HD Marine COMPO PTFE CHEM SG - Composite Chemical Hose for Marine & Industrial Transfer Applications
The HD Marine COMPO PTFE CHEM SG is a high-performance composite chemical transfer hose designed for marine, dockside, and industrial chemical handling systems. Engineered with a PTFE and polypropylene lining and stainless-steel or galvanized steel wire reinforcement, this hose ensures maximum chemical resistance, flexibility, and safety in the transfer of aggressive and corrosive fluids across ship-to-ship, ship-to-shore, and tank applications.
Key Features
- Wide Chemical Compatibility — Suitable for transferring a wide range of industrial and marine chemicals without compromising integrity.
- PTFE & Polypropylene Lining — Provides excellent resistance against acids, alkalis, solvents, and other aggressive fluids.
- Durable Wire Reinforcement — Reinforced with stainless steel or galvanized steel inner and outer wire for superior strength and crush resistance.
- Marine-Grade Construction — Designed for ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore transfer, ensuring secure operations in harsh environments.
- Flexible & Lightweight — Easy to handle, install, and store even in confined or dynamic marine spaces.
- High Safety Margin — Built with a 4:1 safety factor for pressure handling reliability during critical operations.
- Temperature Resistance — Performs effectively within a wide temperature range from -30°C to +90°C.
- Distinctive Red Outer Cover — Enhances visibility and identification in multi-hose marine setups.
Applications
- Ship-to-Ship Chemical Transfer
- Ship-to-Shore and Dockside Loading
- Terminal Chemical Handling
- Acid, Alkali, and Solvent Transfer

Installation & Maintenance Guidelines
- Inspect Before Each Use: Check hose integrity and fittings for leaks, wear, or damage.
- Ensure Proper Grounding: Connect the anti-static wire system to prevent electrostatic discharge.
- Avoid Excessive Bending: Follow the recommended minimum bend radius to prevent liner fatigue.
- Clean After Chemical Transfer: Flush thoroughly with compatible cleaning agents to remove residues.
- Store in Dry Conditions: Keep hoses coiled in a shaded, ventilated area to prevent UV degradation.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The HD Marine COMPO PTFE CHEM SG hose is used for transferring a wide range of chemicals between ships, docks, and shore terminals. It is especially suitable for aggressive chemical products that require PTFE lining protection.
