Z-Block™ flame retardant fabrics are high temperature polymer coated fiberglass fabrics treated with a proprietary formulation of fire retardants and finished with a high temperature silicone overcoat (SOC). Z-Block™ high temperature fabrics offer exceptional resistance to fire, smoke, abrasion, UV, and adverse weather. Z-Block™ is formulated with inorganic materials and will not produce hazardous outgassing.
This heat resistant fabric is designed for use in fire and smoke curtains, fire containment covers, and custom smoke and fire protection systems. When exposed to flame in these applications, the coating develops a protective high temperature silica layer that prevents flame penetration at temperatures up to 1800°F / 980°C.
Z-Block™ is also an excellent insulation jacketing material for multi-layer insulation blankets, but it is not intended for hot-side applications where contact temperatures exceed 350°F / 175°C.
