GD fenders are rubber fender profiles used for ports, ships, docks, vessels and marine structures. They help reduce impact, protect contact surfaces and provide practical side protection in berthing, docking and close-contact working areas.
YT Marine manufactures GD fenders based on available mold sizes and project installation requirements. The fender length, rubber material, hole position and installation details can be arranged according to drawings, samples, photos or working conditions.
What Is a GD Fender?
A GD fender is a molded rubber fender profile designed for marine protection applications. It can be installed on docks, ships, workboats, pontoons, vessel sides or other structures where rubber impact protection is required. The profile size is usually selected from existing mold options, while the final length and installation details can be matched to the project.
GD Fender for Port and Dock Applications
In port and dock applications, GD fenders can be used to protect quay edges, working platforms, floating structures and berthing contact areas. The rubber body helps absorb impact and reduce direct contact between the vessel and the structure. The suitable fender size should be selected according to docking condition, vessel type, contact area and installation surface.
For quay edges, working platforms and port berthing areas, GD fenders can be used together with other marine dock and mooring fender systems.
GD Fender for Ships and Workboats
GD fenders can also be used on ships, workboats and small marine vessels. They provide side protection during docking, maneuvering or contact with nearby structures. For vessel-side installation, buyers should confirm the available mounting space, required length, hole position and fixing method before production.
Mold Size and Length Options
GD fenders are normally produced according to existing mold profiles. The width, height and main profile shape are decided by the mold, so buyers can select a suitable size from available options. The length can usually be arranged according to project requirements, and the fender can be cut or produced to match the installation layout.
Hole Drilling and Installation Details
Hole drilling can be arranged according to the installation method. The hole position, hole diameter, countersunk design, bolt size and spacing should be confirmed before production. If the installation structure is uncertain, some buyers prefer drilling on site according to the actual position.
Rubber Material and Surface Finish
GD fenders are usually produced from rubber compounds suitable for marine working conditions. The rubber material should provide elasticity, impact resistance, weather resistance and long-term outdoor performance. Black is the most common color, while other colors may be discussed according to project requirements.
Information Needed for GD Fender Inquiries
