FireLite® NT Offers Fire and Impact Safety
Snoqualmie, Wash. — FireLite® NT, a revolutionary fire-rated glazing material with 3M® Scotchshield® Ultra Film applied to the surface, is an impact safety-rated version of the industry standard, wireless, fire-rated glass ceramic FireLite. The product is available nationwide from Technical Glass Products (TGP). www.fireglass.com
FireLite NT, like FireLite Plus, meets the impact requirements of ANSI Z97.1, as well as CPSC 16CFR1201 Category II. It is listed with Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.®, carrying fire ratings from 20 minutes to three hours. FireLite NT provides a lower cost alternative to FireLite Plus for those locations needing fire and impact safety in one glazing product.
FireLite NT is available in three surface finishes: Premium (polished), Standard (sheet glass quality) and Obscure (patterned). FireLite NT fits in standard fire-rated frames and is available as tested and listed in sizes up to 3,325 square inches (approximately 23 square feet) of exposed glazing. In addition, the surface film is abrasion resistant.
