Suction Rubber Hose with Steel Flange

Description

Suction Rubber Hose with Steel Flange

The suction rubber hose is a versatile and durable hose mainly used on the drag arm of a trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD) or the cutter ladder of a cutter suction dredger (CSD). It is made from high-quality rubber materials, featuring excellent resistance to abrasion, chemical corrosion, and weathering—making it ideal for operation in harsh environments.

The suction hose is reinforced with a spiral steel wire structure or a multi-layer reinforcement design, providing exceptional strength and preventing collapse under vacuum conditions. Its robust construction ensures a long service life and excellent resistance to wear, chemicals, and extreme temperatures.

Key Benefits and Features

• Highly wear-resistant natural rubber, suitable for demanding dredging conditions, significantly extends service life.
• Flexible rubber combined with flanged ends allows easy maneuvering during operation, enhancing handling performance.
• The inner high-strength steel rings absorb vibration and pulsating pressure generated by the dredge pump and the flowing medium, ensuring smoother system operation and protecting other equipment.
• Maintains long-lasting durability in harsh environments, ensuring stable performance under various working conditions.

Suction Rubber Hose Inspection:

To ensure each suction rubber hose meets the required performance and safety standards, a series of strict inspections and tests are carried out throughout the production process:

• Raw Material Test: Each batch of raw materials, including natural rubber, tensile textile, and rubber additives, is carefully inspected before entering the warehouse to ensure quality consistency and durability.

• Hose Dimension Check: The hose’s inner and outer diameters, wall thickness, and flange alignment are measured to confirm they meet design specifications.

• Weight Check: Each hose is weighed to verify it falls within the acceptable tolerance range, ensuring uniform product quality.

• Vacuum pressure Test (if specified): The hose is subjected to pressure testing to confirm its ability to safely withstand the specified working pressure without leakage or deformation.

• Bending Test (if specified): The hose is tested for flexibility and bending resistance to ensure reliable performance under working conditions.

For additional assurance, we can invite third-party inspection agencies to conduct inspections according to customer requirements.

Suction Rubber Hose Packaging Information:

To ensure the safety of transporting suction rubber hoses and maximize loading efficiency, we adopt different packaging methods according to the order quantity:

• Bulk cargo: Delivered in loose packing to the port and then consolidated into containers.

• Small-volume cargo: Secured on wooden pallets before being loaded into containers to ensure stability and safety during transportation.
