Dredging pipeline floater is a lightweight foam-filled or inflated float used to support hoses and cables on the surface of a waterway. They compress fit around pipes, hoses or cables and are designed to prevent hoses and cables from sinking below the surface of the water. They are easy to install, UV resistant, brightly colored and easy to spot, making them ideal for dredging, mining, marine and any other application that involves getting work done on waterways.

Dredging pipeline floats are made of corrosion-resistant and UV-resistant materials that can withstand waves, wind and the impact of ships. There are many advantages to using them:
High-density, lightweight material facilitates transportation and installation. This is especially valuable when regular mobile operations are required.
Constructed from thickened PE material, our pipe floats stand the test of time whether in marine environments or in harsh conditions, reducing the need for downtime for replacements.
Two pairs of tube floats are a group, and two pieces are a pair. The two halves of the pipe float are easily connected by bolts/nuts made of galvanized steel (or stainless steel if required). Plus, keeping pipes, hoses and cables afloat makes it easier to spot any maintenance issues and streamline repairs.
Dredging pipeline floaters are often made in bright colors and serve as warning signs to other nearby vessels. High visibility and impact-resistant construction help reduce safety concerns.
The interior adopts environmentally friendly PU filler, which has excellent impact resistance and can withstand rough seas and ship collisions.
Dredging pipeline floaters help protect the bottom of bodies of water through which pipes, hoses or cables pass, preventing any environmental damage.
Dredging pipeline floaters are valuable in a variety of applications and are designed to meet the needs and changes of their respective environments from mining to construction, aquaculture to oil and gas. For example, floats for fuel lines, hoses, and cables are not the same design as floats for larger pipe diameters. At Boomarine, we can custom float designs for all types of applications. Here are some examples of applications that can benefit from the value of dredging pipeline floaters:

The quantity requirements of dredging pipeline floaters will vary depending on the environment and scale of use. Therefore, when considering the actual quantity requirements, there are often many factors that need to be calculated, and the following information needs to be collected:
The spacing between each dredging pipeline floater varies by application, so additional details may be required. Keep in mind that insufficient or inconsistent spacing of floats can cause variations in pipe or hose immersion, which can actually restrict the flow of material within the pipe, slowing it down. Another factor to consider is the viscosity and specific gravity of the fluid. Some fluids may be heavier than others, which increases the number of dredging pipe floats needed to avoid submersion.
Polyethylene floats are commonly used in the world for dredging projects and land reclamation projects. They are the ideal floating material for dredging pipelines.
When choosing a pipe float, we must know the following points:
Dredging pipeline floaters have their respective values in various applications. You may also encounter a variety of problems in the selection and use of dredged pipe floats. As an expert in offshore equipment, Boomarine can provide you with professional references to solve your various problems before and after the sale.
Recently, we designed one kind new arc-shaped pipe float buoys. This type pipe float buoys can connect with the pipe closer to get more buoyancy in the shallow water condition. We can make pipe float buoys according to the different diameter pipe. The buoyancy is from 1ton to 10ton each unit.
Arch-shaped pipe floater has three lifting webbing sling. So pipe laying float can be strapped to the pipeline to reduce the tension and weight in the pipeline during the installation. The pipe laying float buoys can provide the buoyancy when pull the pipeline underwater.
