Seaflex marine hoses are designed with the help of computer-aided analysis, manufactured by a highly

skilled workforce in state-of-the-art facillities in Japan and subjected to the strictest quality control.
The result is top-line performance. That's why we have so many customers.
The survivability and reliability of offloading hoses in rough seas or during severe sea conditions
provide an excellent indication of how good the hoses really are. Since its Seaflex Marine Hose
was introduced to the industry from 1960, YOKOHAMA has been well known for delivering one of
the best quality flexible rubber hoses for offshore crude oil loading and discharging in the world.

DOUBLE CARCASS HOSE

Oil Detector Warning System (DC) is a second generation YOKOHAMA double carcass hoses primary carcass
failure detection system.
At the time of primary carcass failure, oil would flow into and be trapped inside this built-in oil detector on one end of the hose and
remained visible even after completion of operation, allowing operator to easily check and confirm that particular hose at anytime.
Twist Warning System ( TWS) is a first developed YOKOHAMA double carcass hoses primary carcass failure detection
system that can provide clear indication to operator by twisting its outer grid stripes.
When the primary carcass gets failure by accident and the fluid starts to escape from the primary carcass, the secondary carcass
gives a clear indication to the operator by twisting its outer grid stripes.

SPECIALITY PRODUCTS
POLYURETHANE COVERED HOSE
Applicable for busy terminals coping with marine hoses that quickly deteriorate
and become worn. YOKOHAMA Polyurethane covered hose gives you
superior abrasion resistance in severe conditions. It comes with vivid orange
color which gives you better visibility. Polyurethane covers are applicable to
all floating hose products.
SUPER STREAM HOSE FOR REEL SYSTEM
Developed for FPSO/FSO applications including reel system in exposed
rough and severe sea condition.
The hose is specially designed to withstand the crushing and bending force
due to the reeling. For more details, please contact YOKOHAMA.
STS (SHIP-TO-SHIP) HOSE
The name of YOKOHAMA is well known as the manufacturer of support
products such as YOKOHAMA FENDER and SEAFLEX STS HOSE for
offshore Ship to Ship (STS) transfer operation. SEAFLEX STS hose is
designed for safe offshore operation, and has outstanding characteristics as
follows,
A. Heavy duty design Safety factory of pressure strength is more than five
times of the operating pressure.
B. No permanent deformation Helix wire free construction Deformation
shall not remain permanently even though hoses get kinked by rough
bending and deformation by slight vacuum during operation.
C. Electrically semi continuous SHELLs requirements for Anti-static hose is
fulfilled.
