Marine Accessories Custom Barrel Mooring Buoys PE Floating Buoy

Barrel mooring buoy is one kind of representative mooring buoys. Barrel-type mooring buoy has a barrel shape.

The steelwork construction through the buoy’s middle vertically. It can be supplied with handling crucifix and 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.
