Versatile & tough extruded rubber hose
Fortex is an extruded rubber hose for professional firefighting applications. It is made by weaving high-tenacity yarns and covering the textile reinforcement with a synthetic rubber compound. This process creates a high-pressure fire hose that is abrasion and chemical resistant.
Fortex is a Type 3 fire hose. The robust protective cover can withstand heavy brigade use of being dragged across rough ground. It is also Class H, the highest-pressure rating for fire hose. This extruded rubber fire hose is maintenance-free, requiring only a wipe down after use, thus eliminating the need for drying.
We offer a wide range of couplings, which we securely fit to the hose and provide a test certificate if required. This hose has the British Standard BS6391 approval.
Fortex is available in two diameters: 38mm and 64mm. This hose is usually supplied in 30m lengths.
Like all our fire hose, Fortex comes with a 12-month warranty against manufacturing faults.
