The A-FAST system – The original AFAST 1, the “Attic Stick”
The AFAST-1 system comprises a high-flow valve assembly with all American made components and has a full 1-1/2 inch waterway. The pistol grip handle is aluminum and is removable, it has 1-1/2″ NST threads on both ends. The shut-off bail is high strength steel and a full 1-1/2 inch opening!. The pipe is schedule 40 aluminum (60 inches) and the nozzle tip is machined from billet brass and drilled and machined by hand. Flow tests show between 150 and 230 gallons per minute flow, depending on engine pressure, hose length, and type.
AFAST 1 with PowderCoat finish
NOTE: This is NOT a piercing nozzle. Although it will punch through a normal 1/2-inch to 1-inch DRYWALL layer, it is not meant to be used as a piercing nozzle. Any other material you will have to make an access hole with hand or power tools. This nozzle assembly is designed for maximum water flow for application in a concealed space, therefore the tip is not designed to be forced through hard material. The nozzle assembly is roughly 4.5 feet long and mates to a 1-1/2″ NST fitting.
>> The NEW A-FAST system utilizing ONE set of 2 extension pipes (72 inches total) AND the trademark nozzle tip to assemble the A-FAST 1.

The A-FAST-2, the Roof applicator assembly
The AFAST-2 is constructed of the same high quality American made materials. The AFAST-2 is designed for operating from the exterior roof area, utilizing a fire sprinkler type method to extinguish attic and confined space fires. The firefighters cut a small hole in the roof deck, or utilize an existing vent hole or burn-through area and insert the AFAST-2 down into the hole. Charge the line and let the special designed water applicator do its job.
The blue A-FAST 2 nozzle applicator attaches to the modular A-FAST 10 pipe assembly to form the complete A-FAST 2 system.
The A-FAST 10 base extension is 36 inches long and mates a 1-1/2″ NST female swivel and a 1″ NST male. The nozzle extension assembly is roughly 36 inches long and mates to a male / female 1″ NST fitting.

The A-FAST 3, the Basement & Flat Roof applicator
The A-FAST 3 is the answer for your below grade or basement fires, as well as confined space fires and fires below flat roofs (cocklofts, etc). We received so many calls about the AFAST-2 and how it would work on basement fires if only the angle of the bend were less and the reach longer. Well we listened, and the AFAST-3 was born!

The A-FAST 10 base extension is 36 inches long and mates a 1-1/2″ NST female swivel and a 1″ NST male. The nozzle extension assembly is roughly 36 inches long and mates to a male / female 1″ NST fitting.

The revolutionary A-FAST-4 wall cavity nozzle
Firefighters asked us if we could make a mini-me version of the A-FAST 1 for use in wall cavities, primarily for balloon frame construction. Have no fear… A-FAST 4 is here!! We modified the tip, and instead of brass we machined it from BILLET ALUMINUM! Punch a hole in the lath and plaster, get this nozzle in there and get that fire before it gets to the attic!
The A-FAST-4 wall void nozzle
The A-FAST 4 has a 1-1/2″ NST fitting to attach to our A-FAST valve assemblies (for best flow results) or to your existing valve assemblies. And the beauty of it… it fits in your bunker pants pocket!

AFAST 5 with PowderCoat finish
The AFAST-5 system comprises a high-flow valve assembly with all American made components and has a full 1-1/2 inch waterway. The pipe is schedule 40 aluminum and the nozzle tip is machined from billet brass and drilled and machined using precision CNC machining. Flow tests show between 150 and 230 gallons per minute flow, depending on engine pressure, hose length, and type.
The nozzle assembly is 34 inches in length, and mates to a 1-1/2″ NST male fitting.

The A-FAST-9, for Pressurized Water Cans and Wildland Pump Cans
These nozzles will attach to your existing 2.5 gallon pressurized water can hoses, or thread onto your wildland pump can applicator assembly. The model 9-A comes complete with brass barb assembly for inserting in the applicator hose (clamp not included). We can also supply a new hose with tip installed (contact your dealer). The model 9-B has internal female threads for installing on your hand pump applicator assembly.
We can talk about this all day but this article in Fire Apparatus and Equipment says it all.

The A-FAST-10, the Lithium-Ion car battery cooling pipe assembly with extension
The A-FAST 10 L-Ion battery cooling nozzle is a lightweight easy to assemble nozzle designed for the cooling of Electric Vehicle (EV) batteries. The nozzle does not extinguish the battery fire but cools the battery pack from beneath the vehicle. The benefit of the A-FAST 10 is its ability to flow water at a lower pressure. This allows it to be directly supplied from a fire hydrant to permit the fire apparatus to be available for other purposes.
The nozzle and tip pipe is attached to an aluminum base plate / skid unit for stability. The nozzle tip flows between 50 and 90 gallons per minute.
The assembly consists of the A-FAST 10 base system, about 72 inches long (yellow reflective tape) and ONE 36-inch extension pipe (red reflective tape) for a total of 108 inches total (9 feet). Extension pipes can be added in any number to increase the distance from the personnel operating the system, but they must be slid along the ground to prevent damage to the pipes.
