Dock Fender DF 80/10 – fixed dock fender for medium dock sections

The seaEQ Boat Fender DF 80/10 is the versatile, medium-length solution within the DF series. Specifically designed as a fixed-mount boat fender for docks, it provides a balanced protective surface for piers and pontoons. If you need reliable, permanent hull protection that stays exactly where you need it, the DF 80/10 is the ideal choice for marinas and private berths.

Application: Fixed Boat Fender for Docks and Piers

The DF 80/10 is engineered for concrete and wooden dock structures. Unlike traditional hanging fenders that can slip or float away, this fixed boat fender creates a continuous safety zone. It effectively prevents scratches, gelcoat damage, and heavy impacts during mooring maneuvers.

Controlled Sliding Contact for Safer Berthing

A standout feature of seaEQ boat fenders is the controlled sliding contact. Upon impact, the boat is not abruptly stopped. Instead, the hull glides smoothly along the fender surface, maintaining steerability and significantly reducing the stress on your boat's structure – even in difficult crosswinds.

Heavy-Duty Construction for Long-Term Use

This dock fender features a high-density, closed-cell polyethylene foam core protected by a tear-resistant synthetic fiber cover. The heavy-duty PVC backing is optimized for screw-mounting, ensuring that your boat fender remains dimensionally stable and UV-resistant for years in the marine environment.

Clean Installation & Mounting

The DF 80/10 is mounted directly to the dock. Integrated webbing straps hide the screw heads, protecting your hull from metal contact while providing a sleek, professional look at your berth.

➡ Matching mounting kits for secure boat fender installation are available as accessories.

Why should I choose a fixed boat fender over a hanging one?
