24 Inch Inflatable Ship Mooring Pick Up Buoy Plastic Anchor Mooring Buoys

Foam mooring buoys are in service for inland waterways and offshore instead of traditional steel mooring buoys.

The cylindrical mooring buoy is one kind of representative mooring buoy. The cylindrical mooring buoys can be supplied in chain-through type, or equipped with pad-eye, crucifix, quick release hook, and maker or navigation equipment. Other varieties of end fittings are available to suit every case application. All end fittings are made of galvanized or painted steel to resist seawater corrosion.

Application for commercial mooring buoys are offshore and remote mooring, temporary mooring of vessels in a port, dock or harbour, additional mooring for large vessels on berthing/mooring dolphins and longer term mooring for infrequently used vessels.

Commercial barrel mooring buoy is one kind of representative mooring buoy. This commercial mooring buoy has a barrel shape with chain through, handling crucifix, modular type.

The steelwork construction through the buoy’s middle vertically. It can be supplied with handling crucifix an chain-through design. The barrel mooring buoys are constructed by resilient closed cell polyethylene/EVA foam around the inner central steelwork, covered by polyurethane (PU) other skin. The resilient closed cell polyethylene/EVA foam core guarantees self-fendering and unsinkable even in case of damage. And self-colored polyurethane elastomer skin is resistant to abrasion and ultraviolet ray degradation.

For extreme service environments, the polyurethane elastomer skin can be reinforced by nylon to protective coating has higher tear strength, making the buoy long-lasting and virtually maintenance-free.
