- 14 CFR (FAR) 25.853(c), Oil Burn for Seat Cushions
- FMVSS-302 (Automotive Flammability)
|
This product greatly exceeds automotive flammability standards. |
|
• This product is acceptable for use in all types aircraft and rotorcraft, except for in 0.125". • Can pass the 14 CFR 25.853(c) Oil Burn for Seat Cushion without a fire blocking layer when paired with a suitable dress cover. (Note: A dress cover passing 25.853(a) does not necessarily mean it will perform well during the Oil Burn test). • Use of fireblocking fabric can greatly increase cushion performance during testing. |
 |
This product is acceptable for use in marine interiors, but is not water resistant or repellent. A waterproof barrier would likely be required. |
