Description

Intumescent Expansion Joints

Compressible fireproof sponge strips with foil-clad intumescent material on one or two sides, for use as movement or expansion joints. Furthermore, they also provide fire and insulation integrity.
 
The intumescent expansion joints are useful as movement or expansion joints in firewalls, floors, concrete slabs, and steelwork. Additionally, this is also useful as a cavity joint between brickwork and timber structures. Additionally, suitable for ventilation ducting as a movement and anti-vibration joint.
Fitted to seal over the tops of cable trays passing through protected building elements.
  • Easy to install and are unaffected by water, oil, or chemicals.
  • Made in a range of sizes to suit gaps up to 120mm wide, the expansion joints are easily installed giving protection to both horizontal and vertical gaps. There are ten standard sizes available and others made to order.

Tested to BS476 Part 22 (1987), sealing horizontal and vertical expansion joints of different widths. Achieving integrity and insulation results of up to 240 minutes. EN1366-4:2006+A1:2010 achieving 124 minutes of integrity and 52 minutes of insulation.
