Piling Fender - Flexible Wrap by Aere Docking Solutions
Protect your hull with the ultimate wrap-around piling defense. Engineered from premium, heavy-duty EVA foam, this flexible piling fender delivers maximum impact resistance without requiring any permanent hardware. Whether you face strict marina rules, impenetrable docks, or simply want portable protection while cruising, this wrap-around fender is the perfect versatile solution for boats up to 60 tons.
Why It’s a Game Changer
Drill-Free & Removable: Perfect for leased slips or marinas that prohibit screwing hardware directly into the dock.
Fits Any Material: Ideal for tough, impenetrable pilings made of concrete, steel, fiberglass, or wood.
Travel-Ready Design: Easily loops on and off so you can pack it up and take it with you when you cruise.
Indestructible Marine Build: Won't decay, stain your gel coat, or collapse under heavy compression—even if left submerged for extended periods.
Elite Engineering & Materials
Crafted from a specialized Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) closed-cell foam compound, this bumper offers unmatched resilience in the harshest marine environments. It features high-grade UV resistance to prevent cracking and sun fading, and it is entirely non-absorbent to resist mold and waterlogging.
Coverage & Sizing Guide
6" Diameter Pilings: Wraps approximately 95% around the piling.
12" Diameter Pilings: Wraps approximately 40% around the piling.
Need more vertical height? Simply stack two fenders vertically to double your protection from 31.5" to 62" of total vertical coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do EVA molded piling fenders protect boats and docks?
EVA molded piling fenders absorb and disperse impact energy during docking, helping reduce damage to boat hulls, dock pilings, and waterfront structures. Their durable EVA construction resists wear from repeated contact, minimizing scuffs and dents while extending the lifespan of both marine vessels and dock infrastructure.
Are EVA piling fenders better than rubber piling fenders?
EVA piling fenders provide excellent impact absorption, durability, and resistance to harsh marine conditions. Compared to traditional rubber fenders, they are lightweight, low maintenance, and resistant to UV exposure and moisture. These qualities make them a dependable solution for long-term dock and piling protection.
How do I choose the right piling fender for my dock?
Choose a piling fender based on piling diameter, boat size, and docking activity. This EVA Molded Piling Fender wraps approximately 95% of a 6-inch piling and 40% of a 12-inch piling. For added coverage, two fenders can be installed vertically to provide about 62 inches of protection.
What are the benefits of EVA molded piling fenders?

They help protect boats, pilings, and dock structures from docking damage while requiring minimal maintenance. Their lightweight construction, long service life, and reliable performance make them ideal for marinas and waterfront facilities.
This product works well and protects my boat. They should make the straps a foot longer. I put 2 together to make it work and improvised solutions for the other 2 spots.

Works but hard to install
Not sure why they designed it the way they did, but the straps should be attached to the fender. They are very difficult to attach to the piling while holding and bending the fender to fit the piling. Once installed it’s also difficult to pull the straps tight enough so it doesn’t slide down the piling. Once installed it works fine and protected our rail from scraping so if you can install it, you’ll enjoy it.

The option for various sizes would be nice. Slots at the edges for the straps to go through so they don't get dropped in the water while installing would be nice. Other than that very nice.

Good product with one recommendation
This was exactly what I was looking for to cover a pole that gets bumped quote frequently when parking the boat. Only thing I would change is putting ratchet straps in the package instead of what is provided. Why what is provided does the trick I think ratchet straps would work better!
I'm a Maine Registered Guide specializing in wilderness rowing expeditions along the Maine coast. I've depended on these beach rollers for years to safely secure our boats on shore each night. Two work well for our 21' boat. Sturdy enough to handle medium sized stones, which is a must on Maine's rocky coast. Also make great "pool" toys for relaxing in the water after a long day of rowing. :-)
