Chain System.
Most fender systems with steel panels require chains for weight support and to limit tension and shear in the rubber unit.
A typical SFT chain system consists of compatible items to allow optimal performance of the fender system. These are:
- Anchor bolts
- Brackets
- Washers & Washer Plates
- Bolts & Nuts
- Shackles
- Chain tensioner (recommended)
- Chain
Fixings
Only properly fixed fenders ensure worry free operation. SFT supplies anchors for new and existing concrete in different sizes, qualities and finishes.
