A multi-use fire rated sealant which prevents the spread of fire through fire rated walls, floors, linear joints, cable and pipe penetrations.
Suitable for most surfaces, including concrete, masonry, steel, gypsum, glass, plastics and most non-porous surfaces.
Protecta® FR Acrylic can be used with a suitable filling material i.e. stone wool or Protecta® backing material in order to secure correct width to depth ratio, and to reduce the shrinking of the sealant during curing. Minimum depth and maximum width of the joints are included in the installation instructions. Thermal activation takes place at approx. 180°C when the material will expand (intumesce) and prevent the passage of fire and smoke for periods up to and beyond four hours.
Designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through joints and openings in fire rated walls and floors (including openings formed around building service penetrations). Protecta® FR Acrylic will also maintain acoustic design performance.
When subjected to atmospheric conditions, the sealant cures however, will retain a degree of elasticity for joint movement. Under fire exposure, Protecta® FR Acrylic creates a robust fire seal by the formation of a durable intumescent char.
