Floating Hoses for Dredging Pipelines

Explore self-floating, armoured and tapered hose options for the floating section of your dredging pipeline. Review the hose type, connection arrangement and operating requirements before defining the supply scope.

— Product range

Three types within the floating hose family

Choose a starting configuration from the existing range. Published dimensions below are reference sizes, not confirmation of availability or a universal operating rating.

— Floating pipeline section

Self-floating hose

A buoyant hose option for the waterborne pipeline. The existing range lists mud, clay and finer sand applications, with an abrasion-resistant lining and UV-protected cover.

Published inner diameters
200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700 mm
Published temperature reference

— Armoured variant

Armoured self-floating hose

An armoured option within the self-floating hose family. Describe the transported material and particle conditions when requesting this construction.

Published inner diameters
400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800 mm
Published temperature reference
−40°C to +60°C; confirm for the selected construction.

— Transition arrangement

Tapered self-floating hose

The published range uses A and B hose sections for the transition to the floating line. Confirm the complete connection arrangement rather than selecting either section in isolation.

Configuration review
A/B section arrangement, end connections and required movement.

— Floating hose FAQ

Questions before selecting a hose

Clarify the configuration before relying on a product name or reference size.

Is an armoured hose a separate pipeline category?

It is a variant within the floating hose range. State why an armoured construction is being considered and provide the material and operating requirements for review.

Can I apply one temperature range to all floating hoses?

No. The existing page lists different references for self-floating and armoured hoses. The temperature and other ratings need confirmation for the exact construction being supplied.

Does a listed diameter define the complete hose?

No. Length, construction, pressure requirements, end fittings and the floating arrangement also need to be specified.

Can the tapered arrangement replace an existing connection directly?

Do not assume a direct replacement from the product description alone. Provide the existing connection drawing and required movement so the complete A/B arrangement can be reviewed.
