Norfloat's foam filled buoys


* Approx weight depending on build specification.

Are used by Rescue Services, Ministries of Defence, Yacht Harbours and many Harbour Authorities in the U.K. and overseas.

Norfloat's range of foam filled mooring buoys are moulded from medium density Polyethylene with U.V. stabilisers to give extended service. Two part foam is injected into the buoy under pressure during production,this gives a considerable increase in strength, and the capacity to stay afloat even after sustaining severe damage.

Buoys in the smaller sizes (up to 1m dia.) are normally supplied with a central galvanised tube through the buoy to take the riser chain. Buoys over 1m. in diameter have heavy reinforcing steel top and bottom plates as shown in the above photograph with forged pad eyes to take riser and mooring pennants.Smaller sizes can be supplied with a mooring eye and swivel to special order.

An important feature of Norfloats foam filled buoys is the option to ''build'' these modular buoys to give increased buoyancy in situations where water depth and chain size are of vital consideration. Special mooring requirements will often need a ''design for the job''; these buoys are an ideal basis for such applications.

Built to last, Norfloat's entire range of buoys are designed to survive much of what mother nature can put them through. Coated to reduce UV damage from constant sun exposure. The name Norfloat is synonymous with mooring buoys around the world for a reason. These buoys are respected by experienced maritime professionals for their long working life and quality of build.
