Rubber Ladders
The dock rubber ladder is an innovative solution based on Arch Fenders . It installs vertically on dock walls and includes convenient handrails for safe access. Serving as both a rubber ladder and a fender, it protects the dock and moored vessels from impact while allowing personnel to inspect and maintain equipment safely.

Access and Fender Protection in One System
SME Marine Rubber Ladders combine the protective structure of an Arch Fender with practical access steps. Their vertical installation provides a convenient route for personnel while helping cushion contact between vessels and dock walls.
This integrated design makes Rubber Ladders a practical option for docks where both access and impact protection are important.
Rubber Ladder Sizes
The Rubber Ladder is available in heights of 200H, 300H, 400H, 500H, and 600H. Length options include 1800, 2100, 2400, 2700, and 3000 mm, allowing the ladder to meet various operational needs and fit different dock sizes.
| Specification | Available Sizes |
|---|---|
| Height (H) | 200H – 600H |
| Length (mm) | 1800 / 2100 / 2400 / 2700 / 3000 |
Flexible Options for Different Dock Layouts
HT-Ladders come in 150H and 200H sizes, with lengths up to 3000 mm. This range allows installers to match the ladder length to the quay wall height and tidal range.
When space is limited, an extension type provides a practical solution. Alternatively, installers can combine the ladder with other ladder types to achieve a more flexible installation.
150H and 200H, with lengths up to 3000 mm.
A practical option for locations with limited installation space.
Different ladder types can be combined to suit project layouts.
Material Quality and Installation Requirements
Rubber Ladders come in different lengths and mounting configurations to meet project-specific requirements. Manufacturers can evaluate the rubber components for key physical properties using relevant ASTM rubber testing methods.
In addition, installers can select suitable mounting hardware based on the installation environment and project requirements. For marine hardware and corrosion protection, specify appropriate materials and surface finishes according to the operating conditions.
ASTM Rubber Testing Reference
ASTM International publishes standards and test methods covering rubber materials and their physical properties. Relevant methods can be selected according to the rubber compound and the specific properties requiring evaluation.
Visit the official ASTM International website for standards information and technical references.
Reliable Access and Protection at Marine Facilities
Rubber Ladders are suitable for ports, docks, and other marine facilities where personnel need convenient access to the water while dock structures and moored vessels require impact protection.
Their integrated design supports routine inspection, maintenance, and access operations along quay walls.
