Product Description
Arch fenders have become increasingly popular in recent years due to the unique features the fender offers. These fenders are manufactured from a single piece of rubber moulding, using a simple yet rugged design. This enables arch fenders to be very strong and hard wearing. The simple design also reduces the amount of maintenance needed, even after a period of heavy use.
The shape of the arch fenders also grants it unique properties. The base either side of the fender is attached to the desired surface, which enables the arch to compress and move while under pressure. This enables it to absorb greater impacts without warping and deterioration.
Please note: To manufacture this product we blend an amount of reclaimed materials with base polymers and fillers. This can cause minor surface deformations, blemishes and materials may be more odorous than normal. However, the product will still provide the same properties and perform to the same standard.
Available In Two Options
- Arch fenders with a rubber contact face
This format is perfect for general-purpose applications. The rubber face grants the fender with excellent high friction properties. This is used to greatly reduce any potential movements between the sea vessel and the wharf.
- Arch fenders with either UHMW-PE or steel pile head plate
The key feature of this particular arch fender is the replaceable head plate. The UHMW-PE plates are highly durable while also offering superb non-marking and low friction properties. This reduces any potential damage that may be done to both the sea vessel and the wharf. The non-marking properties in particular are desirable in marinas and other applications that are used by yachts and other private craft as they preserve the appearance of the vessel. The head plates can be easily replaced which also helps to increase the life expectancy of the fender itself.
