Installation


Please see Product Data Sheet and Installation Guide for detailed installation instructions.

Floor Installations

In floors, a permanent shuttering made from 50mm Rockwool slab (minimum density 140kg/m3 ) is cut and friction fitted between services and the edges of the floor slab. Firestop Compound is then trowelled over the shutter to a depth of 25mm thick. This is allowed to cure. Further Firestop Compound is then mixed to a pouring grade and tops the seal up to the required depth. Firestop Compound sets in 30-45 minutes and is capable of accommodating light foot traffic in approximately 72 hours.

  • Mix a bag of compound to 10 litres of water (3:1) by volume. Vary to suit site conditions
  • Set the shuttering into the opening ensuring a tight fit so that once the required depth of compound is installed it finishes flush with the floor slab/screed unless otherwise specified
  • Mix and pour compound until the required thickness is achieved

Wall Installations

In wall applications, Firestop Compound is mixed into a stiff consistency for trowelling into openings.

  • Mix a bag of compound to 10 litres of water (3:1) by volume. Vary to suit site conditions
  • Apply the compound using the specified shuttering method
  • Trowel the compound starting at the base of the opening ensuring the correct thickness of material is installed. Work progressively towards the top of the opening until the barrier is complete. If the shuttering panel is set at the centre, repeat the process on the other side.
