Conduits are a new addition to the BS EN 1366-3 test standard, meaning there is a lack of test evidence in the industry. Listen to Alec Purdie explain cable conduits and the testing we...
In this short video, Craig Wells talks about firestopping electrical containment such as cables, ladders, baskets, bunches, etc. We now have test data utilising our QuelStop Fire Batt and QuelStop HPE Sealant. To learn more, go to our standard firestopping...
When faced with a plastic pipe penetrating the wall with an immediate bend, you may have moved the pipe, carried out some modifications, or perhaps installed an untested application. Not anymore! At...
In construction, we are seeing more emphasis on the energy efficiency of buildings; we’re seeing more insulation requirements for pipes, particularly copper pipes with thicker insulation to prevent heat loss. Therefore,...
As Adrian Wells explains, we have developed and fire tested a solution for firestopping plastic shower traps using QuelStop HPE Sealant and QuelStop Fire Batt. To learn more, go to our standard firestopping installation detail download page or contact us.
As Craig Wells, Quelfire, and Jean-Paul Krzowski, First Fix Formwork, explain, some recent testing we have done is with the Deck Box in conjunction with QF2 Fire Protection Compound. The QF2 combined with the perforations...
As Glenn explains, we have test evidence supporting CPVC sprinkler pipes enclosed with CPVC sleeves, with a QuelStop HPE Sealant annulus surrounding the sleeve. Another instance includes the Quelfire QIF Insulated Fire Sleeve, fitted within QuelStop Fire...
Did you know we also have a tested application for the QRS Fire Sleeve used in QuelStop Fire Batt with bundles of cables penetrating? To learn more, go to our standard firestopping installation detail download page or contact us....
As Timea explains, traditionally, for applications where the plasterboard aperture has been cut too large and fire batt has been installed pattress fitted on each side, we have provided an extra-long fire sleeve around plastic vent ducts. However,...
Our R&D team has been developing and testing more solutions for service penetrations that provide 120 minutes integrity and insulation. We have tested copper and steel pipes up to 108mm in diameter with continuous sustained rockfibre...
We now have further test data for 160mm PVC pipes in double batt using the QuelCoil Continuous Wrap. This also includes 160mm pneumatic pipes, which only have a wall thickness of just 3.2mm. To learn more,...
While we have a few ways to firestop small plastic, copper, and steel pipes, Quelfire QIF Insulation Fire Sleeves are another option for firestopping around small plastic and copper pipes up to 42mm within...
