Firepower™ II
Aggressive Interior Attack Hose

Firepower™ II is an interior attack

fire hose with the performance
needed for the aggressive tactics
employed by firefighters of today.
Firepower II is a responsive, alert
feeling attack hose with unmatched
flexibility and kink resistance.
Unlike other conventional attack
hoses, Firepower II gives
unprecedented superior
performance and reduces strain on
firefighters, even in the tightest and
most demanding environments.

Unbeatable and Revolutionary Anti-Kink
Performance
• Passes 34", 24" and 18", doorway kink test.
• Loops to 11" before kink ensuring no line
failure or loss of flow in the tightest of
environments, even at 100 PSI line pressure.

Extraordinary Abrasion Resistance

• Our innovative ARMOUR JACKET coating
demonstrates virtually no sign of wear when
subjected to the standard FM & UL Abrasion
test. Firepower II is available with this
coating in yellow, red, orange, blue, green
and tan.

Significantly Reduced Drag Resistance

• Measurably less drag resistance over other
conventional hose causing less strain on
users.

Superb Water Resistant Jacket

• Our innovative ARMOUR JACKET coating
and uniquely woven jacket drastically
reduces water pickup over conventional
hose; therefore significantly reducing overall
weight of a hose line in use.
• Special coating provides enhanced protection
from chemicals.

Outstanding Heat Resistance

Performance
• Six times more heat resistance over other
conventional hoses when subjected to the
Angus Heated Constant Load Test.
• Through-the-weave rubber inner liners
withstand very high temperatures. TPU liners
will fail long before rubber liners when
subjected to direct heat.

Specialized Construction & Physical

Characteristics
• Through-the-weave rubber liner providing
incredible puncture resistance, ultimate
resistance to heat and maintains low friction
loss performance.
• Uniquely woven synthetic outer jacket
providing tough abrasion resistance, low drag
resistance and incredible anti-kink
performance.
• Light weight hose makes it easy to use and
very easy to roll with an extremely compact
rolled coil diameter.
• Provides outstanding performance for CAFS
operations.

Hi-Combat II™

Hi-Combat II™ is the ultimate in

fire fighting hose technology for
aggressive interior combat
operations. Its unique 4-part
construction design gives
professional combat firefighters
the performance, flexibility and
endurance to deal with the
toughest challenges.

With higher kink, heat, abrasion

and chemical resistance, lower
drag coefficiency and unique anti-
burst technology, Hi-Combat II’s
super powerful attributes set
standards for fire hose that every
fire fighter deserves.

Hi-Combat II™
Fire Hose for aggressive interior combat operations
• Friction loss at 200 gpm is over 15% less than regular 1-3/4"
hose.
• Kink Resistance exceeds that of conventional jacketed hose.
• Drag Coefficiency is the lowest of any fire hose we have
tested making it easier to pull during attack operations.
• Abrasion resistant outer jacket is designed and
manufactured to withstand a minimum of 2000 cycles on the
U.L. abrasion test and 12,000 cycles on the F.M abrasion
test programs.
• Anti-burst Technology ensures it will not burst
catastrophically even with a 1/2" diameter hole through both
the jacket and liner.
• Hi-Combat can withstand a surface temperature of 1000°F
for a minimum of 45 seconds, at a static pressure of 100 psi.
• Cold Resistant to at least -36°F.
• Chemical Resistant liner protects from exposure to water
and contamination by most chemical substances,
hydrocarbons, oils and grease.
• Available as 1-3/4" line and 2-1/2" big flow line, ideal for
master stream operations and high rise fire fighting.
