Kuriyama Fire Products FOREST LITE Single Jacket Fire Hose, 1" X 50 Ft, 300 PSI, White

Armored Textiles N55H1F50N FOREST LITE Single Jacket Fire Hose, 1″ X 50 Ft, 300 PSI, White

Forest Lite is a single jacket, polyurethane-lined lightweight hose intended for use in wild land fire suppression. It meets or exceeds NFPA 1961 Fire Hose Standard, 2013 edition.

Diameters: Forest Lite is available in 1″ and 1.5″ diameters.

Jacket Construction: The jacket is virgin spun high tenacity polyester. The outer jacket is thoroughly impregnated with a polymer compound to provide superior resistance to chemicals, abrasion and ultraviolet light. Compound is heat set at 250° F. Lining: The thermoplastic lining shall be a single-ply extruded tube and shall be unaffected by ozone. The finished form shall be free of pits or other imperfections and shall have a smooth finish. No reclaimed material shall be used. The tensile strength of the liner shall not be less than 2000 psi, with an maximum elongation of 10 percent.

Adhesion: The adhesion between the liner and the inside jacket is such that the rate of separation of a 1.5″ wide strip cut transversely, shall not be greater than 1″ per minute over a period of ten minutes, under a weight of 12 pounds.

Accelerated Aging: Lining specimens subjected to an exposure of 158° F +/- 3.6° F, for a duration of 96 hours shall be conditioned to ASTM D 573, Standard Test Method for Rubber – Deterioration in an Air Oven. Then, the specimens shall be tested to ASTM D4112, Standard Test Methods for Vulanized Rubber and Thermoplastic Elastomers- Tension, Method A. Under evaluation, the tensile and elongation properties of the liner shall not be less than 75% of their initial values.

Couplings: Expansion-type in either hard coat anodized aluminum or brass are available. NST couplings are standard; one quarter turn couplings are available by special order. All couplings meet NFPA 1963, Standard for Fire Hose Connections, 2009 edition. damage to jacket or lining when subjected to the following cold bend test: A 3-foot section of hose shall be exposed to a temperature of-40° F for a period of 24 hours. At the end of the exposure period, the hose shall be rapidly bent 180 degrees back onto itself, first one way and then the other. Following this procedure, the hose shall not leak, nor show any damage to the jacket when subjected to the burst pressure shown above.

Heat Resistance: The ability of the hose to resist heat shall be verified using the test procedures defined in UL 19, Lined Fire Hose and Hose Assemblies, Heat-Resistance Test; FM Class Number 2111, Factory Mutual Approval Standard for Fire Hose, Heat Resistance.

Warranty: ATI warranties both the hose and couplings to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of 10 years. Upon evaluation, hose found to be defective will be repaired or replaced by ATI at no charge to the fire department.
