Abstract: This invention relates to a lightweight, thin, flexible fabric for a cooking fire suppression cover comprising a woven core of fiberglass mesh coated on its top and bottom surfaces with aluminized silicone for use in suppressing and/or extinguishing over a period of time relatively small initially contained fires, such as cooking fires on a stove.

Abstract: A fire barrier fabric for improving the fire-resistance abilities of a fire protective system includes a fabric having an exterior surface and an interior surface, and an intumescent coating disposed on a portion of at least one of the exterior surface or the interior surface. The intumescent coating as disposed on the fabric achieves class A requirements of ASTM E84 standard test and exceeds a three hour burn-through test. The fire protective system can be used to protect cargo on air, ground, or water vehicles, to protect cables, and/or to protect structures or equipment from fire and water damage.

Abstract: A finished belt simulating a leather belt has in combination a finished belt strap and a finished buckle. The finished belt strap includes an unfinished molded plastic strap having a thin plastic front layer of light color and a continuous relatively thick plastic back layer of relatively dark color, and a film of finish disposed on the exposed surface of the strap front layer. The finished belt buckle includes an unfinished coextruded molded plastic buckle having a thick flexible plastic front layer of light color and a relatively thin rigid plastic back layer of relatively dark color, and a fiom of finish disposed on the exposed surface of the buckle front layer. The finished belt has in combination the finished belt strap and the finished belt buckle with the light colors being the same, the dark colors being the same, and the finish colors being the same.

Abstract: A belt designed to simulate the appearance of an expensive leather belt comprises a belt strap to form exclusively of molded plastic and having its front face and edge substantially uniformly machine finished. A fastener is secured to the belt strap adjacent one end thereof for operatively fastening the one strap end to the other strap end.

Abstract: A belt designed to simulate the appearance of an expensive leather belt comprises a belt strap to form exclusively of molded plastic and having its front face and edge substantially uniformly machine finished. A fastening means is secured to the belt strap adjacent one end thereof for operatively fastening the one strap end to the other strap end. An intermediate device for the simultaneous transport of a plurality of belt straps from a molding system and into and from a finishing system comprises a sheet of release paper defining a carrier and a plurality of belt straps of molded plastic having their back faces secured to the front face of the carrier for movement therewith as a unit.
