Fireproof material (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

asbestos

'fireproof material' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for asbestos that I've seen before include "Firewall material" , "Fire-resistant material dangerous to health" , "Fireproof material, dangerous to health" , "'Fireproof substance, dangerous to health (8)'" , "Fire defence" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, The Telegraph, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Sun.
