The Seaward dock fender. If the U.S. Navy thinks it's good enough for the1990's maybe it's good enough for your facility now.

The U.S. Navy has chosen Seaward dock fenders to protect its 20 million dollar project, Pier Zulu. Because of its unique double deck design,

Pier Zulu will serve as a prototype for dock facilities well into the 1990's.

Seaward dock fenders are constructed of a tough, snag-free elastomer coating. And Seaward's closed-cell foam center has a very high energy absorption capacity but a low reaction force. These fenders provide stand- off and safely cushion the impact of approaching vessels, whether they're tugboats or battleships. Yet Seaward dock fenders are as easy to install as they are rugged.

The U.S. Navy didn't settle for an ordinary fender to protect Pier Zulu.

So why should you? For more information contact Seaward
