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.

A UL Yellow Card contains UL-verified flammability and electrical characteristics. UL IDES 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.
