Vegetable and Plant Fibre

General Specifications Fibreflex "Detroiter" Plant Fibre

A. Scope: Fibreflex “Detroiter” is an excellent grade of vegetable fibre sheet packing, efficiently saturated with a glue-glycerine impregnant rendered insoluble by means of a tanning agent (formaldehyde) to give a strong, flexible, all-proof packing with properties retained during proper storage and in use.

B. Certification: Fibreflex “Detroiter” is certified to meet the below listed specifications.

HH-P-96G, Type 1 only (Federal Specification)
MIL-G-12803A Ident. No. P3313B
MIL-G-12803B & MIL-G-12803C Ident. No. F326128M6
ASTM D 1170 and SAE J90 Ident. No. P3313B
ASTM F 104 and SAE J90 Ident No. F326128-E21-M6
Underwriters' Laboratory Listing No. MH 4649 (763N)

C. Physical Characteristics:

Fibre 45% to 55%
Moisture 6% to 10%
Chemical Solids 35% to 45%

D. Conditioning: All samples conditioned prior to testing as specified by applicable application – usually 50% RH – 70 to 85°F for a period of 22 or 24 hours.

E. Standards: (Using American Society of Testing Materials Specification ASTM F 104 prepared jointly with the Society of Automotive Engineers and similar in requirements to MIL-G-12803C.

Original Test Load
Physical Compressibility Ident. No. P3313B
Properties Tensile Strength Ident. No. F326128M6
Physical Fuel B – Thickness increase 5% maximum
(Not applicable to MIL-G-12803C)
Properties #3 Oil – Thickness increase 5% maximum
After Fuel B – Weight increase 15% maximum
(Not applicable to MIL-G-12803C)
Impression #3 Oil – Weight increase 15% maximum
Water – Weight increase 100% maximum

F. Thickness Tolerances:

Thickness Plus or Minus
.006", .010" and .015" .0035"
.021", .031", .046", and .062" .005"
.096" (3/32") .008"
.125" (1/8") and up .016"

G. Flexibility: Fibreflex "Detroiter" is capable of withstanding bending around a rod with a diameter of twice the thickness of the material under test, without cracking, breaking or excessive marring of the surfaces.

H. Temperature Limit:................................................250°F
