When i worked for my last company we also used Universal and found them to be very knowledgable and responsive.
They were able to supply us with a UL 94 HF-1 flame class filter that was also met the Telcordia requirements for flammability - which I cannot remember now off the top of my head. They also made up an aluminium holder for the filter which meant we were able to easily slot it in/out of the (telecoms) equipment chassis for cleaning and/or replacement.

I can not give you a specific part number or material type without doing a lot of research that I don't have time to do. However if you contact them I'm pretty sure that they would have what you need. I have included their contact information below. Universal Air Filter Company 1624 Sauget Industrial Parkway P.O.

I have talked to our mechanical engineer, the ideal material would: 1. Serve to filter dust/lint from air coming into our chassis. (I don't have an exact spec for particle size.) 2. The material would be die cuttable so that we could have a shop cut different configurations of it in large quantities. 3. About 1/8" to 1/16" thick. 4. Non hygroscopic (won't absorb water) 5. Non-flammable. 6. Slightly compressible (We would want to deflect the material possibly 10% or so just to hold it in place. I would assume a maximum desired deflection of 25%.) 7. Strong (i.e. we don't want it to rip or tear) Does anybody know of a material that comes close to what we want? AdTHANKSvance for your help.
