GLOTEK™

 A unique municipal hose that incorporates reflective filaments woven directly into the warp (on both sides of the hose) for a durable reflective stripe that will not fade or wear off during normal use. Any light source such as vehicle headlights or high intensity flashlights will be reflected back over a wide variety of angles. This enables the illuminated object to be seen at great distances and from many different angles thereby enabling it to be traced to its source.
 

Construction: Circular woven, double jacket 100% virgin spun polyester.
Tube: Extruded T.P.U. elastomer - Ozone and age resistant.
Length: Up to 100' (30,5 m).
Jacket Treatment: ENCAP™ encapsulation available in white (clear),
yellow, tan or orange. Provides water repellency, abrasion, oil and chemical resistance.
Option: Lightweight extruded E.P.D.M. rubber - Ozone and age resistant.

 

GLOTEK™ specifications
bullet

Available in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and 2 1/2" (38, 45, 64 mm) sizes only.

bullet

The hose shall be of double jacket construction with 100% virgin spun polyester yarn in both jackets.

bullet

There shall also be a minimum of 10.0 filler yarns per inch in both the inner and outer jackets.

bullet

The reflective stripe shall be constructed with reflective filaments featuring 3M Scotchlite™ reflective materials and directly woven into the warp.

bullet

The thickness of the lining shall be 0.015" (381 µm) minimum and it shall be constructed of extruded T.P.U. elastomer. If the lightweight extruded E.P.D.M. rubber lining is used, the lining thickness shall be 0.022" (55,9 µm) minimum. The outside jacket shall be treated with ENCAP™ elastomer, which shall completely encapsulate the jacket fibers and not merely surface coat the jacket.
