Yokohama fender servicing schedules

New Yokohama pneumatic fenders come with a standard, two-year manufacturer’s guarantee but require regular servicing, especially if fitted with a safety valve. The recommended service period for their pressure / safety valves is every two years and JF Fendercare’s experience notes that this is also a recommended period to check / repair tyre nets.

If you’ve purchased your Yokohama fender through JF Fendercare, we’ll contact you by email in advance of the service due date and then follow up to arrange a convenient time and location for the service to take place.

By choosing JF Fendercare to service your fenders, you can rest assured that we will deliver the same high quality, support and attention to detail that you can expect from the world’s largest supplier and operator of genuine Yokohama fenders.

Fendercare Marine has secured the necessary licences to perform ship-to-ship transfer of oil off the coast of Brazil.
