A fundamental accessory to preserve boats from possible damage in the event of collisions with other vessels or during the mooring phase, this section of Osculati's online catalog offers various models of buoys, fenders, and fender profiles, available in different shapes and materials to meet various needs and requirements.The fenders available on the market are made of materials much lighter than in the past, ensuring easy maneuverability. The typical shape is that of a sphere or an elongated torpedo, and they need to be inflated before installation. However, flat-shaped fenders are also available, and they come in various sizes to suit different types of boats. The choice should primarily be guided by three factors: the type of boat, the type of dock, and the boat's intended use.Among the most common fenders are cylindrical PVC fenders, equipped with two eyelets at the ends and an inflation valve. They are among the more budget-friendly options, and their elongated shape promotes rolling along the boat's side, making mooring easier. It's also possible to protect them with fender socks to prevent hull wear.To further preserve the boat, it's also possible to install fender profiles. Through the company's catalog, various types of these accessories can be purchased, such as stainless steel or PVC versions. These nautical equipment items act as bumper guards to be installed along the entire length of the boat's side, preventing damage from collisions with other vessels or rubbing against the dock. These cost-effective and easy-to-install elements, the buoys and fenders offered by Osculati, also come with functional accessories like profile joints and closure caps.The extensive range of nautical accessories and equipment offered by the company allows the end user to easily choose the desired product, preserving the beauty and functionality of their boat for a long time.
