Notes
1 These links provide you with access to supplier literature. We work hard to keep them up to date; however you may find the most current literature
from the supplier.
2 A UL Yellow Card contains UL-verified flammability and electrical characteristics. UL Prospector continually works to link Yellow Cards to
individual plastic materials in Prospector, however this list may not include all of the appropriate links. It is important that you verify the association
between these Yellow Cards and the plastic material found in Prospector. For a complete listing of Yellow Cards, visit the UL Yellow Card Search.
