FAQ

1. What types of docks are SA Type Fenders suitable for?

They are ideal for container terminals, liquid cargo docks, bulk cargo berths, and inland wharves.
2. How many years will this fender last? Soaked in seawater long-term, will it deteriorate faster than ordinary fenders?

This is one of the advantages of the SA-B type fender: exceptionally long service life. It uses a special anti-aging rubber compound designed for harsh marine environments, with added components to resist seawater corrosion and strong sunlight. Under normal use, its design life far exceeds that of ordinary fenders. You just need to treat it like other fenders, simply inspecting the surface once or twice a year for any abnormal deep cracks or cuts, and checking if the fixing bolts are loose. Many customers report its excellent durability, effectively resisting long-term seawater immersion and UV exposure.
3. How to choose the right fender size?

Depending on vessel size, dock structure, and berthing frequency, We offers professional advice and customization services.
4. How do I know which size of SA-B fender is right for my dock? We mainly berth cargo ships from 5000 to 10000 tons.

Choosing the size mainly depends on the size of the ships that usually call at your dock and how fast they approach. For the 5000 to 10000-ton cargo ships you mentioned, we have very mature sizing experience. You don't need to calculate complex numbers yourself. Just tell us your main vessel types, general berthing practices, and the water depth at your dock face. Based on this, we will recommend the most suitable models from our SA-B fender standard size library (such as the commonly used SA-B 800 or SA-B 1000), explaining why it's the right choice to handle the most common berthing situations at your facility.
5.Our dock has always used ordinary cylindrical fenders. What's so good about this “Super Arch” type, and is it worth the extra cost to switch?

You've asked the key question. Simply put, the SA-B type (Super Arch) is like an “upgraded version” of ordinary fenders. Its biggest benefit is that it's more impact-resistant and better protects the dock. When a large ship berths, its unique double-arch body acts like a spring, more softly and powerfully “absorbing” the impact force while pushing back less against the ship and dock. This means your dock concrete structure is less likely to be damaged, and the ship's hull and paint are safer. Although the initial purchase price is higher, it makes your dock last longer and require fewer repairs, making it a more cost-effective and worry-free choice in the long run.
