Is in no way would I classify myself as a fire stop expert, not even for novice one, but what I know, they start at a place! The goal of any fire-stop system is to maintain the integrity of a firewall to prevent the spread of fire and smoke. Notice I said "system". Many entrepreneurs simply use to seal fire, simply fill in cracks or voids. But you want a system to use.
What is a system?
It is more than just applying fire, fire penetration seals gaskets and putty. EachManufacturer testing his product and developed a system for detecting states that its product may be installed in a certain way to meet certain fire resistance class. Many systems will call for a thin-walled pipe, most contractors, the EMT, some fire wool and fire at the thick putty. But also note, they will tell you how much fire wool, gaskets and glue used and how much the tube can be filled.
The basic types of products that are used to fire seal, applied with a thick gun or moldable fire putty sticks.In addition, you will fire pillows, sleeves or pass through devices, mortar and foam-find products. Here, too, just not from a product and run it down, you can at the end she pulls out again!. Have a system.
More and more common in fire stop products, especially in the low-field are sleeves with intumescent fire putty built right in. Many entrepreneurs prefer these products because of their ease of use. While these products are expensive, they are quick to assemble and are muchmore fool proof then other types of systems. Unsplit Abesco products has a round tube that can be used in retrofit applications.
Who is it? Hilti is probably one of the major players in the fire stop. You have received an excellent work to the architects. Many projects are specified Hilti. 3M, Grace, Abesco and STI (there are many more I know!) Have to stop a full range of products fire. Most electrical, mechanical and drywall supply houses handle fire caulk with the mostthe big stores do yourself.
My disclaimer-Again, I am not an expert on fire to stop to scratch yet in this article even close to the surface of fire stop systems or applications. Think you know only because, as important to know what you're doing, and use brand name products and their "system".
