Layflat Tankwashing Hose
Dasic Marine’s Layflat Hose has been introduced to compliment the already wide range of Dasic tankwashing accessories. It is designed to provide a lightweight alternative to the traditional rigid tankwashing hose.

Its unique light weight substantially reduces crew workload whilst retaining all existing performance and safety aspects.

Manufactured with a fully woven polyester reinforcement and completely encapsulated with a thermoplastic elastomer (polyurethane), the hose provides high pressure capabilities together with excellent resistance to attack by fuels, chemicals, abrasion, weathering and ozone/u.v.

Two low resistance stainless steel bonding wires are incorporated against the build up of static electricity.

Performance Specification:

Construction:	Fully woven polyester reinforcement, which through extrusion, is totally encased with a thermoplastic elastomer (polyurethane) completely bonding both the internal lining and outer cover eliminating seperation problems.
Electrostatic Protection:	Two stainless steel braids at 180° to each other, fully protected by encapsulation in the cover.
Diameters:	38mm (1½") and 50mm (2")
Lengths:	Upto 30 metres - longer lengths on request
Minimum burst pressure:	41 Bar (600 psi)
Maximum advised working pressure:	20.5 Bar (300 psi)
Temperature range:	-48°C to 98°C
Approximate weights (without couplings):	38mm (1½") - 0.3kgs per metre 50mm (2") - 0.5kgs per metre
Colour:	Yellow

As a guide to comparative weight saving, a typical 15m (50') x 50mm (2") rigid tankwashing hose fitted with couplings weighs - 30kg. A similar length of Dasic Layflat Hose fitted with couplings weighs - 10.5kgs
