Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC BM0405 is a Type 2 Thermal Stove and Wall Board designed as a floor protector beneath and around solid-fuel and wood-burning stove installations. Constructed from non-combustible materials in a slate finish, this 32-inch by 42-inch board meets ASTM E162 and ASTM E136 standards for surface flammability and combustibility.
