A PROPRIETARY JACKETED HOSE WITH BEST IN CLASS HEAT RESISTANCE
The way firefighters view their hoses is changing. Fires are burning hotter, and extinguishing the fire faster is the name of the game. But what advances have been made to manufacture a hose that can withstand the actual thermal conditions it will be exposed to on the fireground? Snap-tite Hose is changing the narrative. Fire hoses are often the last line of defense for a firefighter and is another form of PPE for our brave heroes. A hose that can literally stand the heat while performing exceptionally? We made it. Our testing shows our Gladiator FIRE MASTER (FGM) hose withstands conditions similar to that of an actual fire. A hose like this can increase survivability of both firefighters and civilians. For more than 50 years, Snap-tite Hose has led the industry in safety and performance, with a commitment to high standards in manufacturing and testing. The Gladiator FM hose is our response to prevent more burn-through tragedies, because your life is worth it.
