Heavy Duty Big Size Flexible STS Dock Rubber Hose For Crude Oil Cargo

Dock Rubber Hose

Dock rubber hoses, which means ship to ship hose are designed for transferring crude oil, petroleum products of cargoes between vessels and oil tankers. Fully compliant with OCIMF standards, our dock rubber hoses are able to withstand abrasion and bending forces and still perform excellently at low temperatures. Furthermore, the risk of leakage or bulge is absent.

Dock rubber hoses mainly consist of inner tube, reinforcement, and cover layer. The cover layer protects the hose body from the damage of the external corrosive environment. Reinforcement is made of high tensile strength fabrics with helix steel wire which makes sure that there won't be any cracks at a high bending angle. The inner tube is made of synthetic rubber or thermoplastic material that is resistant to oil and fuel.

Dock Rubber Hose Basic Construction

1. Inner tube: Synthetic rubber or thermoplastic material (NBR) with features of smooth and resistance to oil and fuel

2. Reinforcement layer: High tensile polyester fabric with stainless steel helix embedded

3. Cover layer: CR compound rubber resistant to abrasion, seawater, and sunlight

4. Body wire: steel wire

5. Flange :ASTM A-105 (Max. Carbon 0.25%) , ASME B16.5

Applications Of Dock Rubber Hose

Dock rubber hose is widely used in transferring petroleum, crude oil, and vapours between vessels and oil tankers.
