Dock Edge Dolphin Dockside Bumper 7" x 16" Straight - White

The Dock Edge Dolphin Dockside Bumper 7" x 16" Straight in white is an essential piece of dock hardware for boaters and anglers who demand reliable impact protection. Anyone who has backed a boat against a dock, secured a tender alongside, or navigated tight marina slips knows the damage that even a slow collision can inflict on hull gelcoat and fenders. This straight bumper is engineered to absorb and deflect contact forces, protecting both your vessel and the dock structure from costly repairs.

Built from heavy-wall molded PVC with an air-filled core, the Dolphin bumper delivers superior cushioning under load while remaining durable enough for years of marine use. The integral inflation valve allows field adjustment to match seasonal water levels and weight variations, ensuring consistent protection whether you're docking a 20-foot center console or a larger cruiser. Angled end design actively deflects approaching craft rather than simply absorbing impact, reducing strain on dock lines and cleats. At 7 inches wide and 16 inches long, this bumper spans most dock contact points; installers typically deploy straight bumpers in pairs to form inside corner protection at dock pilings or boat slip entrances.

Boaters operating in commercial or crowded facility conditions—where frequent docking is routine—benefit most from this heavy-duty protection. Charter operations, fishing guides, and marina dock owners routinely specify Dock Edge bumpers to reduce maintenance downtime and insurance claims. Installation is straightforward on pilings, cleats, or dock rails using stainless fasteners (sold separately). The white finish resists UV degradation and remains visible for safety, making it ideal for both freshwater and saltwater environments where corrosion and sun exposure demand reliable material selection.
