Thanks I’m not sure what brand it was it was wrapped in cellophane. Here’s a photos. I noticed one of the clips was pulling away from the bar so I added some electrical tape to the back. I’m probably going to have to do it to all of them.

I bet you could make some $$$ off those if you produced enough of them. Copyright them though...

Might want to make them hooked shaped next time so they can't pull away from the bar.

Wanted to remind you to wash your gear. You'll get tired of me sayin it but we just burried one a couple weeks ago.
I heard a report reciently that they are now looking @ AFFF as a possible carcinogen.
Back when I used/trained with the stuff the rumor was it was made of animal (cattle I believe) blood.
@420God What have you heard?

That is scary. I once pissed off a chem teacher by saying that a substance was either useful - or safe. Case in point: they put perflouroalkyls in this stuff ... great for fire suppression and floating big heavy airframes ... but it seems to be becoming another physiological time bomb.

Aqueous Film Forming Foam
Its a surfactant, there are different types of foam for firefighting, I think the one gwn is referencing is purple k, and I think its the same one in the town of fountain's (CO) drinking water. Class A and B foams are more like dish detergent but I will leave chemical composition to cb.

It is also important to wash the hoses, hand tools, scbas, radios/coms, basically everything in, on tand including he truck.
