Upon recognizing a market need for a fitting manufacturer to be responsive to the unique requirements of the equipment builders for large scale industrial firefighting equipment, U.S. Coupling has stepped into the role. Designing, manufacturing, and supplying lay-flat hose fittings and accessories for this specialist niche market with connections up to 12” in diameter.
U.S. Coupling manufactures Storz suction hose couplings from 4” to 12”, and NH Threaded suction hose couplings from 2.5” to 8”. This U.S. Coupling Storz coupling is for ridged PVC suction hose.
Ideal for use in quick deployment of hose without rolling or twisting, the Storz x Rocker Lug Swivel Female Thread is hard anodized and powder coated for corrosion resistance and protection. A swivel fitting is a hose connection that prevents kinks by swiveling or turning the hose without affecting the connection of the hose to the water source. This stops the hose from kinking when in use and helps to unkink it when you first walk out the hose. The Storz x Rocker Lug Swivel features raised ridges to allow for better grip when connecting or disconnecting couplings.
Made from custom manufactured, aircraft grade 6061-T6 seamless, aluminum extrusions, this fitting uses an National Hose Thread (NH) thread type. The female thread diameter ranges from 2.5” to 8” and the Storz diameter ranges from 4” to 12”.
As a connector for large diameter hose the Storz x Rigid Female Thread Adapter is ideal for use in directly connecting LDH supply lines to attack lines, particularly when stepping down in diameter size. The female NH thread on the adapter quickly connects and disconnects from the male NH thread on the lay-flat hose.
Storz heads provide maximum strength, while the rigid female threaded adapter provides little to no movement or separation. Machined from forged 6061 -T6 aluminum and hardcoat anodized to military specifications, this firefighting adapter uses either National Hose Thread (NH) or National Pipe Thread (NPT) threads. The Rigid Female Thread diameter ranges from 2.5” to 12” and the Storz diameter ranges from 4” to 12”.
