Are you CONFIDENT of the long-term performance of your Firestop products ?
Your confidence is assured with SELF SEAL® FIRESTOPPING PRODUCTS.
Patented Intumescent:
Maintains its structure and intumescent function even after rigorous ANSI/UL1479 accelerated aging and high humidity tests.
Char-composite effectively seals service penetrations.
Responds quickly in a fire situation.
100% Silicone Reliability:
Withstands wide temperature range
Primerless adhesion
High resistance to UV, ozone, sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide
Remains pliable for decades
Withstands water exposure
Can outlast latex products
ANSI / UL1479 mandatory exposure tests:
Accelarated aging - 270 days @ 700
High Humidity - 180 days @ 350C and 97 - 100% Relative Humidity Our confidence in the Self-Seal intumescent products encouraged us to conduct supplementary exposure tests
Industrial Atmosphere - 30 days in a 1% by volume atmosphere of Sulfur Dioxide (S02) and an equal volume of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) @ 350C with moisture present.
Combination Wet, Freeze abd Dry Cycling - Simulated raindall at a rate of 0.7 inch per hour for 72 hours, followed by a temoerature exposure of minus 400C for 72 hours. and then a dry temperature exposure of plus 600C for 72 hours. Test samples were cycled 12 times.
Two Important Features of Self-Seal Firestopping Products:
- The first patented intumescent firestop product to demonstrate that after rigorous accelerated aging
conditions, it can continue to expand effortlessly and uniformly to form a char-composite that
properly seals service penetrations in a fire situation.
- 100% silicone elastomeric technology. Silicones have a wide variety of advantages over organic
latex (see below).
In addition to the superb line of 100% Silicone Firestop Solutions, Self-Seal GG-266, Type SSC, Type
SSR and FireBand are already in compliance with the 3rd edition of ANSI / UL1479 “Fire Tests of through penetration Firestops” to be effective May 23, 2006.
ANSI /UL1479 Compliant Self-Seal Firestopping Products include:
GG-266 Intumescent Silicone Caulk:
This single component, neutral cure, non-slumping intumescent caulk exhibits
excellent performance stability. The 100% silicone based caulk ensures a seal
superior to a latex based firestop.
Type-SSR Firestop Rings:
These silicone rubber intumescent insert rings are available for 1.5”, 2”, 3” and 4”
trade pipe sizes and will rapidly seal combustible pipes in a fire-rated walls and
floors.
FireBand Wrap Strips:
This silicone rubber intumescent wrap strip is encapsulated within a poly bag.
The Self-Seal Fireband is pre-fabricated to fit 1.5”, 2” and 3” trade pipe sizes
(Available in Canada Only)
Type-SSR Firestop Rings:
These silicone rubber intumescent insert rings are available for 1.5”, 2”, 3” and 4”
trade pipe sizes and will rapidly seal combustible pipes in a fire-rated walls and
floors.
Why are Silicone Firestopping Products an optimum choice?:
Extreme temperatures during shipping and storage can ruin many water-based latex firestops, but silicone based firestops allow for worry free transportation and storage.
Primerless adhesion to many substrates, ie. glass, metals, plastics and concrete
High resistance to atmospheric gases. ie. ozone, carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide
Silicones last for the long-term and remain flexible for decades and will not harden, crack or
become brittle. This ensures that Self-Seal firestops will maintain their crucial sealing properties.
Unaffected by Ultra-Violet radiation.
Will withstand exposure to water often found on construction sites.
