3M Window Graphic Film 8170-P50 and 8170-P40: fire rating
Every fire result 3M publishes for this film, the substrate the specimen was mounted on, and whether each rating is a test of this product. Best evidence basis across its rows: Not published — the basis is per row, so read the standard beside it.
These are 3M's published results, not our testing. For a permit or a fire marshal, request the current certificate for your product and lot. Nothing here replaces the authority having jurisdiction's approval. We install film; we do not certify it.
Every rating on file
| Standard | Result | Specimen mounted on | Evidence basis | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ASTM E84 | The bulletin links to E84 reports rather than printing a result; no index appears in the document. | — | Not published | 3M Product Bulletin — Window Graphic Film 8170-P50 and 8170-P40 |
What to hand a fire marshal
- ASTM E84 (Not published): there is no published result to hand over — request the current certificate for your product and lot from 3M before the install date. The current bulletin states no fire result and refers the question to 3M or the online catalog. Absence of a number in the document is not a failing grade — it means you must request the certificate for your lot.
