Dredge Hoses Product Profile In general, the Ocelot Dredge Hoses consist of an inner lining adjusted to the specific requirement of transported media. Wear indicator layers can be implemented in the dredge hoses which transport abrasive media. A textile reinforcement of high tensile strength will control the pressure resistance of the dredge hose as well as the tensile strength. Whereas the outer cover is built up by a rubber compound highly resistant against weathering, UV lights, and Ozone. On special request, the outer cover can be built with oil-resistant materials. Lining Synthetic oil resistant rubber with high strength breaker plies impregnated and coated with high-grade synthetic rubber to achieve maximum adhesion of the lining to the hose carcass. Reinforcement Multiple lines of high tensile reinforcing materials, with outstanding resistance to fatigue, applied at precise angles to achieve maximum strength and flexibility with minimum elongation. Fully embedded steel wire coils are incorporated to achieve kink, crush, and local load resistance. Cover Synthetic rubber, resistant to abrasion, weathering, seawater, and oil. The cover, which incorporates reinforcing breaker plies is black with a bright orange spiral stripe or coated in tough bright orange polyurethane.
