Description
Through the Weave PVC Fire Hose, Nitrile/PVC, Red, 300 PSI, 50 and 100 Ft
This red nitrile fire hose assembly is a 1-1/2 inch through the weave layflat PVC fire hose for municipal fire departments, industrial facilities, petrochemical plants, and forestry operations. The nitrile/PVC compound is extruded through the woven reinforcement, encapsulating the jacket to create a solid-wall hose with no separate liner to delaminate.
Unlike conventional EPDM-lined fire hose, this through the weave fire hose permanently bonds the nitrile/PVC compound through the woven reinforcement. The result is a chemical resistant fire hose that handles abrasion, oil, fuel, weathering, and ozone while remaining lightweight and easy to deploy.
Each nitrile pvc fire hose assembly is fitted with 1-1/2" hardcoat aluminum NPSH threaded couplings, one male and one female swivel. These lightweight, corrosion-resistant couplings connect to pumps, hydrants, nozzles, and standard firefighting equipment.
This is a UL listed fire hose certified for fire service compliance across Canada and the United States. This nitrile fire hose operates at 300 PSI working pressure with 600 PSI test and 900 PSI burst.

How Through the Weave Fire Hose Is Made
In traditional fire hose, a rubber liner is extruded separately, inserted through a woven jacket, and bonded with steam. The two layers can separate at fold points over time. In this hose, the nitrile/PVC compound is extruded directly through the circularly woven synthetic yarn during manufacturing.
The rubber flows through the gaps in the weave and forms a single solid wall. No separate liner exists to delaminate. No glues or adhesives are needed because the rubber mechanically locks into the weave.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Through the Weave Fire Hose Construction?
In through-the-weave construction, the rubber and the reinforcement become one solid wall instead of two separate layers bonded together. This eliminates liner delamination, the most common cause of fire hose failure. Hose built this way passes bend and kink tests that traditional lined hose fails, and holds up longer in outdoor rack storage.
Nitrile vs EPDM Fire Hose: Which Is Better?
Nitrile/PVC resists oil, fuel, and chemicals that degrade EPDM rubber, and carries a 10-year warranty versus 5 years typical for EPDM. EPDM handles higher sustained temperatures for interior structural firefighting. For attack lines, supply, wildland, and industrial use, nitrile fire hose is the more durable and chemical-resistant option.
What Is NFPA 1961?
NFPA 1961 is the National Fire Protection Association standard for fire hose design, construction, and performance testing. A fire hose that meets NFPA 1961 has passed flow, pressure, burst, and elongation tests under controlled conditions. This hose is certified to the 2020 Edition of NFPA 1961.
How to Connect NPSH Fire Hose Fittings?
NPSH (National Pipe Straight Hose) fittings thread together by hand and tighten with a spanner wrench. The male end threads into the female swivel coupling. NPSH is standard on many North American fire pumps, hydrant adapters, and nozzles. This fire hose ships with NPSH fittings pre-installed.
How Long Does Nitrile PVC Fire Hose Last?
This nitrile pvc fire hose assembly carries a 10-year manufacturer warranty. The solid-wall construction resists UV degradation, ozone cracking, and mildew that shorten the life of lined fire hose stored on outdoor racks and apparatus. Actual service life depends on use frequency, chemical exposure, and storage conditions.
