Fire Hoses

Mercedes Textiles Attack Hose

Santiam offers synthetic hose from Mercedes Textiles. Customers love the light weight and suppleness of most Mercedes Textiles products. This helps Mercedes’ hose load nicer on the hose bed, and be easier to handle.

Specific Mercedes Textiles advantages include the patented Mertex® lining method, where hot, molten polyurethane is directly injected into the inner jacket as the jacket is woven. Since Mercedes’ hose with Mertex® are not laminated like other hose, it is virtually impossible for them to delaminate. Mertex® lining is also smoother than other polyurethane lined hoses, resulting in one of the lowest friction loss products on the market.

“We did some awesome training last night and we used our crosslays a lot. On one of the crosslays we had your hose and the other we had some (other brand) hose from (another supplier). After pulling them off and putting them back on the engine and making entry around corners and doing fire attack over 10 times, your hose is hands down the best we have ever used and my guys were rather impressed! I think I told you that before but after last night I couldn't be happier!”

HighWater Hose

Santiam offers rubber hose from HighWater Hose. Some people prefer rubber fire hose because it is easier to clean than synthetic fire hose.

HighWater Hose has a new process to make their hose walls perfectly cocentric (exact same thickness throughout the circumference of the hose). Advantage? This helps HighWater Hose brand products to be lighter and load nicer than other rubber fire hoses.
