Marine Plastic Fender Pad is mainly made of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) or High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) materials, which has significant advantages over traditional wooden, steel, and rubber fender panels. The following are its main advantages:
Ten advantages of marine plastic fender pads:
- Super wear resistance
The service life is 3 to 7 times that of steel plates;
Even in frequent berthing, humid or dusty environments, it is not easy to wear. - Extremely low friction coefficient
The hull slides smoothly when in contact with the fender;
Effectively reduce berthing resistance and protect the ship and dock structure. - Good impact resistance
Can effectively disperse collision stress;
Resist high-frequency berthing or heavy ship impact. - Corrosion resistance, salt spray resistance, and seawater resistance
Strong resistance to acids, alkalis, salt, seawater, oils, etc.;
Can be used for a long time in corrosive environments such as seaports and petrochemical docks. - Anti-ultraviolet and anti-aging
It will not change color or powder even under the scorching sun;
It has an outdoor service life of more than 10 to 15 years. - Lightweight and easy to install
The density is only about 1/7 of that of steel;
Reduce transportation and installation costs and improve construction efficiency. - No coating and maintenance required
No anti-rust paint or paint maintenance is required;
Almost no maintenance is required during use, saving long-term operating costs. - No water absorption and anti-icing
The material itself does not absorb water;
It will not crack due to water absorption and freezing in a frozen environment. - Environmentally friendly and non-toxic
Does not release harmful substances;
Can be recycled and meet the requirements of green port construction. - Optional colors and customizable openings
Common colors: black, blue, green, red;
The size, shape and screw hole arrangement can be customized according to project requirements for easy replacement and installation.
