More Information
AMS3195
- AMS3195 is an aerospace material specification is from SAE International Group.
- The specification covers silicone rubber sponge in the form of sheet, strip, extrusions, and molded shapes.
- Our medium density silicone sponge sheet is in accordance with the physical property requirements of AMS3195 test standard.
- This product has been used typically for general applications requiring closed-cell, medium sponge rubber that will be flexible from -103 to +401 °F (-75 to +205 °C), but usage is not limited to such applications. Compression set may be high at the higher temperature.
FAR 25.853
- FAR 25.853 is a regulation part of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs), specifically addressing flammability requirements for materials used in the construction of commercial aircraft.
- The regulation mandates that materials used inside the aircraft cabin, such as seat cushions, wall panels, and flooring, must be flame-resistant and able to withstand specific fire tests.
- It includes specific criteria and test methods for assessing the flammability of these materials, ensuring that they do not easily ignite and, if they do, that they burn slowly and self-extinguish.
- Compliance with FAR 25.853 is critical for aircraft certification, focusing on enhancing passenger safety by minimizing the risks associated with in-flight fires.
