STATEMENT: FireQuip Full Flow is a tough heavy duty hose but lightweight that provides very low friction loss with maximum flow. It is manufactured with 100% tightly woven polyester yarn making it tough and abrasion resistant. The special lining process that welds the lining directly to the yarn while being woven creates an inseparable bond without adhesives. The waterway is smooth, filling in the corrugations of the weave, which results in low friction loss, with more water to the fire at lower pump pressure. Full Flow is light and compact but yet extremely heavy duty. FireQuip Full Flow puts greater volumes of water to the fire without over-working the firefighter or the fire engine.

Fire hose is one of the most important tools used by the fire department. As such, the following specification must be strictly adhered to unless the proposed specification exceeds specification listed. Only the fire department can determine if a proposed product meets and exceeds these specifications The Quick One The hose that must be relied upon for fast and reliable fire attack before the small localized fire can grow out of control. Firefighters demand performance the first time and every time. Pressure Contraction and Elongation When pressurized, a poorly constructed hose may contract or elongate. This can endanger a firefighter in a high place or in a tight spot. It can also damage equipment such as hose reels which can actually be crushed. FireQuip Booster Hose is made with precision reinforcement angles to control length change under pressure to avoid these problems. Durable, Bright Red Cover It looks good and lasts longer for overall better cost effectiveness and reliability. The cover shall be EPDM rubber, which resists abrasion, gouging, ultra-violet, ozone aging and heat. Long Lengths Firequip Fire Engine Booster Hose is produced in continuous lengths of 200 feet for 1 inch hose and 300 feet for inch. This reduces the number of coupling connectors required, reducing cost and increasing hose integrity. Full 4:1 Safety Factor You must require a 4:1 safety factor for your booster hose to insure safety and reliability. This means 800 Booster Hose must be rated for 3200 minimum burst pressure. A lesser grade hose cannot be relied upon to handle pressure surges, end pull, kinking and other abuse, coupling retention and aging. Meets UL 92 Design and Performance Criteria Firequip Fire Engine Booster Hose meets or exceeds the requirements listed in UL 92 specification for 800 PSI Booster Hose. The manufacturer shall be ISO 9001-2008 Quality Certified.
