BullDog™ Hi-Power™ Firefighting Hose
Offering exceptional strength and flexibility, the BullDog™ Hi-Power™ Firefighting Hose delivers high abrasion resistance and reliable water flow, making it ideal for demanding fire suppression and emergency response operations.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
High-rise firefighting has unique tactical and equipment requirements. While weight is important, functionality and ease of use are far more important. Reliable hose performance is crucial in high-rise environments, and Hi-Power™ delivers. Engineered by BullDog, Hi-Power is an ultra-lightweight, maneuverable, nitrile-rubber hose designed specifically for fighting fires in high-rise buildings. The lightweight, through-the-weave construction is heat and puncture resistant, and kink resistant with low friction loss. The rubber cover prevents water from penetrating the reinforcement thus minimizing the weight of the hose when in service. The standard color for Hi-Power hose is blue.
