Protecta FR Graphite Plate, preformed self-adhesive intumescent plates to reinstate the fire resistance performance of flexible wall constructions for up to 120 minutes when punctured with plastic wall boxes. Used where walls have been provided with apertures for the penetration of conduits and cables into socket boxes, on one or both sides of the wall.
Protecta FR Graphite Plate, part of the Protecta Firestopping range, is a preformed self-adhesive intumescent plate used to reinstate the fire resistance performance of flexible wall constructions for up to 120 minutes when punctured with plastic wall boxes. It is used where the walls have been provided with apertures for the penetration of conduits and cables into socket boxes, on one or both sides of the wall.
The graphite plate immediately reacts to fire through the heat and automatically expands and fills up the box, preventing fire from passing through. Fitting Protecta FR Graphite Plate will reinstate the fire resistance performance of flexible wall constructions for up to 120 minutes, also preventing the passage of fire through the electrical conduits between socket boxes.
