Our Keyhole Fenders with a flat face are the premier choice for protecting vessels and structures in demanding marine environments. Designed with a distinctive keyhole-shaped profile, these fenders excel at absorbing and dissipating high-impact energy, safeguarding tugboats, barges, and quay walls from damage during mooring and transit. The flat face provides a consistent, non-marking surface, ideal for a variety of vessel hulls.
Key Advantages
- Robust Protection: Engineered to withstand significant forces, making them a reliable alternative to W-fenders for heavy-duty operations.
- Durable Construction: Fabricated from a high-abrasion-resistance rubber compound, ensuring a long service life even with constant use and exposure to the elements.
- Simple Installation: The design incorporates two mounting holes, allowing for straightforward and secure vertical installation using fixing pins, which simplifies both initial setup and replacement.
- Versatile Application: While ideal for the bows and sterns of tugs and workboats, these fenders are also highly effective for protecting pontoons, jetties, and bridge sections.
Manufactured through extrusion or compression molding, our Keyhole Fenders meet rigorous quality standards. They can be supplied in specific lengths, with beveled ends upon request, and can even be curved to match the hull of a vessel, ensuring a perfect fit for your application. For specialized needs, they can be produced with a low-friction UHMW-PE surface layer.
