About
Our Thermal
Protection System.
TPS-611 is an advanced fire-resistant coating built around zero flash point technology. It is designed to actively repel heat and prevent the ignition of the protected material, rather than simply slowing the spread of fire.
See Our TestingHow Thermal Protection Systems Work
Thermal Protection Systems are designed to provide a barrier against the extreme temperatures generated by fire or high-heat environments. They work by reflecting heat back and creating an impermeable barrier that protects the material underneath from the direct effects of flames.
Unlike traditional fire-resistant coatings, which might delay the spread of fire or reduce the rate of heat transfer, a Thermal Protection System is intended to actively repel heat and prevent the ignition of the protected material.
Reflect
The coating works to reflect heat back rather than absorbing it into the substrate.
Insulate
An impermeable barrier is intended to protect the material below from the direct effects of flame.
Preserve
By preventing thermal penetration, the goal is to maintain the material's properties under thermal stress.
Tested at a Nationally Certified Lab.
TPS-611, developed by Legacy Technologies, underwent rigorous testing in a nationally certified burn testing laboratory located in New Jersey. The evaluation was designed to assess the coating's performance across a diverse range of materials critical to multiple industries.
Materials tested included steel, rail ties, and shingles. Each was chosen for its relevance to infrastructure and construction, areas where fire safety is paramount.
The testing procedure was concluded just ten minutes into the trial, as the materials coated with the TPS-611 remained entirely unaffected by the flames.
How TPS-611 Compares
Traditional fire-resistant coatings work by slowing combustion or reducing the rate of heat transfer. TPS-611 is built around a different design principle: actively repelling heat and preventing ignition of the protected material in the first place.
