Why Choose Snap-tite?
Snap-tite’s Corporate Office and one of six manufacturing facilities centrally located near Erie, Pennsylvania, USA.
“A world class tradition of quality since 1935” is more than just a slogan at Snap-tite:
it’s a defining philosophy. Since its inception, Snap-tite has grown into an international
company recognized as a leader and innovator in many fields.
During the late 1960’s Snap-tite entered the municipal hose market and is credited
with bringing the concept of large diameter hose to wide spread use throughout North
America. Today, virtually every fire department uses large diameter hose to move water
efficiently. During the late 80’s and early 90’s, Snap-tite acquired the Ponn Fire Hose and
National Fire Hose companies to complete an expansion plan that now makes Snap-tite
one of the largest global fire hose manufacturers.
Snap-tite is a third-generation privately owned and operated company, and has grown to
become a world leader in the manufacture of layflat hose for all types of municipal, forest,
and industrial firefighting as well as industrial hose for agriculture, irrigation, construction,
military, mining, and petrochemical applications. Meeting the requirements of the markets
that we do business in, certifying all of our facilities to ISO 9001: 2000 quality standards,
and listening to our highly trained regional stocking distributors has made Snap-tite Hose
the best choice in the world.
You can’t choose the right fire hose if you don’t have a choice…
