Yokohama Pneumatic Fender

Pneumatic Fender (Yokohama Fender).

The Pneumatic Fender (Yokohama Fender) is an abrasion-resistant rubber fender filled with high pressure air. It can easily be deflated which allows simple and cost effective relocation and re-commissioning in other locations.

Pneumatic Fenders are supplied with two different inside pressure levels to cover a wide performance range. They are manufactured according to ISO 17357-1:2014. Pneumatic Fenders can be produced using different methods and each has its own advantages when compared correctly. The most common methods are molded and wrapped. Read more about the different manufacturing methods in our Pneumatic Fender Manual. Airbags should not be mixed up with Pneumatic Fenders, airbags are used for ship launching operations and thus serve a totally different purpose than Pneumatic Fenders.

Pneumatic Fenders are available in diameters ranging from 300 mm to 4,500 mm and lengths ranging from 500 mm to 9,000 mm, as well as special sizes.
All sizes are available as sling-type or with a heavy duty chain & tire net.
Standard colors are black and grey (Navy), other colors available upon request.

We supply as well a special hydropneumatic version for submarines. More details about Hydropneumatic Fenders.
