Marine Fender Selections

Marine rubber dock fenders are installed at jetties and ship terminals to protect the docks and ships from impact during mooring. Rubber fenders absorbs the energy from the ships. There are several aspects as to how to select the most suitable marine fender type and size.

• The size of ships that will use and berth at the docks. Keman Rubber Fender can support up to 100,000 DWT load.
• The type of structure of the ship terminals. It may be closed structure, semi closed structure or open structure.
• The berthing velocity of the vessels is also one of the most important aspect when choosing the most suitable rubber fender.
• Another thing that is important to check is the berthing angle of the vessels.
• Tides and water levels are also another thing that play into deciding the perfect rubber fender.

PT Kemenangan has an in-house team of designers and engineers to calculate and simulate dock fender selection even in most difficult scenarios.
