Core Benefits
Sling Type foam fenders are specialized fender manufactured by HENGER. They are often used to meet the needs of ship docking, harbor operations, and marine facility protection. Compared with inflatable fenders, Sling Type foam fenders have better energy absorption and lower reaction force, and are widely used due to their excellent energy absorption, durability and convenience.
Lightweight and flexible, easy to transport and install: Compared with traditional fenders, Sling Type fenders have no steel structure. As a result, it is lightweight and easy to install, making it ideal for temporary and flexible operations. In contrast to compression fenders, solid foam-filled polyurethane fenders float and can be installed in a damp-free position.
Excellent energy absorption: Highly efficient absorption of energy during impact with low reaction forces. This protects the ship and the marina from damage.
Low maintenance costs: the use of a closed EVA foam core inside the fender means that no maintenance is required to meet the protection requirements. Compared with inflatable fenders, there is no need to check and inflate the fenders during use, so they are maintenance-free. The fenders can be painted in various colors, and the products are smooth and beautiful, with obvious markings.
Wide range of applications
Sling Type Foam Filled Fender is one of the most versatile types of fenders in marine protective equipment as it can be used in a wide variety of scenarios.
Ship to Ship (STS): It can play an extremely important role in situations where two vessels need to work side by side. Specifically, it provides stable impact protection. When the two ships in the operation process may be due to various factors (such as water flow, wind and waves and other influences caused by the relative sway) and the risk of collision, the fender can effectively buffer the impact of the collision, thus avoiding damage to the hull of the ship due to the collision, a strong protection of the ship in the side-by-side operation of the safety and integrity of the period.
Ship-to-shore berthing (STB): This fender is also indispensable in the operation process of ship berthing. It can play a protective role for the dock facilities, preventing the ship from colliding with the dock and causing damage to the dock due to speed control, water flow and other factors when berthing. At the same time, for the ship itself, it can also provide effective protection to ensure that the berthing operation can be carried out safely and smoothly, to avoid scratches, dents and other damage to the surface of the ship.
Temporary or emergency use: The lightweight design of the fender gives it a unique advantage in temporary or emergency situations. In some unexpected maritime situations (such as sudden failure of the ship needing emergency berthing, temporary docking for repair, etc.), it can be quickly deployed, that is, it can be quickly installed and put into use, to provide the necessary protection for the ship and related facilities in time, to meet the needs of emergency scenarios for the protection of the equipment for a quick response.
