Twin City Hose, Inc. is pleased to announce the Fire SafeFlex™, the newest addition to the extensive line of products currently offered by Twin City Hose. Fire SafeFlex™ are UL® Listed, V and U seismic expansion joint assemblies that have been rated for use in fire suppression systems. These UL® Listed assemblies are in accordance with NFPA 13 and UL 213 safety standard for fire suppression systems. The flexibility of Fire SafeFlex™ V and U expansion joint assemblies helps safeguard fire suppression pipe systems from various threats including unpredictable thermal and seismic movement and high-pressure.

UL® evaluates fire suppression hose and fittings to determine their suitability for use in water-based sprinkler systems. Pipe, hose, and fitting assemblies are subjected to performance tests such as leakage, corrosion, freezing, and hydrostatic pressure tests. Twin City Hose’s UL® Listed Fire SafeFlex™ assemblies are fabricated by factory trained and ASME certified welders using carbon steel and/or stainless steel materials. Every assembly manufactured by Twin City Hose is tested in factory, so you can install with confidence.

“Twin City Hose is committed to manufacturing superior and reliable fire safe flexible piping system assemblies. We understand the safety concerns and need for third party tested and verified hose assemblies, we work closely with Underwriters Laboratories to ensure that we are in complete compliance in our commitment to fabricate safe and reliable fire suppression system assemblies.” says Michael Lowe, President of Twin City Hose.
