SCIMATCO Wooden Flammables Cabinets

Product Introduction

The SciMatCo wooden flammables cabinet offers robust, heat-resistant storage for flammable liquids and small quantities of hazardous materials on laboratory benches. Constructed from 1" multi-ply exterior-grade plywood, the SC8023 bench model provides a liquid-tight trough floor, internal metal lock, and self-closing door option that meets OSHA, NFPA #30, Uniform Fire Code (UFC) and UL listing requirements where applicable. Wood’s thermal insulation and dimensional stability under heat make it an effective barrier against fire exposure, providing an alternative to metal cabinets that resists rust and retains shape during a fire.

Features

• Constructed of 1" multi-ply exterior-grade plywood for durability and thermal insulation.
• Liquid-tight 2" trough floor to contain spills and facilitate safe bench storage.
• Self-closing door option (required in many jurisdictions) for automatic door closure to limit vapor escape and fire spread.
• Internal metal lock with 2 keys for secure access.
• Meets OSHA, NFPA #30, UFC (self-closing models) and is UL listed where specified.
• Wood resists rust and does not distort or bend under fire heat, providing thermal protection compared with metal cabinets.
• Compact bench design for convenient lab-top placement.

Common Applications

• Safe bench-top storage of small quantities of flammable liquids in research and teaching laboratories
• Temporary containment of solvents and volatile reagents near workstations
• Facilities seeking a rust-free alternative to metal flammables cabinets with enhanced thermal insulation properties
• Environments where self-closing doors are required by local code
