Hydrauli-Flex Hoses Power ICE® Equipment in River Boat Ramp Installation Project

At The Hose Company, we understand the importance of high-quality, reliable hydraulic hoses in the performance of heavy equipment. As manufacturers of Hydrauli-Flex hoses, we take pride in providing durable solutions for tough, demanding applications. A recent project in collaboration with Mumford and Miller Concrete, Inc. exemplifies the vital role our hoses play in powering the equipment that gets the job done efficiently.

Mumford and Miller Concrete, Inc. has been servicing both commercial and residential clients for over 40 years. Known for their experience and expertise in concrete projects, they have a reputation for delivering top-notch services. When a residential customer with 5 acres of land called for help with installing a river boat ramp, Mumford and Miller turned to ICE® Equipment for the machinery they would need.

To begin the job, the team used the ICE® 216 Vibratory Pile Driver/Extractor, a powerful piece of equipment designed to drive piles into the ground with precision and ease. In this case, they needed to drive 25' vinyl piles into the riverbed, creating a protective barrier wall. To achieve this, the team sometimes drove the piles in pairs, ensuring the wall was solid and stable.

Once the barrier wall was securely in place, the customer took a more hands-on approach. Using his own resources, he poured the concrete for the ramp, with the option of adding stones for fill to complete the job. By being self-sufficient, this property owner managed to keep the overall cost of the project around $25K while significantly increasing the property’s value by over $100K.

The durability and reliability of the driven vinyl piles will help shield the boat ramp from erosion caused by the coursing river. These piles will remain in place for years to come, protecting the ramp and maintaining its structural integrity. This project highlights the importance of both high-quality equipment and the right tools, including the Hydrauli-Flex hoses from The Hose Company.

Hydraulic hoses, such as the ones used with ICE® Vibratory Hammers and Drills, are integral to the performance of this type of equipment. These hoses are responsible for transferring hydraulic fluid, which powers the equipment's operations. Without top-tier hoses, the efficiency and reliability of the machines would be compromised. Hydrauli-Flex hoses provide that critical connection, ensuring that ICE® equipment operates smoothly, even in the most challenging environments.

At The Hose Company, our commitment to providing high-quality Hydrauli-Flex hoses ensures that our clients' equipment runs optimally, enabling contractors like Mumford and Miller Concrete, Inc. to deliver successful projects like this one.
