Polyurethane Marine Facing Pad

Polyurethane marine facing pad is anti-impact, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and resistant to mud erosion, specially designed to provide long-term protection for ship decks, submarine equipment, and docks. The following is a detailed introduction from the two aspects of core advantages and typical application scenarios:

1. Core advantages of polyurethane protective pads

• Excellent impact resistance and shock absorption performance

Polyurethane materials have high elasticity and tear resistance, effectively absorbing impact energy and reducing damage to equipment caused by collision or wave impact. For example, the elastomer design of polyurethane buffer pads can withstand repeated dynamic loads and is suitable for anti-collision protection when ships dock25.

• Excellent wear resistance and resistance to mud erosion

Polyurethane has a wear resistance of 5-7 times that of ordinary rubber, which is particularly suitable for equipment protection exposed to abrasive environments such as mud, gravel, etc., for a long time. Its surface hardness range is wide (Shore 80A~98A), which can be customized according to needs, taking into account flexibility and rigidity.

• Chemical corrosion resistance and weather resistance

Polyurethane materials have strong tolerance to seawater, oil pollution, acid, and alkali, etc., and can maintain stable performance at extreme temperatures from -30℃ to +80℃, which is suitable for the changing climate conditions of the ocean.

• Lightweight and easy installation

Compared with traditional metal protective materials, polyurethane products are lightweight, which can reduce equipment load, and support customized size and shape, adapting to complex structural installation requirements.

• Environmental protection and long life

The low-VOC, environmentally friendly formula is adopted, which meets the requirements of marine ecological protection. The normal service life can reach 25 years, reducing the waste of resources caused by frequent replacement.

2. Typical application scenarios

• Ship deck and side protection

Deck protection pad: prevents wear and impact on the deck surface caused by cargo loading and unloading or mechanical operation, and extends the service life of the deck.

Ship side anti-collision strip: absorbs the impact force when the ship docks or collides with other objects, and protects the integrity of the hull structure.

• Wharf and port facilities

Wharf fender system: Panel fenders can be installed on the edge of the dock to reduce friction damage when the ship is docked, while reducing noise.

Anti-collision pile protective sleeve: Wrap the surface of steel piles to resist long-term erosion by tides and floating objects.

• Subsea steel structure protection

Pipeline and bracket protective layer: The polyurethane coating can prevent corrosion and mud wear of submarine pipelines and extend the equipment maintenance cycle.

Underwater equipment buffer pad: Used for submarine drilling platforms or cable protection, absorbs water flow impact and mechanical vibration.

• Marine engineering machinery accessories

Marine hose protective pad: Absorb the swing friction between cross hoses, resist acid, alkali, and impact, and extend the life of oil delivery hoses.

Shield machine seals and buffer blocks: Wear-resistant and high-pressure resistant, suitable for deep-sea tunnel construction equipment.

• Customized service and technical support

We provide customized services in hardness, size, and color, and support product design according to drawings or on-site requirements. For example, by adjusting the polyurethane formula, special linings with high load-bearing and shock-absorbing functions, or anti-static and flame-retardant protective pads can be produced to meet the needs of special scenarios such as ports and mines.
