Flame Control Class “B” Fire Retardant Varnish Systems
For details on application, maintenance & precautions, refer to the can labels or product data sheets

 

No. 129 Varnish Base Coat and No. 130 Varnish Overcoat comprise a Class “B” fire retardant system. This system is recommended for use on wood paneling, woodwork, doors, door and window frames, and other surfaces which are subject to scuffing and handling, or may require occasional cleaning. These coatings contain no water soluble ingredients and will not leach or become milky on aging or when exposed to humidity or moisture. They are manufactured with Rule 66 mineral spirits and produce no unusually strong or unpleasant odor during application. No 130 is available in Low, Semi or High Gloss sheen.

This Flame Control Class “B” system will fulfill building and fire code requirements for public assembly areas such as restaurants, hotels, convention facilities, churches, nursing homes, etc.

No. 133 Water Base Fire Retardant Varnish is a water base fire retardant varnish system with a low semi-gloss sheen. It is designed for use on all new or previously coated wood surfaces (except floors). The varnish will not leach or turn white on aging or washing.

No. 133 is recommended for application to all wood surfaces where a reduction of surface flammability is required to comply with building or fire code requirements.

No. 10 Class “B” Clear Fire Retardant Penetrating Wood Treatment was developed to meet requirements for a clear fire retardant treatment for EXTERIOR use on previously untreated cedar shakes and shingles. It is very effective in reducing the flammability of Cedar and other edge grain woods. No. 10 contains no water soluble salts, therefore it’s fire retardant properties are lasting. Properly treated wood will char but will not support combustion.

Fire Test:

(small Scale) A cedar shingle was divided in half. One section was treated with two coats of No. 10 at 300 sq. ft./gal per coat, allowed to dry 72 hours, and then placed at a 450 angle for an incline fire test. A Fisher high temperature gas burner, with flame temperature of 1800F was placed two inches from the panel surface. The flame was removed at 15 and 30 second intervals, and the time for the surface to self extinguish was recorded as follows:

Flame Exposure Time to Self Extinguish Smoke Developed
15 seconds 1 4 seconds
30 seconds 2 continuous burning
60 seconds 3  
90 seconds 6  
120 seconds 15  

Flame Spread Rating:

Class “B” per NFPA 703 Section 2-2.1.3. Applied to No. 1 grade Red Cedar Shingles and tested in accordance with ASTM E 84 Tunnel Test

No. 141 Class “B” Polyurethane Gloss Gym Floor Varnish

Product Description: Flame Control No. 141 is a clear, transparent finish, designed for interior use on gym floors and other wood floor surfaces, where maximum resistance to abrasion, scrubbing and washing is required. No. 141 is also suitable for use on other interior surfaces such as wood paneling, doors, trim, dadoes, wainscoting, stairs and concrete floors.

Fire Tests:

Flame Spread Rating: Class "B". When tested in accordance with ASTM E-84 (ANSI/UL 723, NFPA 255 and UBC 8-1), the coating obtained the following fire hazard classification. A complete report from a U.S. Government approved laboratory is available upon request.
