Some of the main construction features of Ocean Guard fenders include a thermally laminated closed-cell cross-linked polyethene energy-absorbing foam, ultra-heavy-duty integral independent swivel-end fittings, which are internally connected with a heavy-duty stud link chain, and a superior nylon filament reinforced non-construction marking UV-resistant urethane skin. The nylon reinforcing is continuous throughout 80%-90% of the initial skin thickness.
