A general purpose forestry utility
layflat hose, ECONOFOREST™ has a 100% filament polyester single jacket construction with TPU elastomer lining. This 3/4" (19 mm) hose is
available with yellow ENCAP™ or untreated, coupled with Brass GHT and
can be used for tasks such as filling pump cans, supplying sprinklers,
mop-up etc. It has a service test pressure rating of 250 PSIG (1750
kPa), and can handle most common hose pressures, which could allow you
to expand the possible ECONOFOREST™ applications.

specifications
The hose shall be of single jacket construction with 100% virgin
filament polyester.
There shall be a minimum of 10.0 filler yarns per inch in the
jacket.
The thickness of the lining shall be 0.015" (381 µm) minimum
and it shall be constructed of extruded T.P.U. elastomer.
If required (optional), the outside jacket shall be treated
with yellow ENCAP elastomer, which shall completely encapsulate the
jacket fibers and not merely surface coat the jacket.

(-51°C to 60°C).
FM abrasion test of 1,000 cycles minimum.
At 500 PSIG (3500 kPa), its elongation shall not exceed 8% of
the initial hose length, it shall not warp more than 20 inches (51 cm)
and should not rise from the test table.
The hose shall not twist more than 10 turns per 100 ft (30,5 m)
while at 500 PSIG (3500 kPa).
Minimum service test pressure of 250 PSIG (1750 kPa).

Minimum straight burst test pressure of 750 PSIG (5200 kPa).
The hose while curved to a radius of 27" (69 cm) shall not
burst at less than 750 PSIG (5200 kPa).
Meets or exceeds UL-19 and NFPA 1961 specifications.
