Heck, it's Friday afternoon so I'll take a "swing" at this. I have to agree with Steve and Chris...probably some kind of plastic. If not Group A, then Group B or Group C would make it Class "fore" or Class 3. What I'd really like to do is go out to the driving range and try burning a bucket of balls to see how big a fire I get...hit a few and burn a few. I love this forum...not only for the technical interpretations, but also for the interesting topics offered for discussion. Hope y'all have a great weekend. rick

Most, but not all golf balls these days are two piece. The center of them is generally rubber and the exterior is a type of plastic. I would say - from what I've read on manufacturer's sites and the web at large, that this would be a Group A.

I was figuring minimum four and after looking I can base it on that or "the next level up" and not be way out of wack - and provide my basis in my scope. That way if its something else once they do their homework, it can be adjusted. Thanks, Bobby Gillett Sr. Project Manager Key Fire Protection, Inc.

Sorry had to go there. And I assume you and I are the only ones working because no one else jumped on that. I'm thinking free flowing plastics? But reading the definition I have a hard time believing they will block the flue. A pile though may create a smothering effect. I'm sticking with plain old plastics because it's an 'and' on block the flue and smother.
