Existing compound installations can be easily drilled to allow the provision of additional or replacement services, which can subsequently be re-sealed.
As part of the comprehensive FIREPRO® range of fire protection products, the Firestop Compound is an ideal solution for cable pipe and duct penetrations. The ROCKWOOL Firestop product is easy to use as it’s a specially formulated gypsum-based compound mixed with water to be trowelled or poured around service penetrations.*
*Plastic pipework must be protected with either ROCKWOOL Firestop Pipe Collars or Intumescent Pipe Wraps. (See separate product information)
