Fight fires in areas around your facility that city-installed hydrants don’t reach. These hydrants are dry-barrel, the most common type of hydrant, which means they drain water when not in use. Not only does this prevent freezing, but it keeps water from spurting out if a vehicle hits these hydrants. And if they get hit, they won’t need much repair—their safety flange and safety stem coupling break without shattering. That means the hydrant comes off cleanly, minimizing damage to the main body and stem. To repair, just replace the flange and coupling using the repair kit (sold separately).

These hydrants must be installed and maintained according to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standards. If your main line is below 5 ft., attach a stem extension (sold separately). An extension can also raise your hydrant above the ground.

These hydrants are FM approved and meet AWWA C-502 standards for the durability, reliability, and safety of dry-barrel fire hydrants. Connect them to the plain end of a water main line with their mechanical joint connection. The fitting will maintain a tight seal through normal underground movement and temperature changes.
