DescriptionRecommended for transfer of abrasive, water-based and petroleum-based drilling fluids between supply vessels and offshore/onshore drilling rigs or platforms. Nitrile tube provides chemical resistance to petroleum-based fluids with increased wall thickness for abrasion resistance. Heavy-duty reinforcement meets extreme oilfield application demands. Neoprene cover resists abrasion, weathering and additional chemical exposure. ABS approved.
Key features- Caution: Not recommended for refined petroleum products such as gasoline.
- Neoprene cover designed for abrasion, weathering (cracks) and enhanced chemical resistance.
- Heavy-duty reinforcement engineered for extreme oilfield applications.
- ARPM Class A — high oil resistance.
- ABS approved.
- Refer to Gates Chemical Resistance Table for fluid compatibility.
