Armored Floating Hose

Product Overview

A self-floating armored dredging hose for severe abrasion and impact conditions involving gravel, coral, ore or weathered rock.

Product Detail

The hose contains wear-resistant steel rings embedded inside the hose body, combined with reinforcement layers, flotation jacket and end fittings. It is used when both buoyancy and high abrasion resistance are required in floating discharge pipelines.

Features

• Built-in wear-resistant steel rings for severe abrasion
• Impact resistance for angular and hard particles
• Integrated flotation performance for floating pipelines
• Good flexibility and bending behavior
• Suitable for high pressure dredging applications

Technical Parameters

Design Note

Customized specifications are available according to project requirements. Final design should be confirmed based on slurry density, pipeline layout, dredger type, pressure, bending radius and installation conditions.

Applications

Used in floating discharge pipelines connected to dredger sterns where the conveyed material includes coarse sand, gravel, coral, ore or weathered rock.

Information Needed for Quotation

• Nominal bore size, overall length and flange standard
• Working pressure, test pressure and suction/vacuum requirement if applicable
• Conveyed material: mud, sand, clay, silt, gravel, coral, ore or other slurry
• Slurry density, solid content, particle size and abrasion condition
• Pipeline arrangement: floating, submerged, shore, deck, pump inlet/outlet or bow blowing
