Fire Pillows Penetration Seals on Floors/Slabs/Walls
|
 Fire pillows are an efficient and quick method for sealing various service penetrations through walls, slabs or floors. The fire pillows we use are made from quality, water repellent, cloth envelopes enclosing a high temperature fire resistant granulated material. They can provide permanent protection from the spread of fire, but they are particularly useful when only temporary protection is required, eg where future cabling or services require regular access. Fire pillows are a low cost, yet effective, method of fire sealing. They are simple to install requiring minimum labour and can be removed and re-used if services need relocation. Normal installation of fire pillows involves laying in courses to completely fill the penetrations. When required to, provide for adequate overlap, the smaller sized pillows may be used at the end of each layer of pillows. Fire pillows allow for up to 3 hours protection and have been successfully tested and assessed by independent laboratories to meet the requirements of AS 1530: Part 4. They come in three convenient sizes:

Fire Mortar Penetration Seals on Floors/Slabs/Walls
FIRE MORTAR
 Fire mortar is an efficient and quick method for sealing various service penetrations through walls, slabs or floors. Fire mortar is ideal for larger penetrations and for a permanent solution, eg where future access will not be required. Fire mortar may be used on its own or in conjunction with most other fire protection systems used by FRS. For example it can have fire collars for PVC pipes cast into the fire mortar. The fire mortar we use is a lightweight, hydraulic cement composition supplied as a pre-mixed dry powder. Once on-site, simply add water to form the mortar. Fire mortar can be trowelled into position for sealing openings made through walls, slabs or floor for cables, metal pipes and other services. In the event of a fire, fire mortar can prevent the spread of fire and smoke from one compartment to another. This fire mortar has been successfully tested and assessed to BS 476: Part 20 and AS4072: Part 4 and AS 4072: Part 1 for fire ratings up to 4 hours. Available in a pre-mixed 20kg bag.

Fire strip is ideal for sealing movement joints at junctions between compartment walls and floors. Fire strips flexibility makes them suitable for use in a variety of configurations. Installation involves simply compressing one end between the thumb and fingers until it can be inserted into the required gap. The fire strip can then be progressively pushed into the gap, or if difficult, can be knocked into place with a hammer handle, rubber mallet or by placing a piece of timber along the length and knocking the timber. If a smoke or water seal is required, fire strip may have a suitable sealant applied according to the manufacturers instructions after installation. The strip is easily cut to size.
