Description:
Elkhart Brass 1.5″ x 2.5″ 111A2 Hose Increaser
The Elkhart Brass 111A2 Increaser is designed to connect hose lines with different coupling sizes during firefighting operations. This fitting allows firefighters to transition from a 1.5″ hose connection to a 2.5″ line, helping integrate smaller attack lines with larger hose sections, appliances, or nozzles.
Hose Size Transition
Hose increasers are commonly used when a smaller hose line must connect to larger hose appliances or supply connections. This allows crews to adapt hose layouts during extended operations, water supply changes, or training evolutions.
Extended Clearance Design
The 111A2 increaser provides additional space between the hose and nozzle, helping improve clearance and hose handling when connecting attack lines to larger nozzles or appliances.
Low-Profile Knurled Grip
Low-profile knurling on the coupling improves grip during hose connections and disconnections, especially when firefighters are wearing gloves.
Durable Aluminum Construction
The increaser body is constructed from lightweight aluminum designed to provide durability while helping reduce the overall weight of hose fittings carried on apparatus or in hose kits.
Hose Connections
• 1.5″ female inlet
• 2.5″ male outlet
These couplings allow firefighters to connect smaller attack lines to larger hose sections or firefighting appliances.
Dimensions
• Height: 2.688″
Typical Applications
Hose increasers are commonly used during hose deployments, standpipe operations, pump training, and extended hose evolutions where firefighters need to connect hose lines of different diameters.
