Marine hose connectors are specialized fittings designed to securely join marine hoses, ensuring leak-proof fluid transfer in maritime applications. Marine hoses are flexible tubes used for transferring liquids like oil, water, or chemicals between ships, offshore platforms, and shore facilities. Both are built to withstand harsh marine environments, including saltwater corrosion and high pressure.

Marine Hose Connectors:

- Size: 3" to 24" (DN80 to DN600)

- Grade: API 17K, API RP 17B, OCIMF standards

- Material: Carbon steel, stainless steel, or high-strength alloys

- Pressure Rating: Up to 3,000 psi (207 bar)

- Temperature Range: -20°C to 120°C (-4°F to 248°F)

- Flange Type: ANSI, DIN, or custom specifications

Marine Hoses:

- Size: 4" to 24" (DN100 to DN600)

- Grade: OCIMF, ISO 13628-5, API 17K

- Viscosity: Suitable for crude oil (10-5,000 cSt), chemicals, and LNG

- Buoyancy: Neutral, positive, or negative (depending on application)

- Material: Nitrile rubber, EPDM, or fluoropolymer lining with steel wire reinforcement

- Pressure Rating: 150 psi to 1,500 psi (10 bar to 103 bar)

- Temperature Range: -50°C to 150°C (-58°F to 302°F)

- End Fittings: Flanged, camlock, or quick-connect couplings

Yes, Marine Hose Connectors and Marine Hoses typically comply with maritime standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and specific industry standards like OCIMF (Oil Companies International Marine Forum) guidelines for hoses used in oil and gas transfer.
