Our list of clients for this product vary from water utility companies to speecialist de-watering projects. A range of end fittings and accessories compliment the hose and have been engineered to close tolerances ensuring 100% integrity of the system.
 
 
A major advantage of using a flexible riser is in efficiency savings. These can be broken down into the following categories:
 
  Frictional losses are lower than an equivalent steel tube.
  Installation/retrieval for service or repair of the pump is carried out in a fraction of the time compared to steel piping.
  Oroflex 60 does not suffer from internal encrstation of the liner. In steel pipes the deposits will further impact on flow rates.
  Does not suffer from decay.
  Can be easily installed in deviating boreholes.
  Unlike other flexible risers, Oroflex 60 retains its' original bore after being pressurised allowing the re-user of the couplings. During service however, the acial expansion is 10% further improving flow characteristics.
 
Oroflex 60 is made in lengths of up to 200 metres. On the smaller 2" and 3" sizes, lengths can be joined to create a maximum hose length of 300 metres. The maximum installation length for 4", 5" and 6" risers is 200 metres.
