Application

  • The FIREFLY® FB180 Ablative Batt Wall System can be installed as a non-load bearing compartmentation wall into restricted areas such as lofts and roof voids.
  • It can be friction-fitted into typical existing supporting timber frames and also used within a double layer plasterboard wall.

Description

FIREFLY® FB180 Ablative Batt – 60mm Wall System provides a single-layer EI60:E90 fire-rated compartmentation wall that can be installed free-standing or within timber or plasterboard applications.


Layers of mineral wool are combined to create a 60 mm thick board product, with an ablative coating factory-applied to both sides. The board has a weight of 180 kg/m³

with a rigidity that makes it suitable for friction fitting.


FIREFLY® FB180 Ablative Batt Wall System is tested with expected penetrations including the FIREFLY® Access Panel. See Installation Drawings/Manual for full details.

A complementary FIREFLY® FB180 Ablative Batt 60mm Floor System is also available.


Features and benefits:

  • Single layer 60 mm batt installation provides 90 minutes Integrity and 60 minutes Insulation.
  • Fully tested to BS EN 1364-1:2015 and BS EN 1366-3:2021 to also include penetrations and access panels.
  • Can be used to create a stand-alone non-load bearing wall, built from one side in restricted access areas to create compartmentations.
  • Tested for use with timber where it can be friction fitted between standard (minimum 90 x 38 mm C16 softwood) studs/joists, which must be treated with FIREFLY® Ablative Coating.
  • Also tested for use between two layers of plasterboard to increase fire rating of standard construction to EI60:E90.
  • Suitable and tested for use in conjunction with FIREFLY® flexible barriers and FIREFLY® FR120 Access Panel.
  • Ease of installation with standard batt tools and friction fitting – additional tracking not required to be used – and FIREFLY® fixings and Acrylic Sealant also available as part of the tested system.
  • Acoustic reduction of 27 dB from batt in isolation.
