Flexible Sprinkler Hoses
Flexible sprinkler hoses are stainless steel braided hose assemblies designed for fire sprinkler systems. They enable fast, safe, and flexible connections between sprinklers and branch lines, absorbing seismic movement and reducing installation time in suspended and gypsum board ceiling systems.
Overview
Flexible sprinkler hoses are used to connect fire sprinklers to branch pipelines in fire protection systems. Their flexible stainless steel construction simplifies installation, allows precise sprinkler positioning, and absorbs vibration and seismic movement.
