Each rubber fender has its own different characteristics and advantages as well as the scope of application. Now I will introduce it to you.

Cylindrical rubber fender: It has features with low reaction force, small surface pressure, and reasonable energy absorption; When berthing, it is highly adaptable to the roll and pitch of the ship, not affected by the size of the ship. And it is widely used for installation and maintenance, especially suitable for vintage piers.

DA-type rubber fender: It has features with high energy absorption and low reaction force characteristics; Products have higher stress dispersion and long service life; Defence plate at front set can reduce surface pressure; It has complete specifications and different kinds of installation methods; It’s easy to replace.

Semi-circular (D type) rubber fender: It has features with moderate reaction force and higher energy absorption than cylinder type; It’s easy to install; Due to its small width at the bottom, it is especially suitable for framed wharf and shipboard installation.

Drum rubber fender: It has features with low reaction force and high energy absorption; Surface pressure is below 25 tons/m2; Lean compression and mechanical properties reduce less; Small rubber fenders: It has features with  low reaction force and high energy absorption; It's convenient to install;  It's generally suitable for large and medium-sized wharf.

DO-type rubber fenders: Here are features. Reactive energy absorption is higher than D-shaped fenders; installation strength and service life are greatly improved compared to D-shaped fenders; It’s applicable to framed wharf. Arched (V-shaped) rubber fenders:  It has features with moderate reaction force and high energy absorption; It is installed firmly and easy to use, Suitable for all types of docks.


Each type of rubber fender has different characteristics, and their range of use has a strong use of functions. The above-mentioned products are often used in our lives. We hope these products introduced by us in the following days can help everyone to use.
