A unique fire hose designed by firefighters for maximum performance and dependability. POWERLINE® is a 100% polyester double jacket, 400 PSIG (2800 kPa) service test pressure rated fire hose, with an EPDM rubber liner. The outer jacket of spun polyester is constructed using a patented polymeric infusion process that produces superior kink resistance and water flow. Patent No. 6336473 applies. While lighter in weight than most of its competitors, POWERLINE® is resistant to cuts, snags, punctures, and abrasion. this unique product is being widely used in extreme attack hose applications. The bright yellow ENCAPTM outer jacket with blue woven stripe enhances the visibility of this hose in all conditions. Test POWERLINE® and convince your fire department of its value.
Length: Up to 100' (30,5 m).
POWERLINE® specifications
The hose shall be of double jacket construction with 100% virgin spun polyester yarn in both jackets.
There shall also be a minimum of 10.0 filler yarns per inch for the 1½" and 1¾" (38 and 45 mm) sizes, and a minimum of 11.0 filler
yarns per inch in both the inner and outer jackets for the 2" and 2 1/2" (51 and 64 mm) sizes.
The thickness of the lining shall be 0.022" (559 µm) minimum and it shall be constructed of lightweight extruded E.P.D.M. rubber.
The outside jacket shall be treated with ENCAP elastomer, which shall completely encapsulate the jacket fibers and not merely
surface coat the jacket. It shall have a blue ¾" (19 mm) wide stripe woven into it.
The hose service temperature range shall be -40°F to 175°F (-40°C to 79°C).
FM abrasion test of 30,000 cycles minimum and Taber abrasion test of 15,000 cycles minimum.
At 800 PSIG (5600 kPa), its elongation shall not exceed 10% of the initial hose length, it shall not warp more than 20 inches (51 cm) and should not rise from the test table.
The hose shall not twist more than 3 turns for the 1½" and 1¾" (38 and 45 mm) sizes and 2 turns per 50 ft (15,2 m) while at 800 PSIG (5600 kPa) for the 2" and 2 1/2" (51 & 64 mm) sizes.
Minimum service test pressure of 400 PSIG (2800 kPa).
Minimum proof test pressure of 800 PSIG (5600 kPa).
Minimum straight burst test pressure of 1200 PSIG (8400 kPa).
The hose while curved to a radius of 27" (69 cm) shall not burst at less than 1200 PSIG (8400 kPa).
