The Flex-Lite Hard Suction Fire Hose Storz – 10' Sections is a lightweight, highly durable suction hose designed for drafting and water supply operations. Manufactured in the USA, the Flex-Lite series is approximately 15% more flexible than previous designs while incorporating a new helical construction that provides increased ruggedness and durability in demanding fire service environments.
Built to meet and exceed NFPA 1961 standards, this suction hose features all-aluminum couplings with machined aluminum collars and no plastic components. Couplings are anodized to Military Specification Type III for superior corrosion resistance and long service life. The extended coupling shank design provides additional support at hose ends, while beveled all-metal collars make loading and unloading easier in hose beds and storage compartments.
