Features
Fender Max combines advanced materials, welded construction and a distinctive diamond knurled surface to create a premium inflatable fender for demanding marine environments. Every feature is designed to improve durability, reduce maintenance and give you greater confidence during docking, berthing and alongside operations.
The ArmourteQ construction gives the Fender Max over ten times the abrasive resistant life of Hypalon (CSPE) and PVC fender materials. It lasts longer and protects better, as demonstrated in our video testing.
The distinguishing feature of the Fender Max is the diamond knurled finish. This innovative process reduces friction, stops fender squeal and allows the surface to self-clean.
The Fender Max is welded together with a joint that is as strong as the material itself. It is tough, stable and presents a smooth profile to the boat’s hull. A welded joint will not catch, fray or fail.
The Fender Max is 100% air-tight. No leaks. No topping up. No pressure relief valves to fit and maintain. Seams are thermally imaged and inspected for total security and peace of mind.
No toxic chemicals are used or emitted during the production of the Fender Max. This eco-friendly process benefits the environment and enhances your green credentials.
Fender Max has massive resistance to impact. High kinetic energy loads are absorbed and deflected with ease. It will not fail or collapse like a conventional fender.
A traditional fender cover in polyester or acrylic is not required. This saves assembly time and reduces cost. Traditional covers trap dirt and need to be constantly washed and maintained.
Ready for action, the Fender Max inflates fast. With no covers to fit and adjust, you have more time to deploy. Docking, or coming alongside, becomes easier and not a rushed manoeuvre.
Easy to maintain. A quick rinse with cold water. Then deflate, stow and forget. Nothing could be simpler or faster.
Fender Max fenders have outstanding durability. We guarantee them for five years and expect them to last much longer in real-world marine use.
Abrasion Test
Comparative abrasion testing shows a major difference in durability. Hypalon wore through in 3 minutes and PVC in 6 minutes, while ArmourteQ had still not worn through 60 minutes later.
