Ship Launching Balloon Thick Rubber Structure High Durability Reliable Performance

Marine Rubber Airbags are engineered for high-load marine operations including ship launching, vessel landing, and heavy structure transportation. They are constructed from premium natural rubber combined with multi-layer high-strength synthetic tire cord reinforcement, forming a composite structure capable of withstanding extreme pressure, dynamic forces, and repeated use.

The internal cord layers are aligned to optimize tensile strength and distribute load evenly across the airbag body, ensuring structural stability and reliable performance. The outer rubber layer is specially formulated for superior abrasion resistance, UV resistance, and corrosion protection against saltwater.

Available in diameters from 0.8 meters to 2.5 meters and lengths up to 24 meters, with custom sizes available to meet project-specific requirements. When inflated, they form a rolling support platform that evenly distributes vessel weight and allows smooth movement during ship launching or landing operations.

A shipyard in Northern China successfully launched a 6,200 DWT bulk freighter using Hongruntong Marine Rubber Airbags. The vessel measured approximately 120 meters in length with a displacement exceeding 6,000 tons.

Engineers designed a configuration using 20 airbags with a diameter of 1.8 meters and length of 16 meters positioned along the keel and bilge sections. The airbags were inflated incrementally to ensure uniform support, and the launch was completed safely in a single day.

The operation demonstrated significant cost savings by eliminating the need for expensive temporary infrastructure while providing reliable, reusable equipment for future projects.

* Other sizes can be provided following client's requirements.

• Ship Launching from Limited Facilities: Enables vessel launches without permanent slipways or dry docks using controlled rolling movement for even weight distribution.
• Vessel Landing and Hull Maintenance: Provides temporary stable support for ship inspection, repair, or maintenance when dry docks are unavailable.
• Transport of Heavy Marine Structures: Used in offshore and coastal engineering for moving large prefabricated structures, floating docks, or heavy marine equipment with minimal friction.

• Extensive Marine Engineering Experience: Years of experience designing and manufacturing marine engineering equipment with solutions tailored to client needs.
• Premium Materials and Construction: High-quality natural rubber and multi-layer synthetic tire cord reinforcement with strict quality checks for safety and reliability.
• Custom Design and Engineering: Fully customized airbag solutions based on vessel dimensions, displacement, launching slope, and environmental conditions.
