Hose Oroflex Oil

supplydischargepolyurethane

Product type
Extruded TPU lay-flat fuel and oil discharge hose.

Key features

• Designed specifically for fuel and oil transport and discharge operations
• Flexible, leak-free TPU construction suitable for prolonged UV and ozone exposure
• Completely antistatic: four grounding wires woven into the hose body
• Sizes 2", 3", 4" and 6" comply with MIL-PRF-370 type C (selected sizes)

Applications
Recommended for fuel and oil discharge in refineries, maritime and offshore operations, chemical plants and military installations. Typical uses: ship-to-shore unloading, ship-to-ship refuelling, bulk fuel discharge/loading, tank-to-tank transfers, aircraft refuelling, brackish and seawater transfer, and home fuel delivery.

Construction
Circularly woven 100% high tenacity synthetic yarn fully encapsulated by thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) extruded through the weave, forming a homogenous single-piece construction without adhesives. Includes four electrical wires protected by a braided polyester sheet to mitigate static build-up. Construction resists corrosion and scaling and provides high abrasion and cut resistance. Easy handling, storage and transport. Maximum hose elongation 2% and maximum expansion 10%.

Lining Properties

• Ultimate tensile strength (lining): minimum 5,800 psi (40 MPa)
• Ultimate elongation (lining): minimum 500%

Abrasion Resistance
Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) offers high abrasion resistance under practical working conditions, providing extended service life where abrasion is a primary concern.

Service Temperature Range
From -58ºF (-50ºC) to 150ºF (65ºC), with peaks up to 175ºF (80ºC). Special versions for higher or lower temperatures available on request.

Ozone Resistance
No visible signs of ozone cracking. Excellent weather and UV resistance.

Chemical Resistance
Exposure to seawater and contamination by most chemicals, hydrocarbons, oils and greases does not affect short- or long-term performance. Chemical resistance chart and specific data available on request.

Couplings
Supplied as requested by purchaser: Camlock, Victaulic, Storz, etc. Hose must be connected to conductive couplings and properly grounded when transferring fuels; the four electrical wires woven into the hose body must be electrically bonded to the couplings.

* Maximum working pressure for fuel oil given with a 4:1 safety factor. The maximum working pressure of the assembly is determined by the lower of hose or coupling ratings.

The OROFLEX OIL hoses are available on minimum order quantity. The actual diameter may differ slightly from nominal to ensure proper assembly with couplings.
