Protect Your Interests with E-84 Class A or B Flame Rated Polymer Sheets from King Plastic Corporation
Available in King ColorBoard®
The ASTM E84
This test method is intended to compare the surface flame spread and smoke developed measurements to those obtained from the tests of mineral fiber cement board and select grade red oak flooring. The results are expressed as Flame Spread Index and Smoke Developed Index.
Results
Class A Interior Finish:
Flame Spread Index 0-25, Smoke Developed Index 0-450. Includes any material classified at 25 or less on the flame spread test scale and 450 or less on the smoke developed test scale. Any element thereof when so tested shall not continue to propagate fire.
Class B Interior Finish:
Flame Spread Index 26-75, Smoke Developed Index 0-450. Includes any material classified at 25 but not more than 76 on the flame spread test scale and 450 or less on the smoke developed test scale.
*Note: Color accuracy can vary considerably on computer monitors and printers. Please consult your distributor for a product sample before making critical color choices. Specialty colors by special order only.
