Checkmate Flexible Engineering

For over 40 years, Checkmate has been a trusted leader in providing high-performance rubber products to the marine sector including marine rubber seals and rubber fenders.

Designed for durability and reliability, our solutions help protect vessels and equipment from the harshest conditions at sea. Our range includes robust hovercraft skirts, reliable marine rubber seals, and impact-resistant marine rubber fenders. Manufactured for extreme durability, our products ensure long-lasting protection.

Heavy Duty Rubber Airbags

The Checkmate Heavy Duty Dunnage Bags uses advanced valve design, strength and quality to offer greater protection to your cargo, no matter where in the world it is being transported.

Our advanced corner-fill dunnage air bag improves on our previous designs by allowing them to be fully inserted into small gaps in the stow before inflation, something which is not possible with a conventionally positioned valve. This allows for higher pressures and more force which reduces the risk of bursts in heavy seas, as stresses are minimised.

Hovercraft and Surface Effect Vessel Skirts

Checkmate Flexible Engineering is, arguably, the world’s leading manufacturer of air cushion vehicle skirt components, including parts for hovercraft and surface effect ships. We design our skirts and seals on an individual basis, providing a tailored product that meets the specific requirements of each project.

Peristaltic Hoses

Checkmate Flexible Engineering developed the technology of modern, reliable, hand-built peristaltic hoses for hose pumps. Our hoses benefit from many years of experience in design and manufacture of rubber materials, and a full range of liner compounds are available for different applications.

Hoses are available for any make of pump requiring a reinforced hose with inside diameter from 30mm to 200mm (the world’s largest). Checkmate Flexible Engineering supplies most of the pump OEMs and also major distributors
