Why is Single Jacket EPDM Attack Hose widely used in various firefighting scenes?

At the fire scene, time is life. Firefighters need to rely on reliable and high-performance equipment to quickly carry out firefighting work in harsh environments. Single Jacket EPDM Attack Hose is one of the core equipment widely used in modern firefighting systems. It combines lightness, heat resistance and excellent water delivery efficiency. It is designed for high-pressure water delivery and rapid deployment. It is widely used in various combat environments such as urban firefighting, industrial parks, airports and forest fire prevention.
Main structural components
Single jacket (Single Jacket)
It is woven from high-strength polyester fiber, with anti-stretching and wear-resistant properties. The overall lightness is easy to deploy quickly.
EPDM lining
Ethylene propylene rubber (EPDM) has excellent resistance to high temperature, ozone and chemical corrosion. It is an ideal choice for durable hose linings and can withstand high temperature water flow and harsh combat environments.
Connection joints
Generally equipped with aluminum alloy quick connectors, which are convenient for connection with water pumps, water guns or other hose components to improve combat efficiency.
Core advantages of the product
High temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance
EPDM material can withstand hot water or steam up to +150℃, and has good resistance to chemicals such as acids and alkalis, suitable for a variety of dangerous scenarios.
Flexible and light, easy to operate
Single Jacket design is lighter than double-layer water hoses, which is convenient for firefighters to carry and deploy quickly, especially suitable for use in high-rise buildings or complex terrain.
Stable water flow and large flow rate
The smooth EPDM inner wall reduces the friction resistance of water flow, making the water flow faster and the spray distance farther, improving the efficiency of firefighting.
High-strength braided layer is resistant to pressure and wear
The outer layer of polyester fiber can withstand higher combat pressure (usually 200-300 PSI), and is also wear-resistant, suitable for combat on rough ground such as cement and sandy ground.
Application areas
Urban fire protection system
High-rise buildings and dense urban areas require lightweight and high-pressure water hoses, and Single Jacket EPDM Attack Hose can respond quickly to emergencies.
Industrial fire protection
Factories, oil depots, chemical storage areas and other places require higher corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance of water hoses, and EPDM water hoses provide reliable protection.
Airport and dock fire protection system
A large area and high demand combat site requires a large flow and fast deployment of water hose combination.
Woodland and field operations
Good flexibility and light weight make it easy to carry and suitable for operations in complex terrains such as mountains and forests.
Usage and maintenance suggestions
Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun: Although EPDM has ozone resistance, long-term high temperature exposure may still affect its service life.
Dry thoroughly after each use: Keeping it dry can prevent mildew and material aging.
Regular pressure testing: Ensure that the water hose has no leaks or expansion deformation under high pressure.
Cleaning and storage: After cleaning the surface dirt, it should be stored flat and coiled to avoid contact with sharp objects.
In extreme environments, firefighters’ dependence on equipment cannot be ignored, and Single Jacket EPDM Attack Hose has become a key tool in efficient firefighting operations with its excellent performance and actual combat performance. It not only improves firefighting efficiency, but also plays an important role in ensuring personnel safety and protecting property. In the future, with the development of firefighting technology, this high-performance hose will continue to be optimized to adapt to more diverse and complex emergency rescue needs.
