ROCKWOOL Fire Barrier

A range of wired mineral wool mats designed to be hung from the soffit or roof construction to extend the line of a fire/compartment wall or to sub-divide extensive roof voids. ROCKWOOL Fire Barrier has a 25mm galvanised wire mesh to one face as standard, to produce a flexible Fire Barrier with optional aluminium foil faces.

Fix at head using the Rockwool angle support system, comprising an angle support and a clamping plate. At the base it is preferable to either wire the barrier to the ceiling grid or fix using the angle support system, although it can drape freely, turned back across the ceiling.

50 mm Fire Barrier, single and double layers, can be extended from a 3500 mm drop to a maximum 6000 mm drop by fixing an additional 2500 mm section stitched with overlapped joints. Contact Rockwool Technical Services for advice on the use of drops over 6000mm.
