lant firmly into joint, smoothing off with a wetted spatula. Masking tape should be removed within 10 minutes of application.
Application temperature: +5°C to +40°C
Clean: Uncured Fire Acrylic FR may be removed from tools with water. Cured sealant must be removed mechanically.
Finishing: with soapy water
Repair: with Fire Acrylic FR
We recommend a preliminary compatibility test.
Shelflife:
At least 12 months in unopened packaging in a cool and dry storage place at temperatures between +5°C and +25°. Protect against frost!
Approvals:
Fire Acrylic FR has been independently tested to the following assessments:
•an indicative fire test based on BS476 Part 20 at Warrington Fire Research and achieved a 4 hour fire rating (integrity) for a range of vertical and horizontal joints up to 35mm wide between various non combustible construction materials. A 1 hour fire rating (integrity) was achieved for a range of vertical joints up to 25mm wide between combustible materials (timber).
•Naval Engineering standard test NES 711, issue 3 and achieved an average toxicity index of 0.44.
•Sound tested for acoustic performance values and achieved values of between 46 and 55 dBA indicating the sealant should uphold acoustic performance requirements of most normal partitioning systems.
Remarks:
•Do not use in applications where continuous water immersion is possible.
•Not suitable in joints where movement exceeds + or - 15% of joint width
•Not suitable in external joints.
•Firecryl Intumescent can be painted over with most paints. If the sealant is to be over painted, building regulations may require a fire resistant coating.
•The paint should be sufficiently elastic to be applied on a plasto-elastic sealant.
•It is recommended that a sealant depth of at least 15mm be applied.
Health- and safety recommendations:
Apply the usual industrial hygiene. Consult the label for more information
