D FENDER TYPES

DD and DO Rubber Fender Series

SME Marine manufactures D Fenders using injection or compression molding, depending on the fender size and shape. Injection molding provides precise dimensions and a smooth, uniform finish. In comparison, compression molding suits larger D Fenders and delivers consistent rubber density. Both processes produce durable rubber fenders for dependable service in marine environments.
