The Attack Pack is described as which of the following?

• A. 100 feet flat loaded 1.75 inches
• B. 150 feet of 1.75 inches triple or flat loaded
• C. 200 feet of 1.75 inches flat loaded
• D. 100 feet of 2.5 inches flat loaded

Answer: (A)

When you’re aiming for a quick, ready-to-use handline, the Attack Pack is configured for fast deployment and easy handling. The standard description is 100 feet of flat-loaded 1.75-inch hose. This size provides a good balance between enough flow for an initial interior attack and practical weight for rapid maneuvering. The 100-foot length is short enough to pull and advance quickly through doors and corridors, yet long enough to reach many typical fire room distances. Flat loading compresses neatly into a compact pack and allows the hose to come out smoothly in a straight pull, reducing snags and delays compared with other loading methods. Using a longer length or a wider diameter would add weight and slow deployment, while a smaller diameter would limit flow for a sustained attack. Hence, 100 feet of flat-loaded 1.75-inch hose best matches the Attack Pack’s purpose.
