Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) dock fender pads are advanced marine protection systems designed to absorb impact energy and prevent damage to vessels, docks, and port structures. These fender pads are made from UHMWPE, a high-performance thermoplastic known for its exceptional durability, abrasion resistance, and low friction properties.
Superior Impact Resistance – Absorbs and dissipates energy from ship impacts, protecting both the vessel and dock structure.
High Abrasion Resistance – Withstands repeated friction from docking and mooring operations without significant wear.
Low Friction Coefficient – Reduces hull damage and allows smooth vessel movement during berthing.
Corrosion & Chemical Resistance – Unlike steel or rubber fenders, UHMWPE resists saltwater, oils, and chemicals, ensuring long-term performance.
Lightweight Yet Durable – Easier to install than traditional materials while maintaining structural integrity under heavy loads.
UV & Weather Resistant – Performs well in harsh marine environments without degrading.
