Is this product "Fire Safe" at all?

From what I understand it is for a short period of time..but there is no insulation on the inside to speak of...to get the fire safe version you need to shell out a few hundred more..

When I initially found this safe through another source I read it had a fire rating of 1200 degrees for 20 minutes. Not the best, however, I was satisfied because my safe is in my basement. If the house caught fire most of the heat would be on the top floor, I believe the contents would be safe. I hope this helps. Matt

Only to the point of dissipating heat with the steel shell. There is absolutely zero insulation on the inside and at the temps that they test these safes with, I'd imagine it would only last a min or two. If it was a small fire (that didn't spread for some reason), it would keep the contents safe from the direct flame.

I am not the manufacturer, but the description says it is fire resistant... Hope that helps

It is not. They make a series that is but it is more expensive. This is a great safe for the price point.

No you should never use material that is not specifically fire proof inside of a computer

I been doing it like that for about 15 years and never had a problem. They tell you to use fiberglass wrap so in case of a malfunction and it catches on fire they wouldn't be liable.

I do not believe these are fire rated, as I couldn't find any information on the Website or my manual.

Not according to their website or product data. I researched this product and found it seemed safe. They get around having to add flame retardants by not using the crazy flammable material (foam) that requires it. Instead they use naturally more flame resistant materials (eg. wool, cotton, natural rubber depending on which model you get).

It is a foam mattress so it will burn. I don't know if it would be considered highly flammable.

We have had this product since Easter and have used it several times, never having any fire issues. So sorry, we have loved ours.

Yes. Safe to use. But the question remains... will you be able to start a fire with it? I'd recommend watching some YouTube videos about starting fires with this type of device.

They don't claim it to be fire proof and it doesn't look like its made to be fireproof. It is solid steel construction. There doesn't seem to be any insulation.

Considering it was sent to me via mail I think you can check no. Really, what is not flammable if you intentionally set fire to it? It is not combustible, which is probably really what USPS wants to know.

No I would not consider it fireproof. How long it would last I don't know. I bought it for locking up keys at our office and nothing else.

If it is used for an actual fire, the heat could compromise its strength, rendering it unsafe for another usage. For such a low price, might as well replace it after a fire.

I don't know. It says it is. Check with the manufacturer. I will say its heavy, so its probably lined with something fireproof.

Not with a fire in it. All of the connector pieces are made of plastic and probably would not hold up to the heat.

Im not sure how heat resistant this is but I can assure you its not fire proof.

I would hope a fire safe safe would be good in a fire. I would not know directly because I haven't set my house on fire to find out. ;-)

Kim, I'm not really sure. It is somewhat heavier then the others I looked at, and well made, but I just didn't need to worry about any fire-retardant quality.
