300 PSIG (2100 kPa). A 100% filament polyester, elastomer lined,
single-jacket flat-woven hose; available in 3/4" and 5/8" (19 mm and 16
mm) sizes with yellow ENCAP™ .
Designed for wildland
applications, ECONOFLO™ can also be used for Hazardous Material
operations and personnel decontamination. When used on or around asphalt
or pavement, care must be taken to minimize damage by abrasion or

jacket.
The thickness of the lining shall be 0.012" (305 µm) minimum
and it shall be constructed of extruded T.P.U. elastomer.
If required (optional), the outside jacket shall be treated

the initial hose length, it shall not warp more than 10 inches (25 cm)
and should not rise from the test table.
The hose shall not twist more than 5 turns per 50 ft (15,2 m)
while at 300 PSIG (2100 kPa).
Minimum service test pressure of 150 PSIG (1050 kPa).

Minimum straight burst test pressure of 600 PSIG (4200 kPa).
The hose while curved to a radius of 27" (69 cm) shall not
burst at less than 600 PSIG (4200 kPa).
