Armour Guard®
BullDog Armour Guard® is a lay-flat, flexible water-discharge hose that brings impressive flow to any oil field. It combines the lightweight, compact features of a unique nitrile/PVC blend with enhanced durability and abrasion resistance as compared to a conventional rubber hose. Armour Guard features a heavy-duty, one-piece design with all-synthetic, extruded-through-the-weave materials. This allows the hose to expand under pressure, decreasing friction loss and increases water flow. The ozone-resistant synthetic rubber liner and cover totally encase and protect the high-performance inner nylon reinforcement from the effects of abrasion, chemicals, and heat. Armour Guard™ cleans easily and offers ease of maintenance. The standard color is black.
