Looking for a hose to flow a tremendous amount of water? You’ve found it with CONQUEST! Today’s fires are hotter and more water is needed at the nozzle to knock them down fast. Conquest meets that challenge every day. Our patented thru-the-weave extruded polyurethane liner has an incredibly smooth surface that enhances water flow. Typical friction loss reductions of over 50% compared to other hose designs — deliver more water at standard operating pressure.
FEATURES• 100% high tenacity ring-spun polyester outer jacket covering an extruded
thru-the-weave polyurethane inner hose. NO ADHESIVE IS USED and the lining will never delaminate.
• Exclusive Dura-Cote™ treatment (see page 29 for more information).
• Hose remains flexible to temperatures as low as -40ºF (-40ºC) and meets all NFPA requirements for ozone resistance.
• Passes 34" doorway kink test at 50 psi (345 kPa) nozzle pressure.
• Suitable for CAFS and foam concentrates.
• Optional color-coded stripe of one contrasting color can be woven into the outer jacket running the full length of the hose for identification purposes.
• Manufactured in accordance with NFPA 1961 Standard, latest edition within our ISO-9001:2015 certified quality assurance system.

PREMIUM HOSE. OUTSTANDING VALUE.Supreme is a durable, rugged, traditional double jacket fire hose and one of the best values on the market today. Originally designed over 40 years ago, Supreme has become the host to which all others are compared. With hose sizes up to 3" and manufactured to exacting standards, our use of ring-spun polyester yarn with a flexible rubber liner and calendered rubber backing, keeps this hose supple when empty and tough when necessary.
FEATURES• Premium quality, double jacket, EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer)
rubber lined fire hose made from 100% high tensile strength ring-spun polyester yarn. The liner is attached to the inner jacket using a vulcanized calendared rubber backing that mechanically and chemically bonds the EPDM rubber lining to the inside jacket without the use of glues, and provides the assurance that the lining will not delaminate. Calendar backed hoses are more flexible and have a higher heat resistance than other hoses using a Thermoplastic (TPU) adhesive.
• Optional Dura-Cote™ treatment (see page 29 for more information).
• Remains flexible to temperatures as low as -40ºF (-40ºC) and is resistant to ozone and oxidation.
• Optional color-coded stripe of one contrasting color can be woven into the outer jacket running the full length of the hose for identification purposes.
• Kink resistance exceeds that of lightweight jacketed hose.
• Suitable for use with CAFS and foam solutions.
• Manufactured in accordance with NFPA 1961 Standard, latest edition within our ISO-9001:2015 certified quality assurance system.

ATTACK, SUPPLY, RELAY – ALL-IN-ONE HOSENot sure you want rubber LDH (Large Diameter Hose)? National Fire Hose Triple Duty gives you a double jacket alternative. The extruded thru-the-weave polyurethane liner is lighter than rubber, and the nylon 6.6 outer jacket, treated with our exclusive Dura-Cote™ abrasion resistant treatment, provides the durability you need. The result is a tough, double jacket woven hose weighing a lot less than other LDH hose and packs tighter, requiring less hose bed space.
FEATURES:• Large diameter, double jacket municipal fire hose with both jackets made from
100% high-strength, low stretch, filament nylon along with an extruded thru-the-weave inner hose liner of thermoplastic polyurethane. NO ADHESIVE IS USED and the lining will never delaminate.
• Reverse twill weave of the inner jacket provides a smoother waterway and superior liner system.
• Standard Dura-Cote™ treatment applied (see page 29 for more information).
• Hose remains flexible to temperatures as low as -40ºF (-40ºC) and is highly resistant to ozone and oxidation.
• Specifically engineered for attack, supply and relay operations – a truly universal fire hose.
• The polyurethane lining material meets NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for drinking water.
• Manufactured in accordance with NFPA 1961 Standard, latest edition within our ISO-9001:2015 certified quality assurance system.

KRYPTONITE™ LDH gives fire departments that extra edge, in flow and support — all in a high-visibility lightweight supply line. A tough polyurethane outer cover combines with an exclusive thru-the-weave liner to offer greater resistance to punctures and abrasion. But it doesn’t stop there. Kryptonite is compact, taking up less room in the hose bed, and durable — with higher resistance to oils, chemicals and ozone. Snag proof and kink resistant, Kryptonite will not mildew or rot and is guaranteed for life to never delaminate.
FEATURESTypical rubber extruded fire hose can vary in thickness, becoming bulky and heavy. Kryptonite™ LDH incorporates a circular woven polyester jacket that is completely encapsulated by a special urethane polymer that provides superior abrasion and puncture resistance while remaining extremely light and service worthy.

UNIQUE 3-PLY CONSTRUCTIONTraditionally, manufactured extruded hose can vary in thickness, becoming bulky and heavy. TPX utilizes a 3-ply design where the ribbed cover and smooth nitrile liner are extruded independently. The cover is inserted inside the tight-weave reinforcement, vulcanized, and then turned inside out. The liner is then inserted and the hose is vulcanized for a second time to form a bond of all three plies, guaranteeing a consistent, compact hose wall.
FEATURES:• 3-ply rubber municipal fire hose with
both the cover and liner made of heavy duty nitrile rubber, high tensile strength tightly woven polyester reinforcement for maximum durability and flexibility.
• Smooth liner keeps friction loss to a minimum.
• Nitrile rubber cover greatly increases abrasion resistance, provides long service life and the tightly woven reinforcement resists puncture.
• Suitable for attack, supply and soft sleeve suction applications.
• Remains flexible to temperatures as low as -20ºF (-29ºC) and is resistant to ozone, oxidation and most chemicals and petrochemicals.
• Tighter weave allows more resistance to puncture while also being easier to pack and store.
• Lays flat and needs less hose bed space than typical extruded hose.
• Manufactured in accordance with NFPA 1961 Standard, latest edition within our ISO-9001:2015 certified quality assurance system.

EXTRUDED NITRILE RUBBER ATTACK/SUPPLY HOSEHFX is a nitrile thru-the-weave, rubber covered fire hose that utilizes both polyester and nylon 6.6 yarn in the reinforcing jacket. Under pressure, the polyester keeps the hose from “snaking” where 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 weft yarns.
FEATURES:• Extruded thru-the-weave, nitrile
rubber fire hose. The reinforcement is made with a blend of circular woven, twill weave, polyester and nylon fibers.
• The ribs on the cover surface greatly increase abrasion resistance and help provide a long service life.
• Remains flexible to temperatures as low as -20ºF (-29ºC) and is resistant to ozone, oxidation and most chemicals and petrochemicals.
• Highly resistant to both contact and radiant heat.
• Suitable for attack, supply, soft sleeve suction and relay applications.
• Unique extruded thru-the-weave construction provides a flexible, easy to maneuver hose that is easy to pack.
• Manufactured in accordance with NFPA 1961 Standard, latest edition within our ISO-9001:2015 certified quality assurance system.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT HOSEWhen it comes to ensuring firefighter safety and optimum performance on the fire ground, choosing the right fire hose is essential. While there are uni-versal industry hose specifications, it’s important to consider your department’s size and workload (are you fighting two blazes a month or two a day?) and environmental and working conditions (high rise fires or forest fires?) in order to select the best hose to meet your exact needs.
THE CHECKLIST:✔ Choose certified hose.Fire hose should meet these industry requirements:• NFPA 1961 Standard on Fire Hose, latest edition• NFPA 1962 Standard for the Care, Use, Inspection, Testing of Fire Hose, latest edition• NFPA 1963 Standard for Fire Hose Connections, latest editionA certified hose manufacturer i.e. ISO 9000 Certified Quality Management System✔ Choose a reputable manufacturer.The hose should be 100% made in the Unites States of America and all components should be made in house, starting from quality raw materials all the way through to final proof test.✔ Ask about hose service tracking.It is critical to maintain tracking and service test records for hoses to ensure safety in the field.✔ Insist on quality couplings.The hose manufacturer should use a quality, USA coupling manufacturer. The hose manufacturer should couple and proof test every length and provide certification.✔ Match hose performance ratings to your exact user requirements (see Comparative Guide on next page):• Operating pressure• Supply or attack rating• Friction loss• Flow data• ID of fire hose• Compact/packing of the hose • Hose weight• Kinking properties• Abrasion resistance properties• Heat and/or burn-through resistance properties• Coating and colors per NFPA 1901✔ Take a test drive.Before purchasing, and before the time of the bid, request whole length samples for evaluation to inspect quality, markings and performance of the fire hose proposed for your department. Contact our Regional Sales Manager in your area for a water flow hose evaluation.✔ Insist on a quality guarantee.Do your homework. Make sure the hose is backed by a warranty guarantee and check customer service ratings. Additionally, verify if there is a Lifetime
Delamination Warranty (see previous page).
FIRE HOSE CARE & HANDLING RECOMMENDATIONSAll-American Hose products are built to meet the highest quality specifications for superior performance and durability. The following everyday care and handling recommendations will help to ensure a long service life from your product:• All hose should be kept out of direct sunlight in a well-ventilated location, and should be drained and thoroughly dried before storage.• When rolling coiled hose, be sure male coupling is on the inside to avoid thread damage.• Any hose stored in a hose bed should be loaded by laying the hose flat—never on its edge or fold. Lay the hose across the bed in alternating
layers, rather than loading one row of hose all the way to the top of the hose bed.• Hose should be removed and reloaded on the hose bed at least once every six months to allow for visual inspection.• Avoid dragging hose along its edge or fold, as this causes excessive abrasion of the outer jacket.• Never drive over the hose unless it is bridged and the vehicle has sufficient ground clearance to cross the bridged hose.• Maximum advised operating/working pressure should not exceed 90% of the Service Test pressure, which is stenciled on the hose.
