Taylor Made Products Tuff End Round Fender Buoy 1146, 15 Inch, White

The Taylor Made Products Tuff End Round Fender Buoy (part number 1146) is a 15 inch inflatable marine fender designed for heavy duty docking and mooring protection. Built from flexible, resilient marine-grade vinyl, this fender uses a seamless one-piece construction rather than multiple bonded seams, which reduces the risk of leaks or seam failure over repeated use. Each end is injection molded and tested to 2000 psi tensile strength, and the ends feature large line holes sized to accept most ropes and standard shackles for easy rigging.

Inflation is handled through a tri-valve (Trivalve) system, which allows the fender to be filled with a standard ball pump, a football needle, or an air compressor, giving boat owners flexibility depending on what inflation equipment they already have on hand. The 15 inch diameter model measures 47 inches in circumference and has a 1-1/16 inch line hole diameter. It is made in the USA for demanding marine applications and is finished in white to match most hull colors. This fender is suited to boat owners who want a durable, low-maintenance round fender for dock protection or mooring buoy use.
