease of installation. They can be mounted on various surfaces using bolts and are often found on the sides of boats, along quay walls, and on loading docks where vessels berth. D fenders come in various sizes and can be manufactured to any length, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. They’re particularly favored for smaller vessels and mooring structures due to their cost-effectiveness and durable performance.
