Marine Rubber Bumper

Marine rubber bumper, also called Yokohama fender, has been used in port, harbor, and maritime operations for decades since it was developed in 1958. With the development of ship technology, this bumper is used extensively in ship-to-ship transfer operations and ship mooring and berthing operations. It’s always regarded as a buffer to reduce shock in between due to its excellent performance of great elasticity and abrasion-resistance.

Marine Rubber Bumpers are divided into three types, including sling type, hydro-pneumatic type, and chain and tire net type. Each type plays a critical role in protecting the safety of marine operations.

Fully compliant with the ISO17357 standard, Jerryborg’s bumper supplies with a variety of specifications and dimensions to meet customer’s requests and different application conditions. 

Marine Rubber Bumper Advantage

1. Shape Conformant at Inclined Compression

Docking bumper is made of reinforced cord layers of high elasticity and flexibility, which enable it to make it shape conformant at inclined compression during ship-to-ship operations. Compared with solid fender and foam fender, the docking bumper is easier to distribute the load along the ship's body or berthing structure.

2. Advantage Under Severe Weather Conditions

Under normal circumstances, the ship movement caused by high and long-period waves or strong wind will bring repeated compression and shearing forces on the bumper and make it easier to be fatigue and damage. However docking bumper is strong enough to resist severe weather conditions, the reaction force increases slowly compared with solid fender and won’t easily reach the maximum.
