Fire Hose Packs and Bags
We now offer hose packs specifically designed for deployment
of wildland Travis Packs. These packs are created specifically
for packing and deployment of the Travis Pack (which can be
known by other names across various regions). The Travis Pack
was designed as a streamlined way to deploy hose on a wildland
incident, replacing the old cumbersome Gazner-Barr Packs.
Until now, agencies were using the green GSA packs for these
hose packs. However, there were always issues with these -
specifically the size. The GSA packs were always a little
small, which led not only to tight, sticky deployment of the
packs, but also bloody knuckles when trying to pack the 1"
hose.
Problem solved with AFT's new attack pack and supply pack!
These packs are not only specifically designed for hose pack
deployment, but the cost is comparable to the old GSA packs!
The Attack Pack
Designed to be used for the Travis Pack.
This pack holds 100ft of 1-1/2", 100ft of 1" hose
and a gated wye. This pack has padded, reversible
straps for deployment of any type of progressive
