Floating foam-filled fenders are manufactured from a high-quality foam covered by a tough Polyurethane skin. The performance can be modified by changing the grades of foam. The closed cell structure of the foams used means that these fenders are virtually unsinkable and will keep functioning – even if damaged beyond viable repair. Foam-filled fenders can also be equipped with a chain and tire net for rough applications. These fenders also have a simple yet unique internal structure, which allows the shear loads to be absorbed by a through-chain arrangement terminating in end-shackles rather than the body of the fender itself. This has been engineered so that in the event of overload, any damaged components of this system can be replaced in isolation – as opposed to other foam fenders where the end-fittings form an integral part of the internal workings of the fender.
