FortaFire Under Test

A pictorial walk through of #Fortafire from #TBAPS being tested by UL at IFT Rosenheim. A 5m x 5m furnace, assessed to BS EN1364 and UL 263.

The start of test (top left) , end of fire test 2 hours (top middle) , this is when we stopped, it would have sat there all day, not the engineer in baseball cap and t-shirt being very relaxed just a foot away from the furnace with our 60mm barrier keeping him safe from the furnace.

Top right and bottom left shows what 1000+ Celsius looks like (remember the engineer in the baseball cap).

Middle bottom and bottom left shows the 5 minute hose stream test ( a major part of UL 263), #FortaFire stood up to that pretty well, as you can see.

The product can be used with the frame shown (needed for the hose steam test in this instance), ideal if being used in a partition wall application or as a fully flexible barrier with stapled joints if required. Vertical or horizontal orientation it performs excellently. A full range of sealants, collars, seals etc are available. Very easy to install.
