Technical Information:

Firestopping solution for voids in walls and floors.

As part of the comprehensive FIREPRO range of fire protection products, the ROCKWOOL Ablative Coated Batt is intended to act as an airseal barrier to reinstate fire resistance and acoustic* performances.

The ROCKWOOL Ablative Coated Batt is intended to act as an airseal barrier to reinstate the fire resistance and acoustic* performances of concrete floors, masonry walls and dry wall systems when voids have been created for the passage of services. This includes pipes made of plain or stainless steel, cast iron, copper, polypropylene (PP ), high density polythene (HDPE ), PVC and ABS along with all sheathed cables up to 80mm and supported cable bundles up to 100mm.

Ablative Coated Batts can also be used as a ‘head-of-wall’ barrier to extend the fire resistance and acoustic performances of drywall or masonry walls that finish at suspended ceiling height, up to the concrete soffit above. For use in concrete floors please contact the Rockwool Technical Solutions team for size limitations.

In response to this growing and increasingly important market, ROCKWOOL has re-designed and tested the product to the dedicated fire resistance standard for penetration seals - EN 1366-3. Due to its specific nature, this document is intended to supersede the traditional BS 476: Parts 20 and 22 previously used for fire seal testing in the UK construction market. The tests have proved the capability of a single 50mm Batt to provide up to 2 hours fire resistance integrity, insulation ratings are dependent upon the service penetration. Where 4 hour integrity and insulation are required we recommend the use of our 60mm Coated Batt. Please refer to page 8 of the ROCKWOOL Firepro® brochure for the 60mm product.
