FM Approved Fabrics
These fabrics have been tested and rated to the ANSI/FM 4950 Standard which is now required by the NFPA 51B 2009 Standard.The rating system makes it easy to determine which of the three levels of fire protection - welding curtains, welding blankets or welding pads - is needed for a specific hot work operation. The FM Approvals mark is your assurance that the fabrics conform to the highest internationally accepted standard for quality, safety, and performance. - For more information about FM Approvals and the performance categories (blankets, pads and curtains) click here.
