HDPE Floating Docks

In addition to our proven line of steel tube floating dock systems, Kropf Marine is pleased to also offer floating docks utilizing high density polyethylene pipes. These pipes, manufactured by Highland Floats, are the highest quality HDPE float pipe on the market. We have combined these floats with a robust dock frame featuring aluminum cross members, bolted stringers, and double-thick bolted skirt boards. The result is the stiffest, strongest, most stable HDPE pipe floating dock available.

HDPE Pipe Floating Docks

Our HDPE pipe floating docks feature robust formed aluminum cross-members, so you are not relying on wood framing for the dock's structural integrity. 4" x 4" treated stringers are bolted to the aluminum crossers, as are twin 2" x 8" treated skirt boards. This framing ensures a dock that is robust and stiff, providing a more stable platform for you to enjoy. A variety of decking options are available for you to choose from.

Our HDPE float pipes feature a minimum wall thickness of 0.5", with 1" thick end caps that are fusion-welded to the pipes, ensuring a durable finished float.

The pipes are banded to the aluminum crossers using rolled stainless steel pipe bands, securely fastened into the sub-frame.

Our standard floats are 18" diameter, and come in 20', 24, and 30' lengths. Custom lengths and sizes are available depending on the project.

Our HDPE pipe floats are UV stabilized, resistant to a wide range of temperatures, and can be subjected to freeze/thaw cycles.

Sections are connected together using interlocking piano-style hinges with heavy-duty stainless steel pins. This hinge design provides a strong and silent connection, and prevents the "oblonging" of holes that is common to traditional plate hinge ears.

Our HDPE pipe floating docks are available with your choice of decking materials and finishes, including a variety of cleats, fenders, lights, and other accessories.

We offer a truly commercial-grade HDPE pipe dock system, that is designed to maximize the advantages of using HDPE pipe to provide an extended service life.
