SUPER
CONE
FENDERS
Super Cones are the latest
generation of ‘cell’ fender, with
optimal performance and efficiency.
The conical body shape makes
the SCN very stable even at large
compression angles, and provides
excellent shear strength. With
overload stops the Super Cone
is even more resistant to over-
compression.
Features
B Highly efficient geometry
B No performance loss even at large
berthing angles
B Stable shape resists shear
B Wide choice of rubber compounds
Applications
B General cargo berths
B Bulk terminals
B Oil and LNG facilities
B Container berths
B RoRo and cruise terminals
B Parallel motion systems
B Monopiles and dolphins

PARALLEL
MOTION
FENDERS
Parallel Motion technology can
reduce reaction forces by up to 60%
compared with traditional designs.
The panel always remains vertical
but can cope with large berthing
angles – even at 20° there is usually
no loss in energy absorption.
Features
B Ultra-low reaction
B Non-tilt frontal panel
B No performance loss at large
berthing angles
B Easy and fast to install
B Minimal maintenance
Applications
B RoRo and fast ferry berths
B LNG and tanker terminals
B Naval facilities
B High tidal zones
B Monopile or ‘soft’ structures
Increasing energy,
reducing reaction
By using two Super Cones
back-to-back, the deflection
and energy both increase
whilst reaction forces stay low.
Reduced loads compared to
conventional fenders mean
less stress in the structure,
allowing smaller piles and less
concrete to be used.
As Parallel Motion Fenders
are mostly preassembled
in the factory, installation is
simple and fast. Maintenance
is minimal too – contributing
to the low service life cost of
Parallel Motion technology.

UNIT
ELEMENTS
Unit Elements are high-performance,
PIANC Type Approved modular rubber
fenders. Elements are versatile
and can be combined in unlimited
combinations of length and direction.
The simplest Unit Element system
is the UE-V fender, with pairs of
legs and a UHMW-PE non-marking
shield. For heavy duty applications
Unit Elements are combined with a
steel panel (frame) which can cope
with belting, bow flares, low hull
pressures and high tides.

MV
ELEMENTS
MV-elements are the foundation
of many fender systems. These
modular units are compression
moulded from a high performance
polymer which resists attack from
ultraviolet light, ozone and immersion
in seawater for long service life and
low maintenance.
Available in a full range of sizes,
the geometry of the MV-element has
been optimised for maximum energy
absorption per unit volume of rubber
combined with a low reaction force.
Fully encapsulated steel mounting
plates are vulcanised inside the
MV-element to allow easy fixing.
Bolts are located centrally on the
base flanges to reduce stresses,
but being recessed into pockets
the fixings are well protected from
damage.
Features
B Modular design system
B Many standard sizes
B High performance geometry
B Recessed fixings
B Long life, low maintenance
Applications
All vessel types which use the
following systems:
B Fender piles
B V-fenders
B Multiple fenders
B Pivot pillars
B Parallel Motion (Torsion Arm)

Fender Evolution
Ships have grown larger – so have the demands on fenders. A century ago MV-element
timber (1st Generation) was cheap and worked adequately for the small
vessels of the day. Old tyres (2nd Generation) were abundant and softer but
required expensive maintenance and absorbed little energy.
Cylindricals (3rd Generation) were the first purpose designed fenders,
gaining popularity some 50 years ago, but inefficient use of rubber and low
performance by today’s standards makes them costly. Arch and simple V-fender
buckling fenders (4th Generation) had better performance and integrated the
rubber with steel fixing plates.
System fender
Modular Design
MV-elements are modular so can be installed horizontally or vertically, close
together or further apart, with the ‘V’ facing towards or away from the panel.
‘A’ and ‘B’ compounds can be mixed or different lengths used – allowing
almost limitless permutations and giving the designer greater control on how
an MV-system behaves when impacted.

V-FENDERS
V-fenders fulfil the need for a simple,
and maintenance-free fender system
with high performance and a robust
design at low costs. All V-fenders use
one or several pairs of MV-elements
and a front shield. The shield is a
structural component of the fender,
directly bolted to the MV-element
and easily able to withstand constant
use in busy harbours.
The UHMW-PE face is also very
gentle on ships. It will conform to
the contours of the hull, will not
mark paint (unlike rubber) and does
not spark. UHMW-PE has very low
friction which reduces stresses in
the V-fenders and fixings.

COMPOSITE
FENDERS
Composite fenders* are composites
of rubber for resilience and UHMW-
PE for low-friction and wear resistant
properties. The two materials are
bonded with a special vulcanising
method which is stronger and more
reliable than a mechanical joint.
Composite fenders are used
where the simplicity of extrusions are
required but with lower shear forces.

FENDER
BARS
Fender Bars are available in three
different versions:
ML Fender Bars
The ML Fender Bar is intended for
heavy duty applications – everything
from ferry berths to bumpers on
barges. The vulcanised internal
steel plate provides very strong
fixing points and reduces bending
moments in the bolts.
Delta PU Bars
The Delta PU Bar meets the
challenges of berthing light craft with
aluminium or GRP hulls by combining
high performance and low friction
properties in a competitively priced
unit. Available in highly visible, non-
marking colours, the Delta PU Bar
can also improve safety or identify
berths and danger areas.

RAMP

PROTECTORS
Ramp and Cope Protectors are
special wedge-shaped rubber
elements which are fitted together to
form a flexible extension to steel and

a high friction surface that prevents
slipping.

SHEAR
FENDERS
Shear Fenders are unique because
they have a linear load-deflection
characteristic in shear but remain
stiff in compression to support heavy
loads. Their simple concept makes
Shear Fenders easy to install and
ideal for low energy applications. The
top and bottom steel plates are fully
encased in rubber which protects
them from corrosion and minimises
maintenance.
Piles and simple frontal panels
are often used in conjunction with
Shear Fenders. Movement in shear
should be limited by chains or
other mechanical stops to prevent
overload.

HYDRO-
PNEUMATIC
FENDERS
Submarines and other vessels which contact fenders
below waterline require a unique solution. Hydro-
pneumatic fenders are specially adapted to this
application. The fender body is partially water-filled,
then pressurised with air and ballasted to make it stand
vertically. Fender draft and performance can be tuned by
altering the water:air ratio and inflation pressure.

WHEEL
FENDERS
Wheel fenders are widely used
on exposed corners to help ships
manoeuvre into berths and narrow
channels such as locks and dry-dock
entrances. The main axle slides
on bearings and the wheel reacts
against back rollers to provide
high energy and minimal rolling
resistance, whilst the stainless
steel and composite Trelleborg
Orkot® bearings are almost zero
maintenance.

GUARD®
SeaGuard fenders can be deployed
floated or suspended, against a quay wall
or for ship-to-ship operations. SeaGuard
fenders suit all sites with small or large
tidal changes. They also work just as well
on new or old structures.
Hull pressures are very low, making
SeaGuard fenders gentle on soft-skinned
ships. The skin is very tough but also
non-marking, even against white-hulled
yachts and cruise liners.
Low maintenance comes as standard
because the polyurethane elastomer is
highly resistant to the effects of ozone
and ultra violet light. SeaGuard fenders
will never sink or deflate. Even at the
end of their first service life they can be
returned to the factory for refurbishment
before going back to work. L

SEA
CUSHION®
SeaCushion fenders are designed
for hard work. The superior grade of
foam core, an extra tough skin plus
chain-tyre net make SeaCushions
the most rugged floating fender on
the market.
This means SeaCushions are
perfect for the most demanding
applications: open water ship-to-ship
operations, offshore structures or
anywhere needing absolute fender
reliability. Whatever else happens,
SeaCushion will not deflate, burst or
sink.
Efficiency is excellent too. For the L
same energy, SeaCushion fenders
have lower reactions than pneumatic
types. Hull pressures are very low
too at just 172kN/m2 for STD-grades
(even less for LR-grades) – well within
PIANC guidelines for LNG vessels. Overall

DONUT
FENDERS
Donut Fenders are an effective
solution for simple berthing dolphins,
guiding and turning structures. The
buoyant Donut floats up and down a
single tubular pile and freely rotates
to help align or redirect ships.
The internal casing has long
lasting, low-friction bearings which
need minimal maintenance. The
foam is unsinkable and cannot
burst or deflate. The Donut skin is
durable polyurethane reinforced with
continuous nylon filaments.
Donut Fenders are custom
designed for every application. They
can have supplementary buoyancy to overall diameter
present a raised contact face. The
body can be additionally protected
with SeaTimber rubbing strips to
cope with ferry beltings. Bright
colours are often used to improve
visibility and safety.

SEAFLOAT
SeaFloat® buoys are resilient
surface floats for inland waterways,
navigation channels and offshore
applications. Various types of
SeaFloat are available, each sharing
the same robust construction and
high performance materials.
They also offer significant
advantages over conventional steel
buoys. SeaFloat buoys are lighter
and easier to handle. They offer
better corrosion resistance. Being
foam filled, SeaFloats will never sink
or burst. They can even withstand
collisions by passing vessels with
little risk of damage.

SEAFLOAT
Built to last
Reinforced elastomer skin
SeaFloat buoys have a nylon filament reinforced
polyurethane skin which has excellent resistance to water,
oil, ice, strong sunlight and abrasive surfaces. It remains
flexible even at -40°C (-40°F) making it suitable for
Tropical or Arctic operations.
Energy absorbing
The SeaFloat buoy absorbs impact energy so colliding
vessels will not damage the buoy or themselves.
Unsinkable foam
Only closed-cell foams are used in SeaFloat buoys. The
closed-cell matrix of the foam means it does not absorb
water even if cut or damaged. This makes SeaFloat buoys
impossible to sink.
Permanent colours
The polyurethane skin is pigmented through its entire
thickness, so colours will not wear off and will never
need repainting. A wide choice of bright colours can help
improve safety and identification.
Quality
SeaFloats must be reliable. We closely monitor all raw
materials and manufacturing processed from start to
finish for a highly dependable, long lasting product. At the
end of their service lives, most buoys can be returned to
the factory where they can be remanufactured ‘as good
as new’.

UHMW-PE
FACINGS
Trelleborg FQ1000 ultra high
molecular weight polyethylene
(UHMW-PE) is the first choice
material for facing steel fender
panels and other heavy duty
applications. It combines very
low friction with excellent impact
strength and a wear resistance much
better than steel.
Most popular is FQ1000-DS
which is ‘double-sintered’ and work-
hardened for extra durability. The
standard colour is black, but if other
colours are needed then FQ1000-V
‘virgin’ grade also comes in yellow,
white, grey, blue, green and red.
FQ1000 UHMW-PE materials are
compounded to resist ozone and UV
radiation. They do not degrade or rot
and are easily recycled at the end of
their useful service life.
Features
B Very low friction coefficient Relative Abrasion
B Excellent abrasion resistance
B UV and ozone resistant
B Does not rot, split or crack
B 100% recyclable

SLIDING
FENDERS
HD-PE Sliding Fenders are the ideal
alternative to timber facings with
the added advantage of low-friction
and better wear properties. HD-PE
does not split or decay and is totally
resistant to borers.
Environmentally friendly, HD-PE
can be used instead of tropical
hardwoods, lasts much longer, and
can be fully recycled at the end of its
useful life.

SEAPILE® &
SEATIMBER®
SeaPile and SeaTimber are advanced
composite plastics with superior
properties to timber, steel and
concrete for many marine structures
and applications.
They can withstand heavy impacts
by absorption of energy through
recoverable deflection. SeaPile and
SeaTimber never rot, corrode or
decay. They are impervious to marine
borers, yet are totally non-polluting.
Manufactured from a recycled
plastic matrix with unique glass fibre
reinforcement bars, the stiffness of
SeaPile and SeaTimber can be varied
and controlled to suit each project.
This makes the material the ideal
choice for fenders, to build marine
structures, and for coastal protection
without damaging the environment.

ECOBOARD®
Ecoboard structures outlast any wood or ‘wood flour’
plastic composites, lowering your costs for years to come.
Ecoboard is maintenance-free and needs zero care, and
because Ecoboard doesn’t deteriorate even in extreme
environments, the ongoing cost of treating and repairing
materials becomes a thing of the past.
Ecoboard is durable and versatile. The SR and SF
grades are both based on the same 100% recycled and
carefully graded polyethylene which is non-toxic and
stable. Whether strengthened with chopped glass fibres
(SF) or with high performance glass fibre rebars (SR),
Ecoboard comes in many standard and custom sections
to suit light, medium and heavy duty applications.
Ecoboard looks great too. With a choice of natural
or textured finishes in popular UV-stabilised colours,
designers can be confident that their Ecoboard structures
will stay looking good for decades to come – no cracking
or chipping, no warping or corrosion, no mould or decay.
And if that still isn’t enough to convince you to use
Ecoboard for your next project then maybe Trelleborg’s 50
year limited warranty will.

TUG
FENDERS
Tug fenders must work harder, for
longer and under more extreme
conditions than any other fender
type. Tugs may be fitted with up to
four types of fender – each type
serving a particular application.
As many tugs become more
powerful, some exceeding 100t
bollard pull, choosing the right type,
size and arrangement of fenders
becomes critical.
When selecting fenders, designers
should consider: Cylindrical fenders Side beltings

TUG
CYLINDRICALS
Large cylindrical fenders are often
used as the primary pushing fenders
on the bow or stern of modern tugs.
Their round shape is ideal for working
with large bow flares (like container
ships), but are equally good for
pushing flat-sided vessels.
Tug Cylindricals come in diameters
to 1000mm and in very long
continuous or spigot-joined lengths.

Attachment
Smaller fenders (≤500mm diameter) are
usually fixed by a longitudinal chain through
the bore of the fender, connected to the hull
by turnbuckles to tension the chain. Larger
fenders often use supplementary chains or Chain Strap
straps around the fender.

lengths but can be pulled around the bow or R≥4 × øD R

Standard manufacturing and performance tolerances apply (see pages 12–36 to 12–39)
M-FENDERS
M-Fenders have a large and flexible
contact face which exerts a low
pressure during pushing operations.
The grooves provide extra grip
and the triple legs give a strong
attachment to the tug. M-Fenders
can also be fitted around tight
curves, whilst their relative low
weight adds to tug stability.

Originally developed by Trelleborg
Bakker, the W-Fender is one of the
most successful fenders for tugs
in the world today. It has a unique
‘open bore’ design which makes
installation very simple. The flexible

BLOCK
FENDERS
Block and Cube Fenders have a
traditional ‘keyhole’ profile which
is strong and ideal for heavy-duty
applications. There is a choice
of grooved or flat face fenders
depending on the required friction
levels. Where very low friction is
needed, Block and Cube Fenders can
also be made as Composite fenders
with integral UHMW-PE faces. This is
useful for tugs that operate in heavy
swell and storm conditions.

COMPOSITE
FENDERS
Composite fenders* combine
rubber for resilience and UHMW-PE
for low-friction and wear resistant
properties. The two materials are
bonded with a special vulcanising
method – stronger and more reliable
than a mechanical joint. Composite
fenders are used where the
simplicity of extrusions are required
but with lower shear forces.

Square and D-section extruded
profiles are widely used as beltings
on tugs and other workboats.
DC and SC fenders have a circular
bore for extra wall thickness and
durability. DD and SD fenders have a

FENDER
PANELS
Fender panels are just as important
as the rubber units on high
performance systems. That’s why
every panel is purpose designed
using structural analysis programs
and 3D CAD modelling for optimum
strength.
Fender panels distribute reaction
forces to provide low hull pressures
and cope with large tidal variations.
They can also be designed to resist
line loads from belted ships, or
even point loads in special cases.
Optional lead-in bevels reduce the
snagging risk, whilst brackets (where
required) provide highly secure
connection points for chains.
Closed box designs are used
almost exclusively – all fully sealed Specification and design

CHAINS AND
ACCESSORIES
Some fender systems need chains to
help support heavy components or to
control how the fender deflects and
shears during impact. Open link or
stud link chains are commonly used
and these can be supplied in several
different strength grades.
Compatible accessories like
shackles, brackets and U-anchors
are also available. The nominal
breaking load (NBL) of these items
is matched to chains of similar
capacity. Chains and accessories
are supplied galvanised as standard.
Chain brackets may also be supplied
in an optional painted finish.

BOLLARDS
Trelleborg bollards come in many
popular shapes and sizes to suit
most docks, jetties and wharves.
Standard material is spheroidal
graphite (commonly called
SG or ductile iron) which is both
strong and resistant to corrosion,
meaning Trelleborg bollards enjoy a
long and trouble free service life.
The shape of Trelleborg bollards
has been refined with finite element
techniques to optimize the geometry
and anchor layout. Even at full
working load, Trelleborg bollards
remain highly stable and provide a
safe and secure mooring.

HOOKS
Quick Release Hooks (QRH) enable
mooring lines to be quickly and
easily released, even under full load
conditions.
A variety of mounting options
exist for the quick release hook.
Typically a cast QRH base is used for
new installations. To upgrade older
facilities, fabricated hook bases
can be designed to suit existing
hold-down bolt patterns to replace
bollards or old QRHs. THM hooks can
also be retrofitted to existing bases
from other suppliers, considerably
reducing on-site civil works.

SmartDock® Laser
SmartDock® Laser uses a pair
of laser sensors to measure the
distance and angle of a docking ship
in the critical range of 200m to 0m
from the berthing line.
Lasers will function in poor
visibility including heavy rain and are
eye-safe to the highest FDA Class 1
standard.
The data provided to jetty
operators, pilots and ship masters is
used to prevent over-speed and large
angle approaches, allowing early
corrections to the manoeuvre long
before a potential accident situation
arises.
SmartDock® Laser can be
switched to drift-off when the ship is Options and upgrades
moored. At a preset distance from
the berthing line, alarms are raised
on the jetty and ship. On oil and gas
jetties this provides added protection
for the loading arms.

FENDER DESIGN
Fenders must reliably protect ships,
structures and themselves. They
must work every day for many years
in severe environments with little or
no maintenance.
As stated in the British
Standard†, fender design should
be entrusted to ‘appropriately
qualified and experienced people’.
Fender engineering requires an
understanding of many areas:
B Ship technology
B Civil construction methods
B Steel fabrications
B Material properties
B Installation techniques
B Health and safety
B Environmental factors
B Regulations and codes of practice

Ships
Ship design evolves constantly – shapes
change and many vessel types are getting
larger. Fenders must suit current ships and
those expected to arrive in the foreseeable
future.
Structures
Fenders impose loads on the berthing
structure. Many berths are being built in
exposed locations, where fenders can
play a crucial role in the overall cost of
construction. Local practice, materials
and conditions may influence the choice
of fender.
Berthing
Many factors will affect how vessels
approach the berth, the corresponding
kinetic energy and the load applied to the
structure. Berthing modes may affect the
choice of ship speed and the safety factor
for abnormal conditions.
M1100-S12-V1.2-EN
ENVIRONMENT
Typical berthing locations
Berthing structures are located in a variety of places from sheltered basins to unprotected, open waters. Local
conditions will play a large part in deciding the berthing speeds and approach angles, in turn affecting the type and size
of suitable fenders.
Non-tidal basins
With minor changes in water
level, these locations are usually
sheltered from strong winds,
waves and currents. Ship sizes
may be restricted due to lock
access.
Tidal basins
Larger variations in water level
(depends on location) but still
generally sheltered from winds,
waves and currents. May be used
by larger vessels than non-tidal
basins.
Coastal berths
Maximum exposure to
winds, waves and currents. River berths
Berths generally used by Largest tidal range (depends on site),
single classes of vessel with greater exposure to winds, waves
such as oil, gas or bulk. and currents. Approach mode may be
restricted by dredged channels and
by flood and ebb tides. Structures on
river bends may complicate berthing
manoeuvres.
M1100-S12-V1.2-EN
STRUCTURES
The preferred jetty structure can influence the fender design and vice versa. The type of structure depends on local
practice, the geology at the site, available materials and other factors.
Selecting an appropriate fender at an early stage can have a major effect on the overall project cost. Below are some
typical structures and fender design considerations.
Open pile jetties B Simple and cost-effective B Low reaction reduces pile
sizes and concrete mass
B Good for deeper waters
B Best to keep fixings above
B Load-sensitive
piles and low tide
B Limited fixing area for fenders
B Suits cantilever panel designs
B Vulnerable to bulbous bows
Dolphins B Common for oil and gas terminals B Few but large fenders
B Very load-sensitive B Total reliability needed
B Flexible structures need careful B Low reactions preferred
design to match fender loads
B Large panels for low hull
B Structural repairs are costly pressures need chains etc
Mass structures B Most common in areas with small tides B Keep anchors above low tide
B Fender reaction not critical B Care needed selecting fender
spacing and projection
B Avoid fixings spanning pre-cast and
in situ sections or expansion joints B Suits cast-in or retrofit anchors
Sheet piles
B Quick to construct B Fixing fenders direct to piles
difficult due to build tolerances
B Mostly used in low corrosion regions
B Keep anchors above low tide
B In situ concrete copes are common
B Care needed selecting fender
B Can suffer from ALWC (accelerated
spacing and projection
low water corrosion)

BERTHING ENERGY
The kinetic energy of a berthing ship needs to be absorbed by a suitable fender system and this is most commonly
carried out using well recognised deterministic methods as outlined in the following sections.
EN = 0.5 × M × VB2 × CM × CE × CC × CS
Where,
EN = Normal berthing energy to be absorbed by the fender (kNm)
M = Mass of the vessel (displacement in tonne) at chosen confidence level.*
VB = Approach velocity component perpendicular to the berthing line† (m/s).
CM = Added mass coefficient
CE = Eccentricity coefficient
CC = Berth configuration coefficient
CS = Softness coefficient
* PIANC suggests 50% or 75% confidence limits (M50 or M75) are appropriate to most cases.
†
Berthing velocity (VB) is usually based on displacement at 50% confidence limit (M50).

CORROSION PREVENTION
Paint coatings
ISO EN 12944 is a widely used international standard defining the durability of corrosion protection systems in various
environments. The C5-M class applies to marine coastal, offshore and high salinity locations and is considered to be the
most applicable to fenders.
The life expectancy or ‘durability’ of coatings is divided into three categories which estimate the time to first major
maintenance:
The table gives some typical C5-M class paint systems which provide high durability in marine environments. Note that
coal tar epoxy paints are not available in some countries.

NDFT = Nominal dry film thickness anticorrosive pigments CTE = 2-pack coal tar epoxy
Zn (R) = Zinc rich primer EP = 2-pack epoxy
Design considerations
Other paint systems may also satisfy the C5-M requirements but in choosing any coating the designer should carefully
consider the following:
B Corrosion protection systems are not a substitute for poor design details such as re-entrant shapes and corrosion traps.
B Minimum dry film thickness >80% of NDFT (typical)
B Maximum film thickness <3 × NDFT (typical)
B Local legislation on emission of solvents or health & safety factors
B Application temperatures, drying and handling times
B Maximum over-coating times
B Local conditions including humidity or contaminants
M1100-S12-V1.2-EN
CORROSION PREVENTION
Galvanising
Hot-dip galvanising is the process of coating steel parts with a
zinc layer by passing the component through a bath of molten
zinc. When exposed to sea water the zinc acts as an anodic
reservoir which protects the steel underneath. Once the zinc is
depleted the steel will begin to corrode and lose strength.
Galvanising thickness can be increased by:
Stainless steels
Pitting Resistance Galling
Stainless steel performance in seawater varies according Galling or ‘cold welding’ affects threaded stainless

Chromium (Cr), Molybdenum (Mo) and Nitrogen (N) The protective oxide layer of the stainless steel gets

The pitting resistance equivalent number (PREN) is a and welding of the threads. After galling, seized fasteners

most common formula for PREN is: to be cut out and replaced.
To avoid this problem, always apply anti-galling
PREN = Cr + 3.3Mo + 16N compounds to threads before assembly. If these are
unavailable then molybdenum disulfide or PTFE based
lubricants can be used.
Cr and Mo are major cost factors for stainless steel.
A high PREN material will usually last longer but cost
more.

RUBBER PROPERTIES
All Trelleborg rubber fenders are made using the highest quality Natural Rubber (NR) or Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR)
based compounds which meet or exceed the performance requirements of international fender recommendations,
such as PIANC and EAU. Trelleborg can also make fenders from other NR/SBR compounds or from materials such as
Neoprene, Butyl Rubber, EPDM and Polyurethane.
Different manufacturing processes such as moulding, wrapping and extrusion require certain characteristics from the
rubber. The tables below give usual physical properties for fenders made by these processes which are confirmed during
quality assurance testing.* All test results are from laboratory made and cured test pieces. Results from samples taken
from actual fenders will differ due to the sample preparation process – please ask for details.
Moulded fenders
* Material property certificates are issued for each different rubber grade on all orders for SCN Super Cone, SCK Cell Fender, Unit
Element, AN/ANP Arch, Cylindrical Fender, MV and MI Elements. Unless otherwise requested at time of order, material certificates
issued for other fender types are based on results of standard bulk and/or batch tests which form part of routine factory ISO9001
quality procedures and are for a limited range of physical properties (tensile strength, elongation at break and hardness).
† Dynamic fatigue testing is optional at extra cost.
‡ Grade 0 = no cracks (pass). Grade 1 = 10 or fewer pinpricks <0.5mm long (pass). Grades 2–10 = increasing crack size (fail).

TESTING PROCEDURES
Trelleborg testing procedures for ‘solid-type’ rubber fenders comply with PIANC ‘Guidelines for the Design of Fender
Systems: 2002: Appendix A: Section 6: Verification/Quality Assurance Testing’. The Constant Velocity (CV) test method
is used for SCN, SCK, UE, AN/ANP and Cylindrical Fenders. MV and MI fenders are tested using the Decreasing Velocity
(DV) method on the dedicated Trelleborg high speed test press. All other fender types are tested on special request.
Notes
1 Standard PIANC Verification Testing of 10% of fender order (rounded up to the nearest unit) is included within the
price for the fender types listed. Additional tests, third-party witnessing and special procedures will incur extra
charges. For load-sensitive structures, a single break-in deflection for all fenders with reaction of 100t or more is
included in the fender price if notified at the time of order.
2 Rated Performance Data (RPD) is defined in the relevant product sections of this catalogue.
3 All measuring equipment shall be calibrated and certified accurate to within ±1% in accordance with ISO or equivalent
JIS or ASTM requirements. Calibration shall be traceable to national/international standard and shall be performed
annually by an accredited third party organization.
4 Pass criteria as defined by PIANC ‘Guidelines for the Design of Fender Systems: 2002: Appendix A’. Deflection is not
considered to be a pass/fail criterion by PIANC. Non-compliant units will be clearly marked and segregated.

To be meaningful, Type Approval testing should be monitored and witnessed by accredited third-party inspectors such as
Germanischer Lloyd. After successful Type Approval testing, the manufacturer should publish Rated Performance Data
(RPD) for their fenders along with correction factor tables for different velocities, temperatures and compression angles.

PASS CRITERIA
Verification testing (or quality control testing) is carried out to prove the performance of fenders for each project in
accordance with catalogue RPD or other customer-specified values.
Samples from the project (usually 10% of the total quantity in each size and grade) are tested and the results obtained
are adjusted if necessary using the correction factor tables for initial impact speed and temperature.
where,
RVT = reaction from verification testing
RRP = customer’s required reaction
EVT = energy from verification testing
ERP = customer’s required energy
VF = velocity factor for actual test speed
TF = temperature factor for actual test
