Used fire hose for boat docks, hull protection, boat trailer replacement bunk covering, trailer guides, chaffing protection, ratchet strap protection, livestock fencing protection, etc. Even dog chew toys... This hose can be used for almost anything. I have the wider width hose on my personal boat dock. We also haul a lot of material and use it between the loaded material and our ratchet strapping. It is great chaffing protection for the strapping and offers great material protection. On the farm I wrap it around my stall post to keep the livestock from tearing it up. I use a variety of sizes pending the post size. This might be a little overkill but it works. It also keeps my girls from getting splinters. My boys use this hose for their race cars to slide their fuel and transmissions line through. We also use this hose at our church for threat protection by sliding the hose over the top door hinges. This prevents the door from being opened in the event of an unwanted threat. Cutting the hose to the length of the hinge works the best for us. Measure the width of the hinge for the most appropriate width of hose. Any questions or concerns, please ask and I will send any information or photos I can to help. Please see the last couple photos for examples. They are photos of a different hose but the same size as this hose. The hose I'm posting for auction is in rolls and was not used for any other purpose but fire department use. This is used fire hose which was decommissioned and removed from service. This hose may be faded and contain nicks and scrapes, markings, stains or writings from the previous fire department owners. This auction is for orange colored hose with a thin black infused rubber interior. This particular hose is 4 1/4" wide lying flat. A sharp razor or utility knife can cut this hose length wise to give you almost 8 1/2" in width if you choose to do so. Interior measurement is approximately 2 1/2" round. I can cut any length up to 70’ long (Unless requested, If ordering more than one section, I will send it in one continuous length if at all possible.) Cutting both sides will give you 20’ x 4 1/4” The first 5 photos are the actual hose for this auction. The remainder of the photos are various examples of what I've used them for. I pay the shipping and use the most cost-effective carrier. Please see photos for your own opinion. Any questions please ask, and I will answer as best as I can. Please see my other hose auctions for addition hose widths, lengths and material construction. Thank You
