Sheated D-Ring Navy Blue
The Fendertex® Sheathed D-Ring is a high-strength 316 stainless steel ring encased in a durable, protective textile sleeve. Designed for use with Fendertex fenders, it reduces noise and protects your deck and hull from metal contact. Ideal for quiet, safe mooring in premium yacht environments.

Textile Innovation
From concept to craftsmanship, Fendertex technology represents the perfect fusion of textile engineering, marine practicality, and user-centered design—offering durable, lightweight, and space-saving protection for vessels around the globe.
Central to the innovation is a single-sleeve knitted polyester outer textile, mass-dyed for superior UV resistance and abrasion protection, wrapped around an ultrasonically welded TPU bladder. This combination yields remarkable compression strength—up to 20,000kg—and shrinks to 5–10% of its inflated size for storage.

A Fender that's bigger, lighter, stronger and designed to save space on your journeys.
"Boating enthusiasts worldwide for many years have encountered the issue of fenders that are heavy and take up too much space. This journey has led me to create the worlds lightest inflatable textile boat fender." Jean-Luc Vanoise Owner and Founder

We bought at first 1 Fendertex then 4 others then another 2! … At the dock they do an amazing job of protecting the boat. … Storage is amazing, and to inflate literally takes a few seconds.

Cylindrical fender is a great product … very well made. Expect it to last very well based on robust construction.

The Fendertex’s worked out well. … They are so amazingly stout. They will take much harder impacts than PVC fender.

I have fendertex. Used them for two years now and very happy with them. Easy to move, light as air, and kids and older adults can grab fenders and move them easily.

They are ruggedly built … pack into a very small space … stay inflated with no need to top them off.
