It doesn't I'm afraid and we currently have nothing else we could recommend for application on to galvanised ducting for fire protection.

New galvanised steel should be treated with Teamac Mordant Solution (T Wash) and then primed with Thermoguard High Build Metal Primer prior to application of Thermoguard Thermocoat W. Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat should be applied if the steel is to remain visible or will be exposed to moisture of any degree.

Please see specification below to provide 30min fire protection to interior, ready primed steel sections.

To suitably prepared and primed steel apply the below WFT (Wet Film Thickness) of Thermoguard Thermocoat W to the steel. The steel once protected with sufficient Thermocoat W must be top coated with at least 1 good coat of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat.

Please provide us with as much of the following information as possible;

- Level of fire protection required (i.e. 30, 60, 90min, etc.)
- Each steel section dimension (i.e. 254x146x37 UB)
- Quantity and length of each section (or overall meterage for each section)
- Orientation (horizontal or vertical)
- Number of sides to be painted (all sides, 3 sides, 1 flange, etc.)
- Environment (internal, external, car park, chemical exposure, etc.)
- Application on site or in shop

Alternatively you can just forward us drawings, fabrication/cutting lists and we'll extract the information from them but in that instance we'd need some guidance as to what to allow for i.e. all steels on first floor, etc.

5m of 193.7 CHS (Circular Hollow Section) with a minimum of 4mm wall thickness would give you approximately 3.1m² of surface area to paint. To achieve 30min protection you would require 8 litres of Zeroflame Aquasteel WB+ (assuming all internal, dry environment).

Assuming the steel has already been primed with a suitable primer, Zeroflame Aquasteel WB+ can be applied directly over this as long as it is clean and sound (no flaking, rust spots, bare metal areas, etc.). Once applied, Zeroflame Aquasteel WB+ Finish should be applied in the colour of your choice.

We wouldn't recommend Thermoguard Thermocoat W for this application.

To suitably prepared and primed 178x102x19 UB and 120x120x5 SHS steel apply 600 microns WFT (Wet Film Thickness) of Thermoguard Thermocoat W to achieve 30min protection. The steel once protected with sufficient Thermocoat W must be top coated with 2 coats of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat assuming the steel is located externally (ensure no areas are horizontal and subject to ponding/standing water).

To prepare your new, bare galvanised steel we would recommend Teamac Mordant Solution (T Wash) followed by Thermoguard High Build Metal Primer.

Based on the lengths of your steels you would require 5lt of Teamac Mordant Solution (T Wash), 2.5lt of Thermoguard High Build Metal Primer, 5kg of Thermoguard Thermocoat W and 2.5lt of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat in your chosen colour and finish. 

It is your responsibility to check the workout against the actual steels, any alterations should be notified before work begins.

Wet film gauges are supplied free of charge with any order of Thermocoat W.

After use, certification can be applied for here: http://www.thermoguarduk.com/fire-certificates/

In certain instances after extensive testing and approval by Thermoguard, Thermocoat W can be applied to steel with existing (non fire protection) paints to achieve 60 minute protection. To be able to advise whether the steels you have may be suitable, we would first need the following information;

• Each steel section dimension (i.e. 254x146x37 UB)
• Quantity and length of each section (or overall meterage for each section)
• Orientation (horizontal or vertical)
• Number of sides to be painted (all sides, 3 sides, 1 flange, etc.)
• Environment (internal, external, car park, chemical exposure, etc.)

To suitably prepared and primed 356x171 steel apply 1000 WFT (Wet Film Thickness) of Thermoguard Thermocoat W to achieve 60min protection. The steel once protected with sufficient Thermocoat W must be top coated with 1 coat of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat assuming the steel is located internally.

At 7.6m long this would require 12.5kg of Thermoguard Thermocoat W + 2.5lt of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat in your chosen colour and finish. 

After use, certification can be applied for here: http://www.thermoguarduk.com/fire-certificates/

To be able to advise on the number of coats required we would need to know the steel size (i.e. 254x146x37), length, number of sides to paint and orientation (i.e. horizontal or vertical).

Steel and cast iron should be free from rust and millscale and primed with Thermoguard High Build Metal Primer to 75 microns DFT (or alternative good quality anti-corrosive primer compatible with intumescent paints) in accordance with manufacturers instructions. Treat galvanised surfaces with T Wash/Mordant Solution & prime with zinc phosphate or other suitable primer for steel.

Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat can be used to redecorate and Thermoguard would certify it maintains existing fire protection, whatever that may be. However a Fire Certificate can only be issued for 90 mins if Thermoguard assess and are able to find they can propose a method to apply Thermoguard Thermocoat W over what is left of existing basecoat after removal of overcoat, plus high spots or upper layer of existing intumescent via electric hand tool abrasion.

Please contact our Technical Department for more details - [email protected] / 0113 2455450

To achieve 60min protection on your steel, apply Thermoguard Thermocoat W @ 450 microns WFT. Followed by (once dry) 2 coats of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat in Eggshell or Gloss finish in the desired RAL or BS colour.

Steel must be clean, dry and well primed (no bare areas, rust or other paints/coatings present). Fire Certificate issued free of charge upon application, Wet Film Gauges supplied to measure as you go to ensure correct thickness is achieved.

Materials required for this project are as follows;

• 3 x 5kg of Thermoguard Thermocoat W
• 1 x 5lt Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat

Notes:
1. Un-primed steel sections must be primed with a suitable primer prior to the application of the intumescent paint.
2. Existing paint systems should be stripped back to bare steel, cleaned and degreased etc. prior to re-priming.
3. It is advised that you read and understand the relevant product data sheets before undertaking any projects.
4. Please check that steel specifications are correct before placing orders.
5. All of the above materials should be used in order to satisfy the project requirements.

To provide any information in relation to coverage or film thickness required for Thermoguard Thermocoat W we first need to know some details of the steel requiring protection. Please contact our Technical Department on 0113 2455450 or [email protected]. Please provide us with as much of the following information as possible;

• Level of fire protection required (i.e. 30, 60, 90min, etc.)
• Each steel section dimension (i.e. 254x146x37 UB)
• Quantity and length of each section (or overall meterage for each section)
• Orientation (horizontal or vertical)
• Number of sides to be painted (all sides, 3 sides, 1 flange, etc.)
• Environment (internal, external, chemical exposure, etc.)

Alternatively you can just forward us drawings, fabrication/cutting lists and we'll extract the information from them.

Thermoguard Thermocoat W is for use on steel and the coverage is determined by the level of fire protection required (30min, 60min, etc.) and the size of the steels to be protected. If you require fire protection for wood see Thermoguard Timbercoat.
