Our 1 1/2 inch yellow forestry fire hose with aluminum NH/NST threaded couplings is manufactured to meet and exceed all performance requirements of NFPA 1961 and USDA 5100-187c Type II also known as US Forestry Service Specification 5100-187c Type II or FSS 5100-187c Type II. Meets or exceeds ULC-S518.1-11.
Polymer yellow coating improves durability over uncoated white Type I forestry hose and increases mildew resistance… no drying necessary.
This wildland fire hose features a TPU (polyurethane) lining to reduce friction loss and deliver more water. The TPU lining also reduces weight and allows the hose to pack flat for easy transport. Hose remains flexible to -65 F (-45 C).
How To Purchase Fire Hose
