TLE Element Fender
TLE Element Fenders are single-piece molded units with embedded mounting plates. Ideal for restricted spaces, they are easy to install and need little maintenance.
More infoNo one safeguards your marine assets the way we do!
Fenders provide long life to the boats and ports. Imagine an American Football player without his protective or rather say poorly designed and manufactured protective in the game. Fenders are that mandatory and should be engineered to fit the purpose as it absorb the kinetic energy of a berthing vessel in a very dynamic marine environment and thus prevent damage to the vessel or the berthing structure.
We don’t make safety, we make safety better.
TEKMARINE Mooring bollards are designed using FEA analysis. Material & shapes are optimized for the best performance and usage. TEKMARINE Bollards are available in a wide range of shapes, load capacity, and materials, as every port’s geographical, environmental and operational requirements are unique and thus no single combination can satisfy all customers.

More infoThe TCN Cone Fender is one of the most advanced molded units available. The fender’s conical shape is self-centering, which keeps it stable at large compression angles. The TCN resists high shear forces and can handle large panel weights. This means there is less need for complex chain systems.
More infoTekMarine TWF Wheel Fenders guide vessels safely into berths and narrow channels, such as dry-docks or lock entrances, or around corners. On contact, the wheel slides back against concealed rollers for higher energy absorption than a traditional Roller Fender and a very low rolling resistance.
More infoThe TCL Cell Fender is a proven design that protects thousands of harbors around the world. Its cylindrical body resists overloading without sacrificing shear resistance.

Marine fender industry has traveled a long way from wood logs and old tires to modern semi-mechanical fender systems such as TPMF Parallel Motion Fender.

More infoThe Parallel Motion Fender is a self-contained, fully engineered fender system. It can lower reaction to under half that of conventional fender systems. Even at high berthing angles and varying impact levels, the panel is held vertical and there is little or no loss of energy absorption.
More infoTRA Arch Fenders are single piece rubber units. The simplest version has a plain rubber face and can be installed almost anywhere. An optional embedded steel plate allows mounting behind pilings, or for UHMW-PE facings (p28) or steel plates to be attached.

More infoCylindrical Fenders have been a popular choice for many decades. TekMarine TCL Cylindrical Fenders come in many sizes and configurations, are easy to install and will last for years with minimal maintenance.
More infoThe same advanced materials technology goes into every TekMarine foam fender and buoy. A filament-reinforced
outer layer shields the closed-cell polyethylene foam core. While the fender’s skin shrugs off wear and tear, the
foam provides buoyancy and absorbs berthing energy.
TekGuard Foam Fenders are used for ship-to-ship maneuvers and quayside protection. Their tough, non-marking skins come in white, naval gray and high visibility colors. They resist UV and ozone damage and will not
deflate or sink.
TDF Donut Fenders guide vessels at lock entrances, berth approaches and turning points. The donut floats around a tubular pile and follows changes in the water level.
More infoTekMarine TPF Pneumatic Fenders are highly successful for ship-to-ship operations and for high tidal ranges. They provide temporary or permanent protection and are simple to deploy. Their low hull pressure and reaction, rough weather performance and durability make them favorites for naval use.
More infoTekMarine THF Hydro pneumatic Fenders are designed for vessels, such as submarines, that make contact with fenders below the waterline.
More infoTekMarine TRF Roller Fenders are often used to protect lock and dry-dock entrances and narrow channels, and for effective corner protection. The bearings are made from stainless steel and a low-friction composite, and sit
safely inside a rugged steel casing. The design allows for minimal rolling resistance and years of safe operation with little maintenance.
Extruded Fenders are used for smaller vessels and lighter applications. They are usually bolted to the structure,
either through the top or sides of the fender. Available in various sections including D and square, they can be
supplied in almost any length then cut and drilled as needed.
TekMarine HD-PE Fenders are durable, low friction facings that wear better and last far longer than traditional timbers. HD-PE does not rot, split or suffer from marine borers.
More infoComposite Fenders combine a rubber body permanently bonded to a low-friction UHMW-PE face pad. The rubber
body absorbs berthing energy while the facing reduces shear forces.
TekMarine protects every fender panel with top quality UHMW-PE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) facings. Impact resistant and very low in friction, UHMW-PE allows vessels to move smoothly past a
fender system without snagging or abrasion. It is also popular for heavy duty impact protection where fenders are not required.
Modern tugs frequently use large cylindrical fenders as their main pushing fenders to bow and stern. The rounded section maintains a constant contact against flared vessel hulls, and work just as well with straight-sided vessels.
More infoThe large, flexible faces of M-Fenders exert low hull pressures when pushing vessels. They are grooved for a soft and flexible contact face, which firmly grips the vessel’s hull. The M-Fender attaches securely to the tug via fixing pins running through each of its three legs.
More infoOne of the world’s most popular tug fender designs, the W-Fender is built for extreme conditions. Its open-bore profile makes installation simple around almost any hull shape.
More infoThe Block Fender’s instantly recognizable ‘keyhole’ section handles the most demanding tug operations.
More infoA fender system relies on the best quality fixings and accessories to perform properly. Large or heavy-duty fenders need chain systems to manage shear, tension and weight.
More infoEvery TekMarine rubber fender unit uses the highest quality Natural Rubber (NR) or Styrene-butadiene (SBR) based
compounds.
Standard manufacturing and performance tolerances apply to all TekMarine fenders. TekMarine may agree to
smaller tolerances in special cases.
Testing molded1 and wrapped cylindrical2 fenders is conducted in-house, with an option for third party witnessing,
using full size fenders in accordance with the PIANC 20023 guidelines below.
