PRODUCT INFORMATION

Offshore Rubber Fenders, Inc. protects your platform, as well as your time and budget, with the uniquely engineered RotaFenderTM 120 rotating fender system.


 

The inside stainless steel rim of the RotaFenderTM 120 allows the fender to rotate around the main steel pipe, acting like an axle and causing the fender system to absorb and dissipate force upon impact.

 

sound fender system is critical to knowing that your offshore platform is well protected from the impacts of visiting vessels.  All the better is a system that also offers easy installation, easy maintenance, time and cost savings.

Offshore Rubber Fenders, Inc. answers the call with the RotaFenderTM 120, a unique patented rotating fender system.

It is expertly engineered and thoroughly tested to give you superior protection of your offshore platforms or other marine installations.  Its advanced yet simple construction integrates design ingenuity and a special rubber to provide a host of benefits including impact absorption, easy maintenance and installation, product durability, and economy.

Superior Resistance to Impact

RotaFenderTM 120 is a modular system made of circular rubber fenders.  Each unit is made of a rubber based on Butyl Elastomer and EPDM, offering mechanical properties highly resistant to compression, movement, and tear.  Upon impact, the fender rotates in the direction of the vessel's movement--thereby absorbing and dissipating the force of the vessel.  The result: maximized protection to your platform.

 

 

Superior Resistance to the Elements

RotaFenderTM 120 resists the harsh wear and tear of the elements as much as it does the impact of a vessel.  It is highly resistant to the harmful effects of sea water, oxygen, and ozone, thereby making RotaFenderTM 120 a robust protection system for your platform.

Easy Installation and Maintenance

The flexibility of RotaFenderTM 120's modular design allows you to create and adapt the system to your splash zone or particular project needs.  It can be installed without changing your existing hardware in the platform and allows for final adjustment of the fender in the splash zone.  And, you can add, remove or replace a single fender or a complete system in less time and less hassle than other systems.

Economy

The easy installation and easy maintenance of the RotaFenderTM 120 system means you save both time and money.
