CLASS D FIRES

Class D fires involve combustible metals such as aluminum, magnesium, titanium, zirconium, sodium, and potassium. These materials are particularly hazardous in their powdered form. The extremely high temperature of some burning metals makes water and other common extinguishing agents ineffective.
