COMPO Fuel Oil Hose - Heavy-Duty Composite Hose for Aromatic & MTBE Transfer Applications

The COMPO Fuel Oil Hose is a robust, heavy-duty composite transfer hose engineered for the safe handling of 100% aromatic fuels, petrol, diesel, and MTBE. Constructed with a polypropylene lining and galvanized steel inner and outer wire reinforcement, this hose delivers superior chemical resistance, structural durability, and flexibility for industrial and marine fuel transfer operations. It is the preferred solution for oil terminals, ship-to-shore connections, and refinery loading applications where reliability and safety are paramount.

Key Features

• Designed for 100% Aromatic Fuel Transfer — Handles fuels including petrol, diesel, and MTBE with exceptional resistance and performance.
• Polypropylene Lining — Provides reliable protection against hydrocarbon degradation and permeation.
• Dual Galvanized Steel Wire Reinforcement — Inner and outer wires offer high crush resistance and strength in demanding transfer operations.
• Temperature Range — Operates safely from -20°C to +80°C for consistent performance in variable conditions.
• Safety Factor 4:1 — Built to exceed industrial standards for safety and reliability in petroleum handling applications.
• High Flexibility — Lightweight construction allows for easy handling and installation compared to traditional rubber hoses.
• Distinctive Black Cover — Ensures easy identification and professional appearance in fuel transfer environments.

• Industrial Chemical and Hydrocarbon Transfer Lines

Installation & Maintenance Guidelines

1. Inspect Before Operation: Check for visible wear, crushing, or corrosion before connecting the hose assembly.
2. Ensure Proper Grounding: Ground hoses to prevent static discharge during fuel transfer operations.
3. Use Compatible Fittings: Connect using approved galvanized or stainless-steel fittings for secure sealing.
4. Maintain Bend Radius: Avoid tight bends or kinks to preserve internal structural integrity.
5. Clean After Use: Flush with compatible fluids to prevent buildup and contamination.
6. Store Safely: Keep coiled in a dry, shaded area away from direct sunlight or mechanical stress.
