FRESH & FLOWING

In the fire service, trust isn’t given — it’s earned. For nearly 50 years, Mercedes Textiles has built hose that firefighters can count on. What sets us apart isn’t gimmicks or shortcuts. It’s a commitment to values that don’t change...
What're You Pulling?


The most advanced double-jacketed 2” (51mm) attack hose capable of delivering targeted flows of 210-300 GPM with up to 30% less weight compared to standard 2.5" lines.


Designed for aggressive fire fighting applications where durability coupled with lightweight, excellent low pressure kink resistance and superior water flow are critical factors.


Large diameter hose (LDH) designed for fastest deployment, easiest recovery and the best packability in the industry, enhanced with our patented Breather Technology™
