Fire Hose
Double Jacket Fire Hose
Double jacket fire hose carries two layers of woven synthetic yarn instead of one, which is what lets it work at markedly higher pressure than a single jacket hose.
Product Overview
What This Hose Is Built To Do
Double jacket fire hose carries two layers of woven synthetic yarn instead of one, which is what lets it work at markedly higher pressure than a single jacket hose. The liner can be TPU, EPDM, NBR or natural rubber, so the temperature rating follows the liner chosen. It is made from 1.5 to 6 inch in 20 m and 30 m lengths, and is used for forest firefighting and snow making.
Key Benefits
- Two woven jackets raise pressure capability over a single jacket hose of the same bore
- Four liner materials mean the hose can be matched to cold, heat or chemical exposure
- Resistant to kinking and twisting, which is what usually stops flow at the nozzle
- Long service life where hose is charged and recharged through a season

Customization Options
- Colour made to order alongside the standard range
- OEM and ODM printing of your brand, with exclusive protection of your designs
- Length cut to the run you specify rather than a fixed stock length
- Couplings fitted before shipment and pressure tested as one assembly
Use Guide
- Select the liner by exposure: TPU for cold, EPDM for heat, NBR for oil, natural rubber for general duty
- Avoid sharp bends at the coupling where the jackets are stiffest
- Flush the line after use on dirty or chemically treated water
- Dry fully before rolling so the jackets do not hold moisture
- Pressure test in service on the schedule your brigade requires

Questions About the Double Jacket Fire Hose
How much more pressure does a double jacket take
It is built to handle much higher pressure than a single jacket hose. The exact rating depends on size and liner, and we confirm it against your specification.
Which liner materials can you supply
TPU, EPDM, NBR and natural rubber.
What sizes do you make
1.5 to 6 inch.
What is the temperature range
It follows the liner material chosen, so we confirm it once the liner is fixed.
What colours are available
White, yellow and red are standard, with other colours to order.
Is it tested before shipment
Yes. Layflat hose is tested at 1.5 times working pressure for 2 hours before packing.
