JettyGuard’s Element Fenders, also known as Leg Fenders, are a high-performance, modular fendering solution engineered for maximum versatility. These robust rubber elements form the core component of many fender systems, designed to be combined in various configurations to absorb berthing energy effectively. Their simple yet effective design provides a reliable and economical solution for a wide range of applications, especially where mounting space is limited or specific hull pressures must be managed.
Key Advantages
- Modular Design: Our Element Fenders can be bolted in single, double, or triple arrangements, either vertically or horizontally. This unparalleled modularity allows for the creation of a custom fender system perfectly tailored to your quay geometry and vessel traffic.
- High E/R Performance: Engineered for an excellent Energy Absorption to Reaction Force (E/R) ratio, these fenders effectively dissipate impact forces while minimizing stress on the berthing structure and vessel hull, ensuring safe mooring operations.
- Versatile Mounting: The system’s adaptability extends to its mounting options. Element Fenders can be used as a standalone solution or integrated with steel frontal panels and low-friction UHMW-PE face pads to create a comprehensive fender system with a large contact area.
- Extremely Durable: Manufactured from a high-abrasion-resistance rubber compound, our Leg Fenders are built to withstand the harshest marine environments, offering superior resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and seawater for a long and reliable service life.
Ideal for Ro-Ro berths, container quays, general cargo terminals, and pontoon protection, Element Fenders provide a robust and adaptable fendering solution. All JettyGuard fenders are manufactured in accordance with PIANC guidelines and undergo rigorous quality testing to guarantee performance and service life, delivering long-term value and operational safety for your facility.
