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.

After primary carcass failure, fluid is visible inside the oil detector

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.

SPECIALLY REINFORCED & VARIABLY REINFORCED SUBMARINE HOSE

SRSH (Specially Reinforced Submarine Hose) and VRSH ( Variably Reinforced Submarine Hose ) with bending stiffness 500kN-m2 ( 51ton-m2) designed for SALM ( Single Anchor Leg Mooring ) System were developed and employed for FOSCO Japan in 1983 originally. This outstanding characteristic contributed to the successful operation of SALM System since then. For more details, please contact YOKOHAMA.

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.
