1" x 50' snowmaking hose

Premium Quality Double Jacket Snow Hose 800 PSI Factory Test
JGB's private-branded Avalanche 2000 II snowmaking hose sheds some light on just how a snowmaking hose should be produced. The hose is tough and ready for action, but it is very light in weight. The Avalanche 2000 II has a smooth inner lining which provides the user with maximum flow with minimum friction loss.

The Avalanche 2000 II key features:

  • Factory Proof Pressure Test of 800 PSI (5500 KPa) and a Service Test Pressure of 400 PSI (2750 KPa).
  • Tightly woven virgin spun polyester outer jacket to assure an extra abrasion resistance.
  • A super strong filament polyester inner jacket was needed for greater pressure capabilities and reduced moisture absorption.
  • JGB's Patented Mertex process fills the corrugations of the weave yielding low friction loss.
  • JGB's high visibility green Permatek HP Treatment provides greater abrasion resistance and reduced moisture absorption.
  • The hose is resistant to most chemicals, petrol products, ozone and UV exposure, as well as rot and mildew.
  • JGB can assure the user that the Avalanche 2000 II has excellent cold flexibility to -65°F (-55°C).
Hose Type
Avalanche 2000 II Snowmaking Hose Snowmaking
Application: A snow-making hose with a high-performance construction that gives superior abrasion resistance and longer life, even in the most severe applications.
Construction:
   Tube: Black, fused thermoplastic which produces an extremely smooth waterway which will significantly reduce friction loss when compared to conventional liners.
   Reinforcement: Woven filament polyester.
   Cover: Woven filament polyester.
Temperature: As low as -55°F (-48.3°C)
Packaging: 50', 100' standard lengths.
Branding: Non-branded
Couplings: Internally expanded aluminum male NPT threaded couplings or high-performance, quick disconnect couplings.

All of our hose is made to withstand the extreme conditions of snowmaking.  It is also tough enough to be used for tank fill and irrigation.
