Bulkhead Plates are Special Order items available in unlimited configurations to use with our UNIQUE Split Sleeve Firestop Systems. These are problem solvers designed to repair large holes and multiple cable penetrations in an existing firewall. Made in the USA by skilled craftsmen.
See the Installation Pictorial for an example of a typical firewall violation returned to compliance using our Bulkhead Plates. To fabricate a pair of UNIQUE Bulkhead Plates for your firewall cable installation, we will need digital photos of both sides of the wall, height of the holes, stud spacing, cable type and cable count. Click on ‘Buy Now’ to access the Special Order form and send us the information we need to build your Plates. We will also include the Split Sleeve Systems to fit your installation. Or call us at 251-960-5018 for complete Customer Support.
High Expansion Intumescent Sealant is an easy to apply water-based acrylic emulsion sealant containing graphite. It expands at temperatures above 135ºc sealing around various penetrations and services to prevent the passage of smoke and flames.
PROMASEAL® IBS™ is a fire resistant, flexible foam strip which, when placed in joints and around service penetrations in floors and walls, will maintain the fire resistance of the separating element. In most instances the addition of PROMASEAL®-A Acrylic Sealant is necessary. On some occasions a non fire resistant sealant can be applied.
PROMASEAL® IBS™ is a factory made product and can be easily verified as being installed in the correct manner.
PROMASEAL® IBS™ generally is used in lieu of a fire resistant sealant where the specifying authority or certifying body is concerned that the correct depths of sealant or the correct type sealant may not be applied by the contractor.
PROMASEAL® IBS™ accommodates movement in building services, e.g. the expansion or contraction of metal pipes, while maintaining the integrity of the penetration. It can be used for external wall joints in conjunction with an exterior grade sealant.
PROMASEAL® IBS™ is not designed for use in control joints that are designed to accommodate high or ongoing movement.
No special precautions are required. However, to avoid potential for fibre generation exists, please wear appropriate personal protection gear (safety goggles, protective clothing and dust mask). For more information please check the material safety data sheet, available upon request.
Handle as construction industry waste and dispose of in compliance with all local and national regulations in the appropriate and approved manner.
PROMASEAL® FyreStrip is a highly compressible, flexible, fire resistant expansion strip seal which is used where movement joints are formed in the structure of a building. It consists of layers of PROMASEAL® Grafitex intumescent material bonded to a special foam and it has been successfully tested for up to 240 minute fire resistance for movement joint seals within concrete/masonry compartment floors and walls (with an equal or greater fire resistance level).
PROMASEAL® FyreStrip is ideal for sealing high movement joints at junctions between compartment walls and floors. Its flexibility makes them suitable for use in a variety of configurations. The fire performance of PROMASEAL® FyreStrip will vary according to the particular application. The width of the gap into which the strip will be inserted as well as the orientation of the strip affect the level of fire resistance provided.
