The OEL FRB2020 Fire Blanket is a compact safety tool designed for quick containment of fires in electrical and other vehicle-related scenarios. Its 20' x 20' dimensions provide a broad yet manageable coverage area, making it suitable for use in passenger vehicles including internal combustion and electric models. The blanket is engineered for rapid deployment, aided by reinforced molded handles located at each corner to help two people deploy it in under 90 seconds, aiming to limit fire spread and reduce exposure to smoke and heat during an incident.
Construction details emphasize performance-focused materials, with standardized testing references such as FTMS191A/M5136 for tear strength and FTMS 191A/M5903 for flame resistance. The burn and exposure characteristics are documented in the product data, including flame-out in 1 second and an afterglow of 3.0 seconds, along with a 0-inch char length, which collectively indicate rapid extinguishment behavior under testing conditions. The blanket is filled to a minimum average of 25 lbs and has a minimum average warp of 35 lbs, reflecting its thickness and resistance profile. Packaging is practical for storage or mounting in work vehicles, as it is issued in a durable, reusable nylon industrial bag for easy transport and access.
Usage considerations include its applicability to containing smoke and toxic byproducts produced during combustion, and its intended deployment by two people within close reach of the incident scene. While the data provide specific performance metrics, buyers should verify compatibility with their vehicle openings and mounting options. The product is cataloged under the OEL brand with the manufacturer part number FRB2020 and is offered in a ready-to-store package, labeled as “Each,” suitable for individual use or as part of a vehicle safety kit.
