JIF Marine FBF1 Side Bumper, Black Plastic Dock Fender, 10 Inch Wide End
The JIF Marine FBF1 is a black plastic side bumper designed to protect boat hulls and dock edges from scuffs and impact damage during docking and mooring. Molded from durable plastic, this fender-style bumper tapers from a wide protective face down to a narrower mounting end, providing a cushioned buffer wherever a boat rubs against a dock, piling, or seawall. Its low-maintenance plastic construction resists the elements better than fabric-covered fenders, making it a practical choice for permanent dock installations that see repeated contact.
The FBF1 measures 23.5 inches wide by 10.25 inches high, with a wide end diameter of 10 inches, giving it enough surface area to spread impact force across a broad section of hull or dock frame rather than concentrating it at a single point. At 1.5 pounds, it is light enough for straightforward mounting to a dock post, piling, or seawall face. The black finish blends in with most dock hardware and hulls, and the plastic material holds up to sun and water exposure without the cracking or waterlogging that can affect foam or vinyl-covered alternatives.
