Where reaction force becomes an important criteria cell fenders come in. The cell fenders offer minimum reaction per ton-meter energy absorbed.
The very geometrical shape gives the cell fenders sturdiness, shear resistance, compact structure and the cell fender absorbs the energy equally from all directions.
The clinidcrical buckling column of the cell fender absorbs axial loads effectively and buckles radically. The results in multi directional dispersion of energy the cell fenders are equipped with frontal frames with low friction facic pads to reduce the shear force as well as the hull pressure. Multiple installations of cell fenders with frontal frame are feasible to reduce the height of fender to accommodate smallest to biggest vessels at high tide variation site.
