Installation Notes

• SP Firestop Slabs are designed for cutting on site with a sharp knife or saw and a straight edge
• The cavity to be fire stopped should be measured and the Rockwool SP Firestop Slab cut to suit this dimension, using one piece only per gap width
• For easy compression fitting and to accommodate the fixing pattern, cutting should be along the 1000mm length
• The SP Fixing Brackets are then re-profiled by hand and cut as necessary to allow at least 75% penetration of the fire stop material
• They should be placed as shown in the diagrams in the product data sheet, or fixed by other suitable mechanical means
• Please Note: Rockwool SP Firestop System is not suitable for use as a horizontal fire barrier in ventilated façade systems
