Fender: Application of Uhmwpe sheet in ship hull
Today we introduce the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fender, Fender is to prevent the impact of the ship and the dock caused by damage, with good impact performance. Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) can be used as a kind of chord plate to prevent the damage caused by the collision between the ship and the dock, and has good impact resistance, instead of the traditional steel chord plate, the major ports are widely used and all ports adopt these schemes.
The fender is made of 20mm steel plate in the vertical range of the freeboard deck to prevent the collision and damage of the Fender in the course of berthing or mooring. In order to prevent the damage caused by the collision between the ship and the dock when the ship docks, a kind of Fender with excellent impact resistance is needed to protect the ship, caused fender replacement times are particularly frequent, and ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fender to solve this problem.
