FirePro® Firestop Compound
The installation of ROCKWOOL’s FirePro Firestop Compound provides up to 6 hours* fire protection to provide a fire resisting seal in masonry fire rated walls and floors. As independent tests have shown, when reinforced, Firestop Compound offers masonry and concrete walls or concrete floors with up to 360mins** protection for both integrity and insulation, and when un-reinforced, it offers up to 240mins* protection.
As part of the comprehensive FirePro® range of fire protection products, the Firestop Compound is an ideal solution for cable pipe and duct penetrations. The ROCKWOOL Firestop product is easy to use as it’s a specially formulated gypsum based compound, which is mixed with water to be trowelled or poured around service penetrations.*
*Subject to application
**Plastic pipework must be protected with either ROCKWOOL Firestop Pipe Collars or Intumescent Pipe Wraps. (See separate product information)
