Safety is essential across Australia’s public transport, mining, and emergency response sectors, where protecting lives and assets is a constant top priority.
Temprotex F1ER is a high-performance, water-based, fast-drying sprayable coating designed for use on a wide range of surfaces, including vehicle bodies, plastic/composite panels, hoselines, and engine parts. This innovative product offers a unique combination of features that make it ideal for heavy-duty vehicles:
What sets Temprotex F1ER apart is its ability to create an effective ignition barrier on various materials while simultaneously reducing core temperatures. This dual-action protection is crucial in preventing fire outbreaks and mitigating their spread in high-risk environments.
In the mining industry, where vehicles operate in extreme conditions, Temprotex F1ER offers a revolutionary solution for protecting combustible surfaces. Its application as an ignition barrier significantly reduces the risk of fires starting in engine bays and other critical areas. This enhanced protection not only safeguards valuable equipment but also ensures the safety of mining personnel working in potentially hazardous environments.
For buses and other public transport vehicles, Temprotex F1ER provides a critical layer of safety. Its application in engine bays and on combustible components effectively stops fires from starting and spreading. This is particularly important in urban environments where rapid evacuation may be challenging and the consequences of a vehicle fire could be catastrophic.
Bushfire response vehicles face some of the most extreme fire risks imaginable. Temprotex F1ER’s ability to protect combustible surfaces is invaluable in these scenarios. By creating a robust ignition barrier, it helps ensure that these critical vehicles can operate safely in high-temperature environments, allowing firefighters to focus on their life-saving work without worrying about their own vehicle’s vulnerability to fire.
One of Temprotex F1ER’s standout features is its exceptional performance in suppressing liquid oil fires. This capability is crucial across all these vehicle types, where oil fires pose a significant threat. The coating’s fire extinguishing properties make it an invaluable asset in containing and suppressing these dangerous flare-ups.
As electric vehicles become more prevalent in mining and public transportation fleets, the risk of battery fires presents a new challenge. Temprotex F1ER offers a solution by helping to reduce the spread of battery fires in EVs. Its intumescent properties and heat-insulating capabilities provide critical time for evacuation and fire response in the event of a battery thermal runaway.
Temprotex F1ER’s effectiveness is not just theoretical. Its performance has been validated through extensive testing and real-world applications. The coating complies with various fire performance standards, including SFI 54.1 for fire extinguishing coatings and ABYC 33.20.6 / Fuel Tank Fire Test – ISO 21487.
In the face of ever-present fire risks in heavy-duty vehicles, and growing concern with EV fires, EXFIRE’s Temprotex F1ER stands out as a versatile and highly effective solution. From mining operations to public buses and bushfire response vehicles, this innovative coating is setting new standards in fire safety. Its ability to prevent ignition, suppress liquid fires, and mitigate battery fire risks makes it an indispensable tool in protecting both valuable assets and, more importantly, human lives.
As industries continue to prioritise safety and seek cutting-edge protective measures, Temprotex F1ER is poised to play an increasingly crucial role in safeguarding vehicles operating in the most demanding and high-risk environments.
