Snap-Tite TPX Hose

3-PLY NITRILE RUBBER ATTACK/SUPPLY HOSE

Lean and mean, Snap-Tite TPX hose is the ultra-tough municipal rubber fire hose you have been looking for—but without the bulk and weight.  Traditionally manufactured extruded hose can vary in thickness, becoming bulky and heavy.  TPX’s unique 3-ply design features a ribbed cover and smooth nitrile liner that are extruded independently.  The cover is inserted inside the tight-weave polyester reinforcement, vulcanized, then turned inside-out. The liner is then inserted and the hose is vulcanized a second time to form a bond of all three plies, guaranteeing a consistent, compact hose wall.  This makes the lightweight TPX more resistant to puncture and easier to pack and store, requiring less hose bed space than typical extruded hose.  Snap-Tite TPX is aso highly resistant to both conductive and radiant heat.
