Overview
Floating Y pieces are designed to split the flow of oil from a single larger diameter hose to two smaller ones. Floating concentric reducers are used to reduce a large diameter mainline to a smaller diameter tail line.
The metalwork is fabricated to industry guidelines and then closed cell polyethylene foam buoyance is added with a protective polyurethane elastomer skin.
Features
Easy terminal load and off-loading from a wide range of tankers
Self-supporting within the hose string
Application
Hoses
