Something like "wooden buffers"?

ملاحظة(ات) إلى/من السائل
Robin Salmon: 08:32 Jan 19, 2007: Fenders - I knew I knew the word (kept seeing rubber tyres on jetties in my mind all afternoon) but it just would not come.
Rub strips seem mainly to be on boats. I'm putting "wooden fender" - googles with Azobé timber.
Kate Hudson: 08:36 Jan 19, 2007: You are right with your own idea for wooden fenders - these are found on quaysides where large vessels dock - often complemented with very large (cushion-shaped) rubber fenders
Tony M: 08:45 Jan 19, 2007: Err, Kate: "fenders" actually came from my answer below!

Robin, on a boat it is more usually called a "rubbing strip OR strake"; I've only ever come across "rub strip" for use on docks; anyway, I think something with "fender" is more explicit

أنجليزي ترجمة:wooden rub strip
شرح:
According to the site mentioned below (albeit an AU one!), "rub strip" would be the right term to use — with the addition of "wooden", naturally.

I had originally thought of "wooden rubbing strip" (UK), but without further invetigation, have not found conclusive internet refs. to back this up.

Yes! They seem to be those big wood poles you see on the side of docks.

غير موافق Tony M: No, as Asker says, these are pieces of timber used for protection applied to piles made of other materials; not the same thing, I'm afraid / I DID read the above, most carefully, and it only serves to confirm what I said! There's no "seem to be" about it

غير موافق Graham macLachlan: 'deal' is often considered (perhaps wrongly) to be pine timber (cf. OED) and therefore would be confusing in the given context

موافق Tony M: Most of those are talking about the equivalent bit on a boat; however, #5 comes from a glossary that confirms the term "wale" or "waler", as already noted in my own answer

موافق Bourth: "Rubbing strip" is certainly the name of this strips down the sides of cars that other people's doors and shopping trolleys are supposed to strike and inevitable don't.

  -> Thanks, Alex!

غير موافق Graham macLachlan: for me a 'wale' is a plank and part of a ship, 'gunwale' for example// I took your last comment to be your answer... apparently 'wale' is related to 'weal': a raised part of the flesh due to whipping!//you're wealcome!

  -> Well, that's just one of my suggestions, but in any case, it IS given in just this context by a number of trustworthy refs. Yes, it usually conveys the idea of "plank" — but it doesn't HAVE to be part of the ship! // Weal, wale, fancy that!
