Keyhole fenders, also known as rubber keyhole fenders, are a type of ruber fender used worldwide and, which are designed to provide very reliable protection for bows or quay walls. This fender is made of highly abrasion resistant rubber with good elastic properties. It has keyhole-shaped openings inside and is used in areas where large forces must be absorbed.
Keyhole fenders are produced with flat or grooved faces, depending on the friction or grip required. They are extruded when cut to length and molded when blocks are required. These fenders have a typical shape and load absorption capacity, providing maximum protection for tugboats, small harbor craft and ferries.
Keyhole fenders are very easy to install and replace, and are usually bolted on. Two mounting holes allow for easy and accurate installation. They can be cut and angled to fit the hull. These fenders are very strong, but can still be bent around the hull, making the fixing of this fender very simple.
Our keyhole fenders are available in heights and lengths up to 350mm, and can also be customized to different sizes according to customer requirements. Boomaine keeps most standard sizes in stock for fast delivery. Like other extruded fenders, keyhole fenders can be equipped with UHMW-PE face pads. Robustness and ease of installation make this type of fender a very economical solution.
