What is Fire Extinguishing Tape?Definition, Types and Application
Blog Article
Fire Extinguishing Tape is an indication tape that the device has been checked and is in proper working condition. The tape also helps to prevent accidental discharge of the extinguisher and to keep it secure.
The use of red tape on fire extinguishers is a common safety practice in many facilities, such as schools, offices, and public buildings. The tape is usually placed over the fire extinguisher’s nozzle, handle, or pressure gauge, indicating that it has been recently inspected and is ready for use in case of an emergency. The tape is usually removed and replaced during routine fire safety inspections to ensure that the extinguisher is functioning correctly. Additionally, the tape can also help prevent vandalism or accidental discharge, as it is clear when the tape has been tampered with or removed. The use of red tape on fire extinguishers is not a legally required practice, but it is a widely accepted and effective way to enhance fire safety.
Fire Extinguishing Tape function as a fire barrier to meet more demanding fire propagation and fire survival requirements in public and enclosed or underground places. They are also ideal for emergency situations, as no harmful substances have been used in their manufacture or are emitted into the environment.

Product Benefits of Flame Retardant Tape and Fire Resistant Tape
Flame retardant tape and fire resistant tape combine strength with durability in applications and markets that require an added layer of fire protection. Some of the features and benefits of using fire resistant tape are:
• Some products are free of halogenated materials and antimony oxide
• Lightweight, thin bond tapes for composite floor to carpet / mat coverings
• Residue free on removal from composite floor
• Often provide a highly visible product to allow easy recognition of an approved product in controlled environments
• The perfect option for fixing to other fire retardant materials in specified or high safety critical environments
• Some cable wrapping tapes are halogen free to UL 2885 standard
• Acts as a barrier between the flame and the combustible core/insulation within a cable construction
