Frequently asked questions about RhinoTube Dock Fenders

  1. I have never seen a dock fender shaped in a triangle. Will it protect my boat?

Yes. The patented shape of the RhinoTube™ Dock Fender is engineered to provide a solid, yet comfortable surface for your watercraft. First, a triangle is the strongest geometric shape so it can absorb heavy impacts.
Second, the curve of the triangle nose is soft so it can handle years of repeated nudges, bumps and rubbing without scuffing the boat. RhinoTube fenders are proven to protect your boat and your dock.

  1. I am thinking about replacing the vinyl wrap on my dock because it fades, stains and discolors after only one season.  Are RhinoTube Fenders better?

Yes. RhinoTube fenders are made from RhinoPoly™ which is a custom blend of polypropylene, polyethylene, UV stabilizers and additives. This makes the fenders really resist fading, staining and discoloration. Even after years in the harshest sun or cold weather conditions, they look great and can be simply wiped off to restore their brilliant color.

  1. Are Rhino fenders easy to install?

Yes. You can install a fender in a couple of minutes with just a drill and screw driver. The TabCaps are designed to allow you to screw the fender to any wood, metal, brick, block surface. You can easily mount the fenders to any upright post with our custom post bracket.  Once installed, you can forget them. Our fenders will deliver years of carefree service and protection for your boat.

  1. How long is the fenders warranty?

Rhino Tube fenders come with an industry-leading 2 year limited replacement warranty.
