Optimized Energy Absorption with Low Reaction Force
The curved V-shaped design efficiently transforms kinetic impact energy into controlled deformation, minimizing reactive loads on dock structures. This ensures stable berthing for vessels of varying displacements, reducing structural fatigue and protecting both ships and port assets. The fender maintains consistent energy performance even after thousands of compression cycles.
Reinforced Rubber Compound for Superior Durability
Each fender is manufactured from premium-grade rubber blended with synthetic polymers for enhanced tear resistance, elasticity retention, and environmental protection. The compound formulation provides exceptional resistance to ozone, UV radiation, seawater, and aging, extending service life even in tropical or polluted marine atmospheres.
Compact Design and Easy Installation
Arch Fenders are lightweight and modular, allowing quick and secure installation on both flat and curved quay walls. Standard anchor bolts and galvanized steel plates provide strong attachment, while optional UHMW-PE face pads reduce friction and surface wear. This compact structure makes them ideal for retrofit or expansion projects with limited space.
Consistent Performance Across Temperature and Tidal Variations
The rubber’s stable elasticity ensures reliable performance in extreme climates—from sub-zero Arctic temperatures to high tropical humidity. Even under tidal movement, the fender maintains consistent energy absorption and compression recovery, ensuring long-term protection with minimal maintenance requirements.
Applications
Commercial Ports and Container Terminals
Provides reliable impact protection during frequent docking of cargo ships, bulk carriers, and container vessels. The arch shape ensures efficient energy distribution, protecting quay walls from repetitive berthing stresses.
Fishing Harbors and Small Craft Jetties
Ideal for smaller vessels requiring compact, cost-effective, and durable fendering solutions. Its flexible installation options make it perfect for wooden or concrete docks with variable draft conditions.
Industrial Shipyards and Offshore Support Facilities
Used for dry docks, repair berths, and supply bases where frequent vessel contact occurs. The fender’s high abrasion resistance and stable performance make it suitable for demanding operational cycles.

FAQ
1. How long does an Arch Rubber Fender typically last?
Depending on usage and environmental exposure, Arch Rubber Fenders generally last 10–20 years with proper maintenance.
2. Can Arch Fenders be customized for specific berth layouts?
Yes, fenders can be manufactured in various heights, lengths, and hardness grades to fit unique structural or tidal conditions.
3. Are additional face pads necessary?
For high-friction contact or steel-hulled vessels, UHMW-PE or rubber face pads are recommended to reduce abrasion and extend lifespan.
4. How should fenders be maintained?
Inspect visually every 6–12 months for surface wear or bolt loosening. Clean regularly and replace worn pads if equipped.
5. Does Hongruntong provide installation support?
Yes, we offer full engineering drawings, mounting hardware, and on-site supervision to ensure correct installation and performance.
