A NEW GENERATION IN GIANT MARINE
FENDERS!
IT'S HARD NOT TO BE IMPRESSED
WITH JIM BUOY'S NEW LINE OF SUPER GIANT MARINE
FENDERS!
Not an inflatable but a 98% closed-cell inner
foam core that will never blow-out or sink - even
bullet holes will not materially affect its function!
Often referred to in the industry as the "hull
saver", Jim Buoy's unique design is not simply
a roll of foam but is a carefully crafted, quality
product incorporating the same U.S. Coast Guard
Approved foam used in the Jim-Buoy Industrial
Life Preservers. The end product is a rugged fender
that provides "stop-gap" compression
when hard hit time after time; not only protecting
the ship from damage but the dock and even
the fender itself!

HIGHLY RESISTANT TO ABRASIONS AND PUNCTURES.
Encased in an outer covering of "Elastomic
Skin" (up to 5/16" thick material, some
reinforced with nylon mesh) plus a urethane skin
base, the Jim Buoy Giant Marine Fenders are extremely
resilient and able to flex with the rigors of
high energy berthing over and over again, providing
the user with extended service under all conditions.
All Models may be mounted vertically or float
horizontally. Models up to 24" diameter feature
a 1" thru-hole that provides easy access
for tethering while the larger models are furnished
with a specially designed "end cap"
that incorporates a 5/8''or 1-1/4''shaft and galvanized
steel rope swivel for maximum strength at this
critical area of stress (see illustration below).

UNBEATABLE DESIGN FEATURES!
|
The diagram at left clearly shows the many advanced
design features found in Jim Buoy's new Giant
Marine Fenders - proven features gained from
Jim Buoy's many years of experience in the manufacture
of high quality marine products!
|
Installation Tips - Fenders vertically
when coming along side another ship or dock
allowing the line from the lower end of the
Fender to be free. After the ship's lines are
secure, pull the Fender to a horizontal position.
Use additional Fenders during rough weather.
Repair Service - If your fender is damaged
by misuse or eventual "wear and tear",
repair kits are available from Jim Buoy. Arrangements
may also be made for Jim Buoy to recondition
them to near-new condition and return to owner
as needed - please inquire for complete details.
