The introduction of the Fourth Edition of the Oil Companies International Marine Forum (OCIMF 1991) specified the required internal geometry of submarine hose floats. Now floats are fully interchangeable as all hoses constructed to the OCIMF 1991 specification must use standard sized collars. We manufacture a range of submarine hose floats to comply with this specification. The design incorporates years of experience and has been developed in conjunction with the world's leading hose manufacturers and system operators. Our OCIMF float is a significantly improved product offering optimum durability and flexibility.

The floats are manufactured using the most advanced production methods and the highest qualtiy materials. We manufacture the floats from the inside out. The solid foam core is manufactured then encapsulated in a tough resilient outer polyurethane shell producing a significantly superior product.
 
The range comprises seven different sizes, each to suit the hose size of the hose collars specified in the OCIMF regulations, namely 471mm, 495mm, 581mm, 697mm, 799mm, 876mm and 946mm.
 
The floats fully comply with all other requirements of the OCIMF specification including hose collar width, securing metalwork specification, markings and hydrostatic pressure testing requirements.
