Suction Hose with Sandwich Flange

A flexible suction hose with sandwich flange ends for dredging suction pipelines requiring vacuum resistance and better flexibility.

Product Overview

A flexible suction hose with sandwich flange ends for dredging suction pipelines requiring vacuum resistance and better flexibility.

Product Detail

This suction hose type is suitable for compact installations where a conventional steel nipple hose may be too stiff. It provides vacuum resistance, wear resistance and flexibility for suction lines on dredgers.

Features

  • Vacuum resistant design for suction service
  • Sandwich flange structure with better flexibility
  • Suitable for limited installation space
  • Good wear resistance for mud and sand mixtures
  • Can work in dynamic bending sections of suction pipelines

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 on dredger suction lines where flexibility, vacuum resistance and compact installation are required.

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
