ABSTRACT:
The subject invention is a direction indicating clamp for attachment to fire fighting hoses which indicate direction to exit the building. The invention consists of an elongated band fully or partially encircling the fire fighting hose with attached directional fingers protruding perpendicularly from the band. The clamp is placed upon the hose at prescribed distances thereby allowing the fire fighter to continue feeling along the hose and eventually to exit the building. Various embodiments of the invention encase the flexible clamp with soft rubber or a cloth material. In addition, the directional fingers may have a pointed end or may have raised letters indicating the exiting direction.
