Fire hoses are an integral part of fire-fighting equipment of buildings, trains and ships, as well as the vehicles of fire fighting services.

Fire hose is a flexible pipeline with couplings for transportation of fire-extinguishing agents.

Types of fire hoses:

�         Suction hose. This is a specific type of fire hose used in drafting operations, when a fire engine uses a vacuum to draw water from a portable water tank, pool, or other static water source.
   �         Suction and pressure hose. This is a soft textile hose frame with a spring steel spiral and soft cuffs for attaching to the valve. They are designed for suction or injection of fluids using a pump.
   �        Flexible pressure hose, used for transportation of water under overpressure.

Note. When stored, fire hoses must be rolled up for maximum safety (regardless of the material and functional purposes).

   Note. When stored in a roll, fire hoses become flat, crack, break and lose their efficiency.

To keep hoses in the proper form, they need rerolling.

The group of companies "Fire Union" rerolls fire hoses in accordance with applicable requirements and regulations. After work we represent a sample of the desired act on hoses rerolling on a new bedroll.
