ENGINE 13 HOSES
The hose used by TFD is manufactured by Angus and is made of synthetic
materials. It is constructed using a "through weave extrusion process", in which
three layers of polyester or nylon fibers are woven together and totally encased
in nitrile rubber/polyvinyl chloride coating. this process creates a single
thickness layer that eliminate the possibility of delamination.
Synthetic hose is resistant to chemical exposure. Substances such as
hydrocarbons, oils and greases have no adverse effects on it. It is also able to
withstand temperatures as low as -35 degrees F.
The couplings are constructed of either aluminum alloy or pyrolite. Each
female coupling has a neoprene gasket which forms a watertight seal when the
couplings are tightened.
