Marine Dock Yokohama Pneumatic Rubber Fender for Marine Boat Accessory
Floating pneumatic rubber fenders, also known as Yokohama fenders, are constructed from synthetic-cord-reinforced rubber sheets with compressed air inside. This design enables them to float on water and serve as effective shock absorbers between ships (ship-to-ship) or between ships and berthing structures during docking operations. All Doowin Marine Yokohama-type floating pneumatic rubber fenders are manufactured and tested to fully comply with ISO 17357 standards.
DOOWIN Marine, as a leading marine equipment manufacturer, announced the production of 4×9-meter Yokohama Pneumatic Fenders.
Developed through continuous R&D, these Yokohama Pneumatic fenders meet the needs of large-scale vessels and ports. They are made of high-quality natural rubber, ensuring excellent elasticity and durability. Tested to meet the ISO 17357 standard, they offer reliable performance.
Equipped with a tire net, which consists of car/truck tires and chains, the Yokohama pneumatic fenders gain extra protection against abrasion and external forces.
Our company provides these Yokohama pneumatic fenders at competitive prices. With central stock positions, we offer fast worldwide delivery.
These pneumatic rubber fenders are suitable for ship-to-ship and ship-to-port applications. We’re confident they’ll contribute to the marine industry’s safety and efficiency and look forward to global partnerships.
