Manufactured in similar process as TPX, Snap-tite ATX utilizes a 3-ply design
where the cover and liner are extruded independently and double vulcanized to
guarantee a consistent, compact hose wall. The polyester reinforcement can then
be woven tighter, making this hose more resistant to puncture while also being
easier to pack and store. ATX has a stronger jacket which increases the service
test pressure of the LDH sizes to 300 psi (2070 kPa).
ATX is designed to meet and exceed the NFPA pressure requirements for
supply, relay, or attack operations on the fire ground and is suitable for pumping
to sprinklers and standpipes, industrial fire fighting, and supplying aerial
devices. When lower pressure LDH hose can be specified, please refer to our
Snap-tite TPX hose found on pages M-16 and M-17.
Properties and Construction
• ATX is a 3-ply rubber municipal fire hose with both the cover and liner
made of heavy duty nitrile rubber, high tensile strength tightly woven polyester
reinforcement for maximum durability and flexibility.
• Smooth liner keeps friction loss to a minimum.
• Nitrile rubber cover greatly increases abrasion resistance, provides long
service life and the tightly woven reinforcement resists puncture.
• Hose remains flexible to temperatures as low as -5°F (-20°C) and is resistant
to ozone, oxidation, and most chemicals and petrochemicals.
• Suitable for high pressure attack, supply, and relay applications.
• Snap-tite ATX is manufactured in accordance with NFPA 1961 standard, latest
edition within our ISO-9001: 2000 certified quality assurance system.
