ABSTRACT:
A marine fender comprises a sheet of resilient material that is curved in horizontal cross section and that is attached along opposite vertical edges to a support, such as a piling, so as to provide a deflection space between the sheet and the support. An elastomeric core is mounted on the support within the deflection space, spaced from the sheet, so that the sheet may deflect under impact before engaging the core. Multiple curved sheets may be employed so as to provide a deflection space between successive sheets as well as between a sheet and the support.
