Polyken 225FR is a 12 mil PE-coated cloth tape with a natural rubber-based adhesive engineered for aircraft cargo compartments — a premium flame retardant cargo pit duct tape combining the conformability and crisp hand-tear of a high-performance duct tape with the flame resistance required for cargo compartment use. Tested and proven compliant with FAR 25.853(a)(1)(ii), and tested to Douglas DMS 1968E, Fokker FK05-006 & FK05-113, and Lockheed LCP-86-1226-A.
Built for cargo pit sealing, seaming and repairing cargo compartment liner panels, covering pins and rivets, and patching, sealing, and bundling where high adhesion and flame resistance are critical. Its Deca-BDE-free formulation meets environmental requirements while delivering moisture, solvent, and abrasion resistance, and it tears cleanly by hand with a crisp, straight edge — no tools needed in the cargo compartment.
Manufacturer's Certificate of Analysis included free of charge.

FAQ
What is Polyken 225FR used for?
Polyken 225FR is a flame retardant cargo pit duct tape used for cargo pit sealing, seaming and repairing cargo compartment liner panels, covering pins and rivets, and patching, sealing, and bundling in aircraft cargo compartments.
Is Polyken 225FR flame retardant?
Yes. It is Deca-BDE free and compliant with FAR 25.853(a)(1)(ii), and tested to Douglas DMS 1968E, Fokker FK05-006 and FK05-113, and Lockheed LCP-86-1226-A specifications for use in aircraft cargo compartments.
Is Polyken 225FR heat resistant?
Polyken 225FR is flame retardant, meeting FAR 25.853(a)(1)(ii) for aircraft cargo compartment flammability. Its operating range is 40°F to 200°F. Like most duct tapes, it is not intended for continuous high-temperature exposure — its purpose is flame retardance and secure sealing, not thermal service.
What sizes does Polyken 225FR come in?
Polyken 225FR is available in 2" and 3" widths, each on 60-yard rolls, sold as single rolls, 3-roll packs, 8-roll packs, or full cases (24 rolls for 2", 16 rolls for 3").
