This article is about an older version of DF.


Fire-safe materials are building materials that cannot catch on fire. These include glass, metal, and most stone. Wood is not a fire-safe material, and neither are Template:L or Template:L. Template:L and Template:L are flammable stone, and therefore not fire-safe. Fire-safe materials are only required when the object is going to come into contact with extreme heat, such as a Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L or Template:L, or for the magma-powered versions of these facilities.

Flux materials, such as Template:L, which are consumed in the purification of Template:L to produce Template:L, are considered fire-safe. It is perfectly fine to use limestone as a flux material to make steel in a limestone smelter.

Template:L are a different thing entirely; while many fire-safe materials will still melt when submerged in Template:L, that is not an issue for buildings that are merely powered by the magma.
