How to use Flammability Tester Of Building Material

Time: Author: SKYLINE Editor

Flammability Tester of Building Material is a device used to measure how easily certain building materials can burn or ignite. It is used to assess the flammability characteristics of different types of construction materials such as drywall, insulation, plastics and timber. The tester measures the rate at which a material combusts when exposed to an open flame from a gas-oxygen burner.


Flammability tester of building materials is used to measure the resistance of a material to fire. It can be used to evaluate the performance of a material in terms of its ability to withstand a flame or smoke and avoid combustion. The test results enable manufacturers, contractors, engineers and architects to make informed decisions about which materials are most suitable for use in their projects.

It works by applying a flame source to the material being tested and then measuring how long it takes for the material to catch fire. The longer it takes, the more flammable the material is determined to be. The tester also measures other factors such as smoke density, flame spread rate, char length, and fuel contribution index which help determine how flammable an item really is.
