DURA-COTE™. YOUR ADVANTAGE ON THE FIREGROUND.
Exclusive Dura-Cote™ hose treatment creates a virtually impenetrable shield that increases hose performance and durability, while extending service life. Dura-Cote is a nitrile/latex (emulsified rubber) material that is force applied—not sprayed—and cross-linked via a high temperature curing process.
Protective Dura-Cote provides superior abrasion, heat and chemical resistance, far surpassing the minimal standards of MIL-H-24606B. Compared to competitive coatings made of urethane or acrylic, nitrile/latex has remarkably better flexibility and ultra-low temperature maneuverability.
• Ten times (10X) more abrasion resistant vs. untreated hose
• Five times (5X) greater flame resistance vs. untreated hose
• Resistant to solvents, oil and other hydrocarbons
• Prevents water pick-up
• Eliminates fungal growth
• U.V. and ozone resistant
• Available in seven vibrant colors for clear identification
