Oroflex-10 Rubber Layflat Hose

Oroflex-10 Rubber Layflat Hose is a heavy duty nitrile rubber layflat discharge hose — built for water, slurry, and mixed fluid transfer in harsh mining, quarry, and industrial site environments

Oroflex-10 is a textile-reinforced nitrile rubber layflat hose. Unlike PVC layflat, the rubber construction gives it far superior resistance to abrasion, rough ground, and kinking, as well as resistance to petroleum products and oily water. Its tough exterior can handle the broken surfaces, sharp edges, and site debris of mining and quarry environments without splitting. Rated from 14 bar (small sizes) down to 10 bar (large sizes). Recommended temperature range -30°C to +80°C. Available in 38mm to 203mm (1-1/2” to 8”). For drag-rated applications requiring air supply or very high-pressure liquid service, see the Oroflex-20 Rubber Layflat Hose.

Features

• Nitrile rubber construction — far superior abrasion and cut resistance compared to PVC layflat in rough site conditions.
• Petroleum and oil resistant — handles mixed water/oily fluid streams, unlike standard PVC layflat.
• Hard wearing exterior — suited to quarry faces, mine sites, and construction areas with broken ground, sharp rock, and debris.
• Permeable and flexible — good performance in cold conditions.
• Flat structure — easy to roll and store.

Construction

• Tube — Nitrile rubber.
• Reinforcement — High tensile synthetic textile.
• Cover — Nitrile rubber, abrasion and petroleum resistant.

Applications

• Mining and quarry dewatering — primary application; rubber construction handles the site conditions that degrade PVC hose.
• Construction site water and slurry transfer — abrasion-resistant cover suits harsh working environments.
• Industrial dewatering where petroleum or oily water may be encountered.
• Water transfer in environments with rough ground, sharp edges, or heavy traffic.

General Specifications

• Service temperature range: -30°C to +80°C
