This kind of
Cylindrical Buoys with Soft-Skin are mainly made for general-purpose
applications, rather than a specialized area of work.
Their Soft-Skin and foam
core makes them similar to Foam-Filled Fenders, which are also buoyant, and
makes these buoys particularly safe and resistant against collisions with ships
or other maritime objects.
NOTE: Weight in kg. Measurements in mm.
These are our standard dimensions, after product customization deviation margins might apply.
Cylindrical Buoys, being a multi-purpose type of buoy, can be useful in an infinite range of buoyancies, depending on the intended applications. Our standard sizes begin at just 100 kg or 0.1 Tons of Buoyancy, being less than half a meter in diameter; and typically would range up to 500 kg, or half (0.5) a Ton, at 700 mm dia. Smaller All-Purpose buoys can be manufactured without a problem, in this special Polyurethane Soft Skin variety, or in our other hard shell or still construction types. These smaller models are typically used in fish farms, for aquaculture applications such as support buoyancy, or even moorings, but thanks to their versatile design they can become a crucial component of virtually any kind of maritime system. These smaller sizes can also be simply used as marker buoys, serving a perfect fit for this application.

Ranging between 1 and 2.5 Tons we offer our "Medium" sizes, these are most commonly used as Hose or Rope Pickup Buoys in the Offshore, but can also be used as support buoys in Aquaculture environments such as fish farms. They are around one meter (1 m) in diameter, and are typically manufacturer almost 2 meters long. Especially for offshore applications, Osaka Industry offers customized pad eyes to ensure compatibility with the specific connectors used on the chain, cable, or other structure.

Also extremely popular, our larger sizes of our cylindrical All Purpose Buoys range between 3 and 6 tons of net buoyancy, and are manufactured between 1 meter and almost 1.5 meters in diameter for the standard sizes. They are relatively larger than our other offered "Medium" sizes, but can be used in the same environments and applications both in the Offshore and Aquaculture, but with the capacity to support larger structures. They are manufactured using our special Soft Skin, which provides the robustness and "Unsinkability" so useful in the Offshore Oil & Gas industry. For projects that require larger buoyancies, such as 50 tons or more, we would recommend our special Heavy-Duty buoys, such as our Anchor Pendant Buoys, or our specialized Mooring Buoys, that are able to achieve greater buoyancies and are specialized for the tasks required.
