Construction of Barral Mooring Buoys

General suface chain support cylindrical utility buoys are manufactured with high quality closed-cell PE/EVA resilient foam, encapsulated with self-colored tough polyurethane elastomer skin.

• Tough reinforce polyurethane outer skin – General surface support buoy’s skin is constructed of polyurethane elastomer, which also can be reinforced with nylon filament. The polyurethane skin is unique elastomer specifically for offshore applications. It is high resistance to abrasion, fatigue and ultra voilet degradation and is significantly more durable.
• Laminated closed cell resilient foam core, unsdinkable design – General sruface support buoys are made with highest quality closed-cell PE/EVA foam. This resilient foam make the buoys self fendering with high imptact absorption capacity. Even the skin was puntured, it also is unsinkable without absrbing water. With our unique laminating proecess, each foam core is integrity. The foam core cannot be reputured after long time sevice.
• Steel work and end assembly – Through central steel tube with longtitudinal guessets and external load distribution flanges at each end, epoxy coated or hot-dipped galvanized, are encased in a closed-cell urethane foam central body. Opetional bail eye, clevis eye, swivel, chain locking plate, single locking pin end fitting are availble. 

Cylindrical Utility Buoys Specification
Cylindrical foam-filled chain support buoys ranging from 1 Ton to 4 Tons (or more) – Fitted on each end with mooring pad eye or swivel or mixed depending on use.
