Overview
18 in. (45.7 cm) Polished Chrome Tube for 4 in. (10.2 cm) Freestanding FDCs is a durable steel tube that connects to an angled exposed FDC with a 4 in. (10.2 cm) outlet for use as an exposed sidewalk fire department connection. This seamless polished chrome tube has an inside diameter of 4 5/8 in. (117 mm) and is 18 in. (45.7 cm) long.
