Dredging Self-Floating Rubber Hose
The dredging self-floating rubber hose is a kind of rubber hose that can float on the water used on dredgers. The dredgers can dredge by hydraulic or mechanical means. Hydraulic excavation takes advantage of the erosion action of water flow. For example, water generated by a dredging pump passes through a sand bed through a suction. The flow of water erodes the sand bed before it enters the suction pipe, creating a sand-water mixture. This type of hose is used to transport slurry, sediments, and other materials from the dredger to a discharge point while floating on the water's surface. It has high flexibility to accommodate the movement and bends required during dredging operations. This flexibility reduces stress on the hose and improves handling.
Overview
This dredging self-floating rubber hose is specifically designed for dredging operations where it needs to remain afloat on the surface of the water. The self-flotation capability of the hose is achieved by using a closed-cell foam flotation device integrated into the hose structure. These flotation devices are placed at intervals along the length of the hose to ensure that it floats even if it is completely submerged. This feature eliminates the need for additional support structures or flotation devices.
Applications:
Dredge self floating discharge hoses widely used in dredging project,connected with the dredger,transport the slurry,clay,fine sand,sand,etc.
