Dredge Pipe Floats
Dredge pipe floats for offshore discharge dredging work. dredge pipe floats are the ideal solution for dredging work. Contact us for more details on the price of dredge pipe floats for dredging work!
Description of dredge pipe floats
The outer shell of dredge pipe floats is made of highly abrasion-resistant low density polyethylene material with excellent flexibility through rotomolding technology and filled with high strength polyurethane closed cell foam. The dredge pipe floats are designed to be supplied with Valor Pipe HDPE dredge pipe and flexible rubber hoses, which provide sufficient buoyancy to keep HDPE dredge pipes floating above the water level.
Features of dredge pipe floats
• Valor Pipe dredge pipe floats are usually made in yellow as a warning sign to other vessels in the vicinity. Other colors can be made upon request.
• To ensure long-term outdoor use, UV stabilizers must be added during manufacture to ensure good UV stability of the dredge pipe floats.
• The dredge pipe floats consist of two halves, the inner diameter of the pipe float is the same as (or slightly smaller than) the outer diameter of the HDPE dredge pipe, so that the dredge pipe float can be firmly fixed to the HDPE dredge pipe without sliding.
• The two halves of the pipe float are connected by bolts/nuts made of galvanized steel (or stainless steel, if required).
• The polyethylene used in the manufacturing process is fully recyclable (environmentally friendly), is fully compatible with the marine environment and has a high UV resistance.
• Thanks to the excellent construction, dredge pipe floaters can absorb or reduce the energy generated by ship collisions and protect the dredging pipes they support. Double reinforced bolts/nuts on each floater ensure a secure connection to the pipe.
• The dredge pipe floater has become the ideal solution and a necessity for modern dredging work.
Advantages of dredge pipe floats
• Dredge pipe floats/floaters have been the first choice for dredging work because they offer many excellent properties.
• The floating structure of dredge pipe floats is impact and wave resistant, compact and reasonable, easy to install, and has excellent performance.
• Good toughness and high environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR) ensure that dredge pipe floats are suitable for offshore and lake construction.
• Light weight, strong wear resistance, easy installation and transportation, low cost of transportation and transformation.
• Corrosion and weather resistance, dredge pipe floater life is more than 3 times than steel floats.
• Simple, fast, flexible assembly of diverse shapes.
• Low price, cost performance is significantly better than steel buoy.
• Impact resistance, acid and alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, etc., so that dredge pipe floater can be used in the sea for a long time.
• Simple installation and low maintenance cost
• Use temperature range -60°C-80°C
