MaxiMax & MiniMax - fence boom

Our range of fence booms are ideal for rapid deployment and oil containment in a variety of applications.

Elastec/American Marine manufactures a line of fence boom with added tension members combined with solid foam flotation. This oil and debris barrier is typically used for rapid deployment in ports and harbors for surrounding vessels or protecting resources. The construction employs top and bottom tension members (cable on top and chain on bottom).

We offer six sizes;

Height 17" / 430mm to 44” / 1100mm
Freeboard 6" / 150mm to 5.75" / 400mm
Draft 11" / 280mm to 27.5" / 700mm

MiniMax and MaxiMax booms have low storage volume and can be stored on pallets or wound on reels. This system is especially useful for ports and harbors where a quick response is required. These booms feature closed cell foam buoyancy panels, vertical stiffeners, galvanized chain ballast, stainless steel top tension cable, plus a choice of fabrics. Fence boom is typically used for static or low current applications.

The construction of these booms does not use sewing that will allow water to enter the float chambers. The floats are closed cell ensuring that they will not take up water.

Manufactured in fully welded PVC material, this boom is fitted with handles and anchor points
