Roller fender is a type of dock marine fender, made of stainless steel and composites, with rolling resistance that is very low, and almost requires no maintenance. This fender is usually used to guide the ship to enter space-restricted areas. They are widely installed on the walls of dry docks and other restricted channels to help guide ships and prevent hull damage. It is also used to require lower energy capacity berth angles and lock ports.

Roller fender is also used to mount on a fixed axis supported by a special frame. It has a sliding shaft with a post-lateral wheel to absorb as large energy as possible. The roller fender has a fixed axis that makes it very suitable for the pier and the wall of the lock. The main characteristic of the marine roller fender is that when the ship is berthing, the fender can rotate with the ship’s displacement, and produce a certain deformation to absorb part of the impact energy of the ship. Roller fender is suitable for docks, locks, all kinds of restricted waterways, and protruding corners of docks.

Installation Options for Roller Fenders

Marine roller fenders can be installed in different configurations depending on the project requirements.

  • Vertical Installation

Used on lock entrances and quay walls.

  • Parallel Installation

Multiple rollers guide vessels through narrow channels.

  • Inclined Installation

Allows the fender to match the vessel hull shape and tidal range.

Multiple roller units can also be stacked vertically to cover large tidal variations.

What types of marine roller fenders can we provide?

Our Roller Fenders have two types, roller fender type A and roller fender type B. 

Type A Roller Fener

Type A roller fender can rotate with 20% deflection during berthing which allows it to absorb part of the impact energy.

Type B Roller Fener

Type B roller fender can rotate on three fixed axles, it has a sliding axle in front of two idler rollers to absorb the greatest possible energy during compression of the wheel into the casing.
