Series 3 Bumperfloats

Techstar's new Series 3 Bumperfloats are a higher version of our Patented Series 1 Bumperfloat. Designed to run the length of your dock on both sides, these floats will comfortably float a dock 8 feet wide. BF-3's are used for larger and higher docks.


Series 3 Bumperfloat Features and Benefits:

  • Dock Bumpers are built in as part of the float.
  • Foam filled for added security.
  • your wood frame and decking stay way out of the water.
  • Polyethylene is environmentally friendly, as well as gasoline and wildlife resistant.
  • Construction is simple. Build a frame with 2x8 or 3x8 lumber and corner brackets, then attach floats through molded bolt holes (there are 8 holes per float)
  • Deck boards sit flush with top of the float for a clean finish.

Requirements

2 Floats are required for every 4 feet in dock length and docks over 8 feet wide should have center flotation. Techstar Model MF-2448 is the right height for center flotation therefore for a 16 x 16 dock similar to the one shown here would require 8 x BF-3's and at least 4 x MF-2448's.
