Usually these single jacket fire hoses are kept on hand in municipal & forestry departments or construction sites for heavy duty jobs.  Structural firefighters typically choose larger double jacket hoses for firefighting for the added durability and longer lifespan.  But these wildland hoses are the best choice if you need high flexibility and speed in hectic brushed situations.  The type II hoses are designed to be hauled off in your carrying packs when you're running toward the action.

Uses:

• Fire Departments
• Heavy Duty Industrial Projects
• General Water Pumping
• Agricultural / Irrigation
• Wash Down
• Fire Hydrants
• Sump & Trash Pumps
• Valves & Standpipes

If you're moving these hoses around day to day, 50 foot lengths are the best way to go.  They are lightweight enough to carry around and roll up.  For applications where you set the hoses for extended periods of time, the 100 foot lengths are more economical. 

Will This Hose Fit My  Garden Hose Outlet?  Which Connectors Do I need?

• This hose will fit all standard garden hose outlets.
• Use adapters if you are connecting to a hydrant, pump, standpipe, or other outlet that is not equipped with a GHT.

Can I Use A Nozzle With This Hose?

Absolutely you can!  3/4" Inch fire hoses are designed to work with spray nozzles.  For this particular hose, you'll need a 3/4" inch fire hose nozzle equipped with 3/4" fittings. 

You can check the 3/4" Garden Hose Nozzle Here.  Spray nozzles are normally used for wash down, emergency fire fighting, dust control, transferring water to hard to reach places, or even as a shut off valve. 

A true firefighting nozzle will be constructed from high quality metals and have higher psi ratings.  The popular plastic red fire nozzles are made for residential uses and should only be used for firefighting in emergencies.  They are rated to handle 100psi (NFPA requirements for firefighting) and has 3 settings: straight stream, fog, and shut off.  Check the graphic below for a better look.
