C-1 Materials 

The buyer reserves the right to have any or all material supplied 

and tested by a qualified independent source. If the material 

supplied does not meet the specification and no exceptions were 

taken, the supplier (bidder) shall be responsible for the following: 

1-Cost of testing service 

2-Price difference between the bid price and the next lowest 

bidder, along with any other related expenses to purchase the

C-2 It is not the intention of the specification to bar from consideration 

any hose of improved design or quality that will meet or 

exceed the published specifications. 

D Detailed Specifications 

D-1 Outer jacket construction 

The jackets shall be evenly, firmly and well woven with fine count 

virgin ring-spun polyester in the warp ends. The jackets shall be 

free of unsightly defects, dirt, knots, lumps and irregularities of twist 

that might effect the serviceability of the finished product. Open 

end and air entangled yarns will not be acceptable. The filler or 

weft yarns shall be made of high tenacity, low stretch filament 

polyester, and shall be completely covered by the warp ends. 


D-2 Inner jacket construction 

The inner jacket warp and weft yarns shall be 100% high tenacity - 

low stretch filament polyester for greater strength. These yarns 

shall be completely encapsulated by a polyurethane compound. 


E Lining 

E-1 The lining material shall be a polyurethane compound applied 

by a through-the-weave process. The material shall be applied to 

create a very smooth waterway to reduce friction loss. The lining 

materials shall fill the openings of the weave encapsulating each 

and every warp and weft yarn. Linings that are glued or applied by 

a hot melt process are not acceptable. 


E-2 Backing 

Backing or adhesives of any kind shall not be acceptable. 


E-3 The lining shall remain flexible to -60°F (-51°C). 


E-4 The lining shall have a tensile strength of 5000 psi. 


E-5 The adhesion between the lining and the inner jacket shall not 

be less than 25 lbs. (11 kg) 


E-6 When specified for potable water, the polyurethane lining 

material shall be approved by the National Sanitation Foundation 

to meet NSF Standard 61. 


E-7 Ozone resistance 

There shall be no visible signs of liner cracking when tested to 

100 pphm at 122°F (50°C) for 100 hours. 


F Finished Hose 

F-1 Hose must be 50 ft. when measured at 0 psi.

F-4 Pressure test requirements 

Each section of hose shall withstand a hydrostatic pressure test 

(proof) as shown below for a minimum of 15 seconds without 

leakage or breaking of threads in the hose. Other requirements to 

conform with NFPA 1961, latest edition.

3"- 4"-5" 600 psi 900 psi 300 psi 


F-5 The elongation between 10 psi and the proof test pressure 

shall not exceed 5%. There shall be no contraction of hose 

between 10 psi and proof test pressure. 


F-6 The expansion of the hose between 10 psi and the proof test 

pressure shall not exceed 5%. 


F-7 Warp from a straight line between 10 psi and proof test 

pressure shall not exceed 10". The hose shall not rise from the 

test table. (50 ft length) 

Comply Yes _____ No _____

F-8 Twist of the hose (50' length) between 10 psi and the proof 

test pressure shall not exceed 3-1/2 turns for the 1-1/2", 1-3/4", 2" 

and 1-1/2" turns for the 2-1/2", 3", 4" and 5" sizes. No final twist in 

a direction to loosen the couplings (left) shall be permitted. 


G Safety factors 

G-1 Dura-Cote process (option) 

The outer jacket shall be impregnated with a specially developed 

compound. This compound when applied to the hose increases 

the abrasion resistance of the fabric to well over 30,000 cycles on 

an abrasion tester. Dura-Cote contains a special flame retardant, 

which increases the burn resistance from less than one minute to 

over five minutes on a special flame test. Dura-Cote also 

decreases water pick-up by 100%, and adds resistance to 

petrochemicals. Dura-Cote is available in five colors; red, yellow, 

orange, blue and tan. 


G-2 When coated with Dura-Cote, hose shall pass a flame test, as 

depicted below, for a period of five minutes without bursting. 

3" 

FLAME 


5-1/4" 

G-3 When coated with Dura-Cote, hose shall pass a hot cube test 

(British Standard 6391) for a period of two minutes. The procedure 

calls for the test cube to be heated to 1112° F (600 °C). 


G-4 Kink Resistance 

A 50' length of hose shall be pressurized to 50 psi nozzle pressure 

with water flowing. A loop shall be formed in the center of the 

length with the hose side by side and both couplings together. This 

loop must pass through a 34" doorway without kinking or otherwise 

limiting the flow of water to the nozzle. 


G-5 Friction loss per 100' attack hose 2-50' long.

All tests conducted with a 15/16 straight bore nozzle. 


G-6 Ponn Color Coding System (Option) 

Ponn has been the leader in color coded hoses for 20 years. A one 

inch stripe of contrasting color is woven into the outer jacket 

running the full length of the hose for identification purposes. There 

are nine colors available meeting NFPA 1901 recommendations for 

pump panel discharge identification. These colors are: red, yellow, 

blue, green, tan, orange, black, purple and silver. 


G-7 Color coding can be used in conjunction with the Dura-Cote 

process in limited colors only as another option. The stripe color 

must be a darker shade than the Dura-Cote. 


NOTE: Hose is filled with water and pressurized to 75 psi.
