Asbestos containing material (ACM) that is friable has a much greater potential than non-friable ACM to release airborne asbestos fibers when disturbed. The most common friable ACM used in the past are surface materials (usually sprayed fireproofing, texture, decorative or acoustic sprayed finishes) and thermal insulations on mechanical systems. Asbestos-containing non-friable materials include vinyl floor tiles, drywall joint compound and plaster, gasket materials, asbestos cement pipe or board, asbestos textiles, etc. Note that though a product may be considered non-friable when new, if the product releases fine dust due to deterioration or during removal, the free dust is considered friable. Potentially friable materials (or sometimes called miscellaneous friable materials) include materials such as ceiling tiles and plaster. These materials are non-friable in place but can generate dust upon removal.
