Fire Hose

When it comes to safety, reliability and rapid response, fire hose assemblies are an essential part of any firefighting or water transfer system. We supply a comprehensive range of high-performance fire hoses, each designed to deliver dependable flow and withstand the demanding pressures and temperatures often encountered in emergency and industrial environments.

• High Pressure Capability: Designed to handle working pressures of up to 40 bar (depending on model), providing a reliable supply under critical conditions.
• Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-tenacity polyester yarn with inner linings of rubber or synthetic materials such as SBR or NBR, offering exceptional flexibility and resistance to abrasion and weathering.
• Temperature Performance: Suitable for use across a wide temperature range - typically from -30°C to +80°C, ensuring consistent performance in challenging climates.
• Secure Connections: Each hose assembly is supplied with robust couplings such as BS336 instantaneous fittings, wire-whipped for additional safety and long service life.
• Compliance & Quality: Manufactured to recognised standards such as BS 6391 Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3, depending on the product type and intended use.

Fire hose assemblies are used in a wide variety of settings where reliable water delivery is critical:

• Municipal and industrial fire brigades for firefighting and emergency response
• Marine and offshore environments for deck wash-down and safety systems
• Agriculture and irrigation for high-volume water transfer
• Construction and civil engineering for site wash-down, dust suppression and water pumping
• General industrial use where durable, flexible hoses are required to handle large water volumes

Selecting the correct fire hose depends on the environment, pressure requirements, and connection type:

• Material: Coated polyester hoses offer enhanced resistance to dirt, oil and UV exposure - ideal for outdoor or industrial use - while uncoated hoses remain lightweight and easy to handle.
• Temperature Range: Consider your operating environment - SBR-lined hoses perform well in standard conditions, whereas NBR linings provide improved resistance to heat and chemicals.
• Fittings: BS336 instantaneous couplings are the standard for fire and rescue operations, while threaded or flanged options are preferred in fixed installations or industrial systems.
• Length and Diameter: Larger diameters allow higher flow rates, suitable for hydrant connections or deluge systems, whereas smaller sizes are better for hand-held or portable use.
