HFX™

Resilient and Reliable

Extruded nitrile rubber attack hose

HFX™ is a nitrile thru-the-weave, rubber covered fire hose that utilizes polyester and nylon 6.6 yarn in the reinforcing jacket. Under pressure, the polyester keeps the hose from snaking, while the nylon allows for controlled dilation, reducing friction loss, and generating higher flow rates. Our special rubber compound provides a tough cover that resists heat, abrasion, snags, and hot embers. The interlocking matrix also means no adhesives are used and there is a permanent bond to all the warp and USA MADE weft yarns. The Snap-tite HFX™ is highly resistant to both conductive and radiant heat.
