Wow,

Thanks for the feedback. The ones I am dealing with are above an ACT ceiling and undisturbed as of yet. I guess we need more research in order to determine what they are made of.
Thanks,
Greg

Greg, I had Armstrong 1'x1' interlocking, stapled acoustic tiles in my 
partially finished basement
when I moved in    ( long time ago). I took some and burned them in the 
fireplace. I was so appalled
by the inferno, I immediately tore down all the remaining tiles. (about 1500 sq 
ft). In the short
term, I much preferred the unfinished ceiling to the huge hazard I thought the 
tiles represented.

Subject: stapled ceiling tile

Does anyone know if the old stapled up interlocking ceiling tiles are
combustible?

I am sure there are multiple types of these ceilings but I am looking
for a generic answer.
Thanks,
Greg
