Shape and Geometry

Shape and Geometry
The cylindrical shape of these fenders is a key feature. The circular cross - section provides uniform distribution of forces when a vessel makes contact. This means that the impact energy is spread evenly around the circumference of the fender, reducing the risk of concentrated stress points that could cause damage to either the fender or the structure it is protecting. The length of cylindrical fenders can vary widely, depending on the specific requirements of the installation. Longer fenders are often used in areas where larger vessels are expected, as they can provide a greater contact area and more effective protection.
Materials
Cylindrical fenders are typically constructed from high - quality materials that can withstand the harsh marine environment. Rubber is one of the most commonly used materials due to its excellent elasticity, resilience, and abrasion resistance. Natural rubber offers good shock - absorbing properties, allowing it to deform under impact and then return to its original shape. Synthetic rubbers, such as neoprene and polyurethane, are also popular. Neoprene has good resistance to oil, ozone, and sunlight, making it suitable for long - term exposure in the marine environment. Polyurethane, on the other hand, is known for its high strength and durability, making it ideal for applications where the fender will be subjected to heavy loads.
In some cases, cylindrical fenders may be reinforced with materials such as steel cords or fiberglass. These reinforcements add additional strength and stiffness to the fender, enabling it to handle higher impact forces without deforming or failing.

Initially established as Qingdao Luhang Marine Airbag Factory in 1988 and changed to Qingdao Luhang Marine Airbags and Fenders Co.,Ltd in 2011, Qingdao Luhang had been devoted itself to developing and manufacturing marine airbags and marine fenders for more than 2 decades.

The factory area is 56,000m² with building area of  21,000m². The company has registered capital of USD 3 million and fixed asset of USD1.2 billion. We have a full line of production equipment: rubber mixing machine, rubber roller machine, the China biggest vulcanization tanks, the biggest Press Inspection Machine, EVA foam processing machine, Foam shaping machines and SPUA spraying machine.

Through these years' development, we have full range of marine airbags and marine fenders:

Ship Launching Airbags for ship launching and docking in shipyards

Marine Salvage Airbags for salvaging sinked vessels or refloating objects from under water

Other Airbags for special usage

Pneumatic Rubber Marine Fenders for ships and docks berthing

Foam Filled Marine Fenders for ship and docks berthing

Fixed Dock Rubber Fenders for docks and wharfs

Marine Buoys

From the begginning we have been focusing on technological innovation. With a team of experienced technicans and engineers, we have developed some high tech marine products and got some petents. We have been approved as a supplier of Navy products. 

Quality is our life line. We provide service of “three guarantees” (returning, repairing and replacing) on all our products in case of any defects due to the problems of material,manufacturing, performance under conditions of normal operation and maintenance.
