Finding a solution that enabled teams to retain the lightweight substrates whilst still achieving an ignition and flame spread barrier for the drivers.
Temprotex F1ER was utilised as a high performance water-based, fast-drying, team sprayable coating solution for use on car bodies, plastic/composite panels and flexible lines and hoses. This coating is heat insulating, vibration resistant, ductile, waterproof, non-flammable. It extends fire retardancy of thermosets and other flammable, ductile items as well as reducing core temperatures.
Set the new standard for ignition barrier technology in the industry. Also effective fire/smoke protection on roll cage foam, padding, blankets, hoses, grommets and poly or silicone-based flammable components
Temprotex keeps NHRA funny car drivers safe from fire, heat and smoke.
IMPORTANT: Confirm with your certifying body prior to application that the F1ER system is suitable to meet the fire rating requirements on your project.
Temprotex® F1ER is a high-performance, water-based coating that dries quickly and can be sprayed on various surfaces, including car and truck bodies, plastic and composite panels, engine components, flexible lines and hoses, HDEP, GRP, fiberglass, carbon fiber, and nearly any other composite material. This coating is designed to be heat insulating, vibration resistant, ductile, waterproof, and nonflammable. It effectively creates an ignition barrier on thermosets and other flammable materials while also lowering core temperatures.
