Percolating layflat hose for extreme fires
Sabre is a percolating hose that seeps water through the textile reinforcement. By mechanically pinpricking the hose over its length, a thin water layer forms over the hose, offering extra protection against burning coals. Sabre is a Class H fire hose with a high working pressure of 2100 kPa.
This fire hose is woven from filament polyester with state-of-the-art Loomex™ technology. Sabre has a fused thermoplastic polyurethane lining, creating an inseparable bond with the textile reinforcement. Sabre is manufactured with various percolation rates:
- LP – Low Percolation (Standard)
- MP – Medium Percolation
- HP – High Percolation
Sabre™ is fully synthetic, making the fabric imperishable from moisture, unlike the original canvas percolating fire hose. It does not require drying after use, although drying does prevent surface mould stains.
Sabre is available in diameters of 25mm to 64mm. Usually this hose is supplied in 30m lengths but longer lengths can be made up to 200m.
Like all our fire hose, Sabre comes with a 12-month warranty against manufacturing faults. Fully synthetic so no drying is required after use.
