Hydraulic piping

The need for quality hydraulic installation onboard vessels operating in severe marine environment has led to the development and manufacturing of Framo hydraulic piping systems. The hydraulic piping system is based on high quality components and piping materials.

Quality and competence

Duplex stainless steel on all high pressure branch pipes and pilot pipes on deck. Stainless steel AISI 316L on all low pressure hydraulic pipes on deck. 

The hydraulic pipes are of high standard with smooth internal surface intended for hydraulic oil with high cleanliness. All service valves are made from stainless steel. 

The Framo hydraulic piping system is designed with extensive use of cold bending in order to limit the number of flanged connections.

Framo supply specially designed flanges for all pressure ratings, flexible bulkhead penetrations, resilient pipe clamps, anchor supports, and other accessories for the hydraulic piping system.

Framo AS has a highly specialized manufacturing plant in Norway for the design and manufacture of all components in the hydraulic piping system.

Prefabrication of the piping system to any level of complexity from a single spool piece to a full system is available.

In all areas of design special attention is given to reduce vibrations and noise from components and pumps. The cargo pumps, hydraulic power units and hydraulic piping are all resilient installed.
