Single Jacket Hose

EMACO Single Jacket Lay Flat Fire Hose is a firefighting hose used with hydrants, fire pumps, or fire engines to apply water for firefighting.

The outer jacket is single lined and made from 100% virgin polyester. This layer provides strength and durability against wear and tear, dragging, and environmental damage during firefighting while keeping it flexible for use. The inside of the hose is lined with polyurethane (TPU) or EPDM rubber, which makes the inside smooth for water to easily flow through when in use. The inner and outer layers are bonded using pillar adhesion bonding, which makes them strongly bonded and prevents detaching when bent, rolled or repeatedly used in harsh environments.

The hose uses a lay flat design. When there is no water inside, the hose collapses and stays flat, which can easily be rolled into a coil for carrying or storing. When needed, connect to the water source. Once water flows into the hose, it expands into a round shape that allows water to flow through it and can be used for firefighting.

Single jacket fire hoses are commonly used in situations where lightweight and flexible hoses are needed. They are widely used in industrial facilities, fire hose racks, and emergency response operations.

Typical applications include:

• Industrial firefighting and facility protection
• Fire hose rack assemblies and cabinet systems
• Offshore and marine firefighting
• Emergency response and rescue operations

The outer polyester jacket and elastomer coating helps protect the hose from abrasion, heat, and general environmental damages. This makes the hose resistant to oils, chemicals, sunlight, ozone, fungus, and other environmental exposure. The inner lining is also resistant to salt water, which makes it suitable to be used with seawater in offshore, marine or coastal firefighting environments.
