H.C. type fender is the fundamental rubber fender in the simple shape of hollow cylinder. The standard ratios between outside and inside diameters are 2 to 1 and 1.75 to 1. Compared with other type of fenders, it has the lower spring constant at the earlier stage of its deflection, and is easily deformed until it is compressed to close its bore. In other words, it can be largely deformed at the stage where the reaction load is low. For installation, the anchor bolt arrangement is not necessary to be so precise.
D-type fender displays higher energy absorption capacity. It can be mounted on quay wall by means of anchor bolts. It is also applicable to the working ship, small size ship, etc. (Standard Size: D= H, d=1/ 2H)
