Jerryborg Marine Workboat Fendering System
As a leading manufacturer in the world marine fender industry, Jerryborg Marine has its focus on a wide range of different workboat fender systems. We can produce various foam fenders of any shape and size with different anti-collision characteristics to meet the individual requirements of your vessel. All shipboard fender applications have a common advantage that they are spectacularly designed to be lighter and stronger than existing rubber fender systems, leading to significant cost savings in operation. Besides that, the design and appearance of the fenders are exquisite and the high flexibility and customizability in the manufacturing process offers marine architects a new extent of applicable forms, roundings and curves.
The construction of a workboat fender is much the same as a composite workboat fendering system. Closed cell foam acts as a shock absorber during berthing. Polyurethane coating skin not only increases energy dissipation efficiency via the foam core but also provides high abrasion resistance for long life span. Shape and size of Jerryborg Marine workboat fendering system are cusotmized according to technical drawings, energy calculation from clients.
Why Choose Jerryborg Marine Workboat Fendering Systems?
Jerryborg Marine provides lightweight and strong customized marine foam fenders for fast-moving light workboats, including tenders, unmanned systems, heavy RIBs, fast rescue vessels, research and survey boats, and all-weather lifeboats. These fenders are designed with the following key features:
Light Weight and Cost Effective
- Applying light weight foam material as fender core, Our workboat fender system offers an outstanding low weight alternative to traditional rubber fenders. The foam workboat fenders are 12 times lighter than conventional rubber fenders. Besides that, the light weight fenders also lead to significant fuel cost reduction.
Superior Collision Resistance Performance
- Our foam workboat fenders are designed to provide maximum impact resilience so that shock loads are properly absorbed, so that sensitive equipment, such as electronics and hydraulic drive systems, are protected from severe impacts, reducing or even preventing damage to the possible failure of systems because of collisions.
Ultra Strong and Extremely Durable
- Our fender systems are ultra strong by applying protective polyurethane elastomer skin which is five times more wear resistant than conventional rubber material. They are specially designed for heavy duty operations and therefore extremely durable. Made of closed cell foam core, Our fenders will not absorb water even though the skin is penetrated.
Perfect Mix of Composite Materials
- The fender system can be improved contact area and is highly adaptable to the hull shape and intended vessel usage through adjusting the parameters of the different materials. proprietary compounds are used to achieve the best product features for our fender systems.High elongation and break strength and durability are key words of the composite material fenders.
Trendy Designs and Various Forms
- The fenders can be made in one piece at any shape and length up to 30m (longer upon request) according to a 2D cad, 3D cad or template from clients. The seamless corners and customized fit give our fenders a sleek appearance. Jerryborg Marine offer different top-coats and the possibility for logo’s to be printed on the fender.
Adaptable Solutions and Multi Colors
- Different damping characteristics can be combined in one fender system. Each design is adapted to the vessel shape and its usage. The preferred way of fittings cam be bonded to the hull by fastest and easiest method. Besides various existing alternatives and mounting types, Jerryborg Marine can also develop a customized fender in a wide range of colors for each application.
Composition of Workboat Fendering Systems
Bow Fenders
Bow fenders are designed to protect the front of the boat. They are manufactured exactly as per the shape of the front shapes, sizes and outlines. The ends of the bow fender can be angled, tilted, snapped, reduced in diameter, or tapered. If it is necessary, cuff and spigot joints (Male/Female) also can be customized.
Curved Fenders
As part of a complete fender system, curved foam fenders may include a socket-and-plug for round sections or straight ends for a “Delta” type section. Single-unit curved fenders can be customized to reinforce and protect the vessel’s shoulders and rear corners during frequent side berthing operations.
Straight Fenders
These straight fenders are the modular design located between the bow curved and aft corner fenders, acting as a further protection to the boat hull. The straight fenders are often made with a lower foam density as their role to save the weight of whole fender system.
Rear/Stern Fenders
Rear fenders are equipped with a solid and strong hose at both ends in their center, passing through a safety wire. They are usually parked in the corner of the boat or have an L-shaped design with a transom, partial or continuous. The L-shaped design is recommended to protect the rear corners as the boat leaves the mooring position.
