Snap-Tite UTX Hose
ENHANCED FLOW AND VISIBILITY ON THE FIREGROUND
LARGE DIAMETER POLYURETHANE SUPPLY HOSE
Snap-Tite UTX™ LDH gives fire departments that extra edge in flow and support - all in a high-visibility, lightweight supply line. A tough polyurethane outer cover combines with an exclusive thru-the-weave polyurethane liner to offer greater resistance to punctures and abrasion. But it doesn’t stop there. UTX™ is compact, taking up less room in the hose bed, and durable - with higher resistance to oils, chemicals, and ozone. Snag proof and kink resistant, UTX™ will not mildew or rot and is guaranteed for life to never delaminate.
Typical rubber extruded fire hose can vary in thickness, becoming bulky and heavy. UTX™ LDH incorporates a circular woven polyester jacket that is completely encapsulated by an extruded thru-the-weave polyurethane cover and liner that provides abrasion and puncture resistance while remaining light and service worthy.
