Rapier is a popular choice with both fire brigades and industrial plant fire protection. It is a high pressure Type 3 fire hose, which is manufactured with an extruded synthetic rubber cover. This extruded cover protects the hose against abrasion and chemical damage.
This woven fire hose is made from polyester with a synthetic rubber lining and cover. The interior lining and exterior coating on the fire hose jacket is made from PVC nitrile. This extruded cover is highly chemical and abrasion resistant. In addition to the practical protection afforded by the polymer cover, the layflat hose is protected from being stained by oils and dirt.
Rapier is very flexible hose with good handling characteristics. Rapier is suitable not only for professional firefighter but also as a strong, high quality layflat for use in plant wash down, mine-dewatering, chemical transfer and as multi-purpose industrial hose. Rapier comes in standard colour red. Other colours are available subject to minimum order quantity.
Rapier hose is manufactured in Australia and carries an approval of Australian Standard AS2792 and Australian Army DEF 5195A Standard.
Please note that this product does NOT include the hose fittings.
