TANDEM FENDER
BUY OR CUSTOMIZE NOWThe Fendertex Tandem Fender dual tube design prevents it from rolling on itself and protects a larger area than other shaped fenders. The tandem fender can be used in multiple applications:
- For tenders to tie to the main yacht
- Attached to swim platforms to "Med tie" or stern tie to a dock
- For sailboats at the widest point of the vessel
The fender is knitted using a patented high-tech polyester textile and inflated with an ultrasonically welded polyurethane bladder. The fender offers high abrasion resistance and high compression strength, built with 316 stainless steel d-rings located at the top. Fendertex Tandem Fenders are ultralightweight, easy to handle, and can be deflated and rolled to minimize storage space.
All Fendertex Tandem Fender textiles are dyed in mass, making them highly resistant to UV degradation and color fading. In addition, the patented salt-resistant material and knitting technique was designed for the megayacht market to limit abrasion on the hull and paint. As a result, Fendertex Fenders material will leave no marks on the outside of the hull.
* Custom colors are available (6-10 week lead time for custom colors).
