Hi-Combat Safety

Firefighters are often reliant on interior attack hoses to provide necessary flows to put water on the fire. In a smoky building, the attack hose can serve as a tether to the exit for those who get disoriented. The dependability of attack hoses can make a big difference in the success and safety of the crew. Hi-Combat features the ultimate in firefighting hose technology and safety for aggressive interior combat operations.

The unique design of Hi-Combat hose allows ultimate flexibility when traversing through a structure while remaining rigid to avoid kinking, even at lower operating pressures. This makes it the ideal hose for going through doorways, around furniture, or up a stairwell when attacking the interior. Firefighters can save time by taking the fastest and safest route through the building without worrying about the hose kinking.

Outer Jacket

Hi-Combat’s special outer jacket weave featuring a high-tech nylon-polyester encases the inner liner made from a one-piece, extruded through the weave nitrile rubber hose. This combination reduces the amount of drag friction while advancing the hose. It also minimizes water absorption into the outer jacket, reducing the overall weight of the hose during extended use. Hi-Combat attack hose can easily slide across the ground and around corners without getting caught up or damaged.

Interior combat hose can also be the path back to the exit in low visibility. Hi-Combat also features EXIT arrows woven into the jacket of the hose. The incorporated markings will not fade or get scuffed off, giving another layer of safety to the combat firefighters. The high-visibility material is clear to see in every environment, particularly against the five bright NFPA colors available for Hi-Combat hose.

Exclusively from BullDog Hose Company, Hi-Combat hose provides reliable performance that firefighters can rely on. For more information on Hi-Combat attack hose, check out a video of our attack hose in action or call our sales team.
