DuPont FE-36 ™ ™
THE PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE TO HALON IN
MOTORSPORTS
Finish First with DuPont Fire Extinguishants
DuPont™ FE-36™ is becoming the standard in-kind replacement for Halon 1211 in driver compartments for
motorsports, in portable fire extinguishers, and for Halon 1301 in engine compartments. FE-36™ has compa-
rable performance and efficiency to Halon 1211, while offering lower toxicity, as well as zero ozone depletion
potential. When using FE-36™ clean agent, such as may be used for fire protection in a racing environment,
FE-36™ is discharged as a stream of gas and liquid droplets that penetrate into the fire area. This action
quickly stops the combustion process through heat absorption and a chemical interaction.
FE-36™ is the most widely used zero ozone depleting replacement for Halon 1211 in driver compartments for
motorsports, in portable fire extinguishers and for Halon 1301 in engine compartments. DuPont™ FE-36™ is
approved for use on Class A, B and C fires. (Compared to Halon 1211, FE-36™ has lower toxicity and is excep-
tional for use in relatively small enclosures.)
DuPont™ FE-36™ is available worldwide for fire protection of garage, car carrier and pit equipment for use in
motorsports activities.
Leading edge fire protection technology that offers you the
best chance of keeping on track!
