Aluminum rigid fire hose and hydrant adapters provide excellent corrosion resistance and good pressure capacity to withstand water flow when the hydrant is in use. They are more lightweight than brass rigid fire hose and hydrant adapters. These fittings will not rotate as a hose is moved, making them less likely to loosen or break than swivel adapters.,Fire hose and hydrant adapters are fittings that securely connect fire hoses to nozzles, hydrants, fire trucks, and other water sources. They are commonly used to help firefighters be prepared and save time in emergency-response and firefighting applications. They are also used with permanent hose installations, such as maintenance applications in industrial plants and municipal garages.
