Cast VesselFendering

Manuplas®

Advanced Insulation’s Manuplas® division has been a leader in developing bespoke lightweight vessel fendering for over 15 years

Manuplas® cast fenders are manufactured from a high performance physically cross-linked polyethylene foam core and coated with a cast applied unique polyurethane coating.

Cast fendering uses in-house manufactured tooling to produce a custom mould. Cast fendering is therefore appropriate when a high quality, smooth surface finish and tighter design tolerances are necessary, ideal for both commercial and leisure vessels.

Cast fendering is particularly viable for a series of boats rather than a one-off build.

Manuplas® has the capability to provide a full calculation of energy absorption for the berthing of different vessels. This helps to confirm the specification of the fendering required and enables Manuplas® to provide a choice of the most appropriate fender options available to each customer for their specific vessel.

Applications include:

+ Luxury yacht tenders

+ Wind farm support vessels

+ Crew transfer monohulls / catamarans

+ High speed interceptor vessels

+ Lifeboats, search and rescue vessels

+ Military and patrol boats

Designed to Protect, Built to Last

Manuplas®

Manuplas® cast fenders have been designed, manufactured and installed on a number of vessels, providing a lightweight, durable quality fender solution for vessel manufacturers and operators

The ‘Barracuda SV11’ high speed interceptor and patrol vessel from Safehaven Marine was designed specifically for military and law inforcement roles. The Manuplas® fenders are manufactured from a lightweight polythylene foam core and cast with a unique protective polyurethane coating.

The Barracuda is capable of speeds of 35-40kts + and this light weight fender construction (less than one third of the weight of rubber fenders) helps to minimise the weight on the vessel, ensuring that its operations are carried out within very tight time constraints.

Cast Vessel Fender Project

Manuplas®

Briggs Marine - Pilot Boat

A complete Manuplas® cast fendering set was supplied to Briggs Marine for their Lochin 366 Pilot Boat based on the Rye, East Sussex.

The fendering set featured a lightweight non-absorbent foam core with an abrasion resistant polyurethane elastomer skin.

High stress sections, such as the bow and aft corners were upgraded to a higher density foam core and thicker elastomer, with pre-curved sections for a better fit.

Cast VesselFender Project

Manuplas®

PIRIOU - Wind Farm Service Vessel

Manuplas® supplied cast side fenders as well as a 5 piece sprayed modular bow fender set to leading French ship builder and ship repairer PIRIOU. The fenders have been installed on its 26m wind farm support vessel “Ocean Wind 9 of Hartlepool’. The vessel which has been delivered to AIS(Marine)2 Limited, is operated by Windcrew Workboats in the North Sea.

The durable, long lasting side fenders supplied to PIRIOU are manufactured from a high performance polyethylene foam core and coated with a cast applied polyurethane coating, providing a high quality, non-marking finish, requiring minimal maintenance. The side fenders are also lightweight, less than a third of the weight of rubber.

FixingMethods

Adhesive Bonding:

Manuplas® fenders are designed to be glued to the hull of a vessel using a moisture curing polyurethane mastic. This method of attaching a fender system to a boat hull spreads applied loads evenly over the back face of the fender rather than the point loading effect applicable to mechanically fixed systems. It is also the lowest weight option for a complete fitted fender set.

Bolting:

In the event that fenders need to be removed quickly or regularly for operation or maintenance purposes, a bolt in place system can be supplied. Fenders can be vertically or horizontally fixed:

Vertical Through Bolting:

The fenders can sit inside two horizontal plates that are integral to the boat hull. The back face of the fender has a thicker elastomer skin so that it can be drilled to take a bolt that passes through the fender.

Horizontal Bolting:

An aluminium or stainless steel plate is incorporated in the back of each fender section. This can either be configured with threaded holes or protruding studs. Holes are drilled through the hull at set locations to mechanically secure the fenders in place.

Manuplas®

Manuplas® cast fendering is typically fixed to a vessel using adhesives, vertical through bolting or horizontal bolting
