Certifire Certificate
Certificate type
Cement-based wet mix spray producing a monolithic coating able to withstand thermal shocks experienced typically in a high intensity hydrocarbon fire.
Suitable for application by trowel in interior and fully exposed environments. Suitable substrates include: Existing Cafco FENDOLITE® MII, concrete, non-primed and primed steel. Concrete curing agents should not be used.
Cement-based wet mix spray producing a monolithic coating able to withstand thermal shocks experienced typically in a high intensity hydrocarbon fire.
Concrete structures in particular will be protected from explosive spalling when protected using Cafco FENDOLITE® MII.
Although low in density, thus significantly reducing dead load, Cafco FENDOLITE® MII is highly durable and will not crack or spall under mechanical impact.
Used for application to construction elements such as concrete or individual steel sections
Features and benefits:
Application:
Suitable for application by trowel in interior and fully exposed environments. Suitable substrates include: Existing Cafco FENDOLITE® MII, concrete, non-primed and primed steel. Concrete curing agents should not be used.
Finish | Trowel finished |
Features | Fire resistance for up to 240 minutes, applied by plastering techniques enabling repairs to be completed without the need to introduce spray plant onto the site; durable solution, resistant to impact damage; may be levelled to present a trowelled finish and can be easily removed and reinstated locally when additional fixings are required |

Thickness | Insert requirement. Practical thickness (minimum): 8 mm when unreinforced, 15 mm when reinforced. The thickness of the fire protection for a given period of fire resistance in a cellulosic type fire relates to the A/V ratio of the section. For advice on thickness calculations for hollow sections, cellular beams, castellated sections, composite floors, upgrading of concrete slabs and more complex situations, contact manufacturer. |
