camano ridge Report post Posted September 26, 2013 (edited) When you say fire hose fabric do you mean what the outer jacket of actual fire hose is made of, which may be any number of materials natural or synthetic. Fire hose jackets armade of many types of materials kevalar, elastomers etc. Or are you refering to Fire Hose Fabric clothing such as manufactured by Duluth Trading COmpnay. There clothing is made out of Heavy canvas duck which is what fire hose jackets used to be made of. The material they use is heavy canvas I believe 12oz. It can be found from many suppliers. Try a search for heavy cotton canvas. Also try Bigduck Canvas, give them a call and let them know what you want to do they can tell you which of there products would work. As a firefighter I handled fire hose and purchased firehose many times over a thirty year period. Edited September 26, 2013 by camano ridge Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
