Amerex B417T 2.5 lb ABC Dry Chemical Fire Extinguisher with Vehicle Bracket
FSP · P-02
What it is
Amerex B417T is a 2.5 lb ABC dry chemical fire extinguisher rated 1A:10B:C for ordinary combustibles, flammable liquids and gases, and live electrical equipment. Discharge runs 9 seconds with an initial range of 9 to 15 ft at 195 PSIG. The agent is a specially fluidized and siliconized mono ammonium phosphate that melts and coats the burning surface, insulating Class A fuel and breaking the chain reaction on Class B fires. The cylinder is drawn-steel with an anodized aluminum valve body, anodized aluminum handle and lever. A vehicle bracket ships with the extinguisher. The operating temperature range is −65°F to 120°F.
Small enough to tuck beside a seat yet rated for real fires, the Amerex B417T puts 2.5 lb of ABC dry chemical wherever space is tight. It carries a UL rating of 1A:10B:C, chemically insulating Class A fires by melting at approximately 350°F to coat the burning surface and smothering Class B fires by breaking the chain reaction—without conducting electricity back to the operator. The included vehicle bracket holds it fast in cars, trucks, and equipment cabs.

- Vehicle bracket included
- Anodized aluminum valve body, handle, and lever
- Durable high-gloss polyester powder paint over all-metal valve construction
