Reinforced Inflatable Twin Eye Fender Ø 15 cm - White and Black

Boating enthusiasts and professionals buy such equipment in order to protect the boat's board from damage during docking to the pier. It is placed as a protective buffer between the walls of the docks and the ship's hull, this saves from serious damage to the side coating from shock and friction. It is also used in a number of other cases, such as passing through narrow channels and marinas crowded with boats, joint mooring next to another vessel or during locking.

The fender is provided with an air filling valve and a thickened chamber to maintain an internal pressure of 0.15 bar at 20°C. After filling, it is necessary to check the stability of the pressure every couple of years if it is stored in a permanently ready state for use. For many, this is convenient, because cylindrical fenders have more compact dimensions, unlike spherical fenders.

The reinforced fender has two eyes at the ends so that it can be placed both horizontally and hung vertically - in this case it is worth making sure that the lower end does not float in the water and it is better to fasten the fender with the valve up. Shipmasters usually have an assortment of these devices of various types and sizes to ensure that both sides, stern and bow are protected.
