The blanket is highly tear-resistant. The maximum tensile strength of the fabric is 2,200 N / 5 cm. Theoretically, an ordinary car could be suspended from a 1 x 1 m piece of fabric without it tearing. However, we have already inspected damage to fire blankets caused by improper application or removal. Therefore, we recommend to practice overlaying the blanket. Because with the right momentum, the fire blanket glides over the fire object almost as if on a cushion of air and then sinks. Removal should also be practiced, ideally with the blanket folded over first.
