Aorunda is a reliable manufacturer and supplier of Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders. These products are a new generation of floating cushioning protection devices independently developed and produced by us. They are an upgraded product of traditional inflatable fenders. The products are made with high-quality rubber formulas and precision processes, providing stronger compression resistance, durability, airtightness, and corrosion resistance. They are ideal protective equipment for ports, ships, and offshore platforms.
Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders can be customized with a diameter of 0.3 meters to 3.5 meters and a length of 1 meter to 9 meters, covering the matching needs of small to large ships. The surface threaded structure can improve friction, disperse squeezing force, and comprehensively protect the hull and fender body. Contact Aorunda and we will offer factory direct solutions.
Product Advantages
1. Stronger performance
Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders are made of specially designed wear-resistant rubber strips, which are fully vulcanized and molded in one go. Their energy absorption and collision resistance are superior to ordinary inflatable fenders, and their performance does not deteriorate under inclined compression, resulting in a longer service life.
2. Do not damage the ship's hull
The surface threaded structure has flexible contact and will not scratch the paint surface and steel plate of the ship. It is particularly suitable for scenarios with high requirements for ship protection, such as refueling ships, and is superior to chain tire type protective fenders.
3. Easy installation
Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders supports chain hanging installation, which can be connected in series or parallel. It is flexible in movement, stable in fixation, and can be deployed quickly and efficiently on site.
4. Durable and economical
Wear resistant strips replace metal chains, reducing rust and wear, and lowering maintenance costs; The specifications can be customized according to needs, suitable for different ship types and dock conditions, with outstanding cost-effectiveness.
5. Sealed stability
Rib ‑ Tyre Rubber Fenders has excellent air tightness, stable air pressure for long-term use, anti-aging, seawater corrosion resistance, and adaptability to complex marine environment.
Application Scenarios
Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders are widely used in the following fields:
• Mooring protection for large bulk carriers, oil tankers, and container ships
Port terminals, breakwaters, and pier type wharf protection
• Protection of offshore platforms and floating facilities
• Refueling boats, yachts, and small and medium-sized vessels docking buffer
Ship to ship and ship to shore emergency berthing protection

Design core considerations
The selection and design of Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders should focus on:
1. Maximum energy absorption E
2. Fender reaction force R
3. Requirements for Ship Shore/Ship Ship Distance
4. Environmental conditions such as wind, waves, and seawater on site
5. Calculation formula for berthing kinetic energy: E=1/2 × ship tonnage × additional mass coefficient × berthing speed ² × eccentricity coefficient
Precautions For Use
1. Regularly check the appearance and air pressure of Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders, and replace the valve core every 6 months.
2. The contact area of the steel wire rope should be covered with a rubber tube to prevent sharp objects from piercing the fender.
3. The ropes and chains are firmly fixed, and the metal accessories are not loose or knotted.
4. Ensure that the fixtures and nuts are tightened during internal pressure debugging to prevent air leakage.
5. There should be no sharp protrusions on the contact surface to avoid damaging Rib Tyre Rubber Fenders.
Storage And Maintenance
1. For long-term storage, clean and dry first, fill with an appropriate amount of air pressure, and place in a dry, cool, and ventilated place.
2. Keep away from heat sources, acids, bases, oils, and organic solvents.
3. Do not stack or place heavy objects on the fender.
4. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong light to delay rubber aging.
