The Solid DS Fender, also known as a D-Series fender, is an essential component for safeguarding marine structures and vessels. Extrusion-molded from a high-performance, solid rubber compound, this fender is engineered to absorb berthing energy in moderate to heavy-duty applications. Its flat-backed D-profile is designed for direct, flush mounting against jetty walls, pontoons, or the hull of a workboat, providing a reliable protective barrier.
Key Advantages
- Robust Solid Design: Unlike hollow alternatives, our solid DS profile provides maximum durability and superior resistance to tearing, cutting, and high-impact forces, ensuring a long and reliable service life.
- Versatile Application: Ideal for a wide range of uses, from protecting wharf faces and loading bays to serving as primary fendering or belting on tugboats, barges, and pilot boats.
- Simple Installation: The flat rear face allows for easy and secure bolting directly onto most surfaces. We can supply fenders pre-drilled to your specifications, reducing on-site installation time and labor costs.
- High-Abrasion Rubber: Molded from a premium EPDM or SBR rubber compound, these fenders offer excellent resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and seawater, ensuring consistent performance in harsh marine climates.
Solid DS Fenders are an economical and effective choice for berths that handle ferries, fishing fleets, and various commercial workboats. They can be manufactured in a wide range of sizes and cut to specific lengths to meet precise project requirements. For seamless protection, ends can be chamfered or cut at an angle for corner installations. Contact JettyGuard to discover the ideal DS Fender solution for your facility.
