Description
Designed for use with the QuelStop Fire Batt System, this product offers a range of features and benefits.
Primarily, the QuelStop Ablative Coating is used to restore the fire rating of the QuelStop Fire Batt by repairing any damage caused during the installation.
It can also be utilised as part of a tested firestopping system, and applied to individual services where they cross compartment lines. This helps improve the fire-resistance performance.
The QuelStop Ablative Coating is water-based, providing easy application by brush. With its rubber-like and fire-resistant properties, this coating acts as a barrier in the event of a fire, helping to prevent the spread of fire and smoke.
