About
The Roller Fender consists of an energy-absorbing elastomer unit mounted on a single rotating shaft. It incorporates maintenance-free bearings, typically made of stainless steel and composite materials. Housed within a steel casing, the unit rotates freely to ensure reliable performance. The primary function of Roller Fenders is to guide vessels, enabling smooth and safe passage.
Roller Fenders can be configured in a variety of ways to meet specific operational needs, including:
- Double or triple stacking to accommodate greater tidal variations
- Side-by-side installation for guiding vessels through narrow channels
- Angled mounting to match the flare angles of a vessel’s hull
While standard sizes are available, most projects require a custom design. ShibataFenderTeam welcomes your input to help us engineer the optimal type, size, and configuration of Roller Fender for your application.
