Frequently Asked Questions
Answer: **Type I Fire Hose (Single Rubber Lined)**: Features one layer of rubber lining inside circular woven synthetic jacket. Working pressure 10-12 kg/cm². Lighter weight (425g/m for 63mm), more flexible, easier to handle, suitable for indoor installations, commercial buildings, residential complexes, and light industrial applications. Cost-effective for standard firefighting requirements. **Type II Fire Hose (Double Rubber Lined)**: Two layers of rubber lining providing enhanced strength and durability. Working pressure 15-17 kg/cm². Heavier construction (550-600g/m for 63mm), more rigid, designed for heavy-duty industrial applications, refineries, petrochemical plants, and outdoor harsh environments. Better abrasion resistance and longer service life in demanding conditions. For UAE, Saudi, and GCC markets: Type I recommended for building fire protection systems; Type II for industrial facilities and oil & gas installations.
Answer: Diameter selection depends on flow requirements and pressure: **38mm (1.5")**: Small commercial buildings, residential apartments, light flow applications up to 200 LPM, typical for Class A fires in confined spaces. **50mm (2")**: Medium commercial facilities, warehouses, manufacturing units, flow 300-400 LPM, balanced between portability and capacity. **63mm (2.5")**: Most common diameter for industrial and commercial applications, flow 600-800 LPM at 7 kg/cm² pressure, optimal balance of weight and performance, standard for fire cabinets and hose reels. **70mm (2.75")**: Large industrial facilities, refineries, tank farms requiring high flow rates 900+ LPM, heavier but maximum discharge capacity. IS 636 and international fire codes typically specify 63mm as standard for most building fire protection systems. For GCC markets, 63mm is mandatory per Civil Defense requirements for commercial and industrial buildings.
Answer: Comprehensive documentation package includes: **IS 636 Compliance Certificate** with batch number and manufacturing date; **Pressure Test Reports** covering burst (520 PSI), proof (320 PSI), kink (320 PSI), and working pressure (260 PSI) validation with actual test data; **Dimensional Inspection Report** verifying inside diameter, mass per meter, and length accuracy; **Material Certificates** for synthetic yarn jacket and rubber lining with composition details; **ISO 9001:2015 Certification** demonstrating quality management compliance; **Coupling Test Reports** for instantaneous coupling integrity and pressure rating. For export orders, we provide **ISI Mark certification** (where applicable), **BS 6391 equivalence documentation** for UK projects, **UL/FM certification coordination** for USA markets through accredited labs, **Lloyd's Register approval** for marine/offshore applications, and **MMD (Marine & Mercantile) approval** for ship installations. NABL lab testing available per IS 636, NFPA 1961, BS 6391, or project-specific international standards with third-party witness inspection from SGS, Bureau Veritas, or client-nominated agencies.
Answer: **Shelf Life**: Minimum 5 years from manufacturing date when stored properly; operational life 15-20 years with proper maintenance and annual testing. **Storage Requirements**: Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat sources (ideal temperature 5-30°C). Keep away from chemicals, oils, petroleum products, and corrosive substances that damage rubber lining. Store hoses loosely coiled or laid flat—avoid tight rolling or sharp bends causing permanent creases. Keep off concrete floors using wooden pallets or racks preventing moisture absorption. Rotate stock using FIFO (First In First Out) method. **Maintenance**: Flush with clean water after each use, dry completely before storage preventing mildew growth. Inspect quarterly for cracks, abrasions, coupling damage, or rubber deterioration. Conduct annual hydrostatic testing at proof pressure (22 BAR) per IS 636 requirements. Replace immediately if burst during testing or shows significant wear. For Middle East climate (UAE, Saudi): Store in air-conditioned warehouses; UV exposure accelerates jacket degradation in 40-50°C ambient temperatures. Provide sun protection covers for outdoor hose cabinets and inspect monthly during summer months.

What is a Fire Hose Pipe Type I?
A Fire Hose Pipe Type I is a single rubber lined, non-percolating flexible conduit designed for conveying water and fire suppressant agents from fire protection systems (hydrants, pumps, water tanks) to the point of fire application during emergency firefighting operations. Manufactured in accordance with IS 636 (Indian Standard) specifications, Type I hoses represent the standard-duty classification suitable for commercial buildings, residential complexes, light industrial facilities, and indoor fire protection networks. The "single rubber lined" designation indicates one continuous rubber layer bonded to the interior of the circular woven jacket, creating a seamless barrier preventing water seepage (percolation) while maintaining flexibility required for rapid deployment and maneuvering around obstacles during emergency response.
Construction comprises three primary components: **Outer Jacket**: Circular woven textile made from high-tenacity synthetic yarns (polyester, nylon blend) providing mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, and tear resistance. The circular weaving pattern (versus flat weaving) ensures uniform stress distribution across circumference when pressurized, preventing localized failures. White color standard provides high visibility during nighttime operations and smoke-filled environments. **Inner Lining**: Seamless extruded rubber tube (natural rubber compound or synthetic EPDM) vulcanized to jacket interior, creating permanent bond resistant to delamination. The non-percolating property ensures zero water absorption into jacket fibers, maintaining consistent weight and flexibility throughout service life. **End Fittings**: Precision-machined instantaneous couplings (male/female configuration) manufactured from aluminum alloy or gunmetal, mechanically crimped or swaged onto hose ends with high clamping force preventing blow-off under pressure. Quick-connect mechanism features lever-operated locking lugs enabling tool-free connection/disconnection achievable by single operator in under 5 seconds—critical during emergency response when every second matters.
