Pipe Float for Dredging Pipes

Product Overview

A reusable flotation unit installed on steel dredging pipes to provide buoyancy for floating discharge pipelines.

Product Detail

The pipe float is installed around the main conveying steel pipe and fixed in position to provide balanced buoyancy. It is suitable for steel pipe floating pipeline systems where high rigidity, reusability and reserve buoyancy are required.

Features

• Provides buoyancy for dredging steel pipes
• Good rigidity and straight-pipe installation
• High reserve buoyancy depending on project layout
• Weather resistant outer cover
• Reusable design when the steel pipe section is replaced

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 on floating steel pipe lines in dredging projects to provide buoyancy and keep the discharge pipeline stable on the water surface.

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
