ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a Wharf fender assembly for use with wharves or docks made generally from resiliently deformable material.
The Wharf Fender assembly includes an elongate tubular bender body attachable to adjacent wharf which is generally progressively increasing width or transverse dimensions from one end to the other end thereby providing a larger end and a smaller end. There is also included buffer means operatively associated with the fender body which may withstand an impact from a ship or other vessel when the fender body is attached to the wharf. The invention also includes within its scope a fender body per se.
