Fire Hose Coupling Demonstrated by Brock Device
Belton and Atlanta fire officials witnessed an instant coupling method by Brock that delivers 500 to 900 gallons of water quickly to control flames. The system, tested by E K R Brock from Belton, showed connections can be made in 14 to 16 seconds, promising major time savings for firefighting operations. Officials across Georgia showed interest, with visits noting strong endorsements from city departments in Birmingham and elsewhere.
