Application

PFC Corofil Rainscreen Fire Barrier 2 (RSB2) has been developed to provide both vertical and horizontal firestopping for a variety of

cladding systems. Tested in accordance with BS EN:1363-1:1999 and to the principles of EOTA TR31, the system has been shown to

provide up to 60 minutes fire protection. PFC Corofil Rainscreen Fire Barrier 2 offers a minimum free cavity of 25mm to allow water,

drainage and air circulation behind rainscreen panels.

General benefits:

RSB2 expands rapidly to form a robust fire barrier between the inner substrate and back of the rainscreen panel.

Suitable for cavities from 50mm to 300mm wide using timber, cement board and masonry/concrete substrates

Fast and easy to install, easy to cut with knife

Supplied in 1 metre lengths with pig tail screws and brackets (where required)

May be fitted directly to face of rainscreen insulation (limitations apply)

Weather resistant

Description

PFC Corofil Rainscreen Fire Barrier 2 consists of a polythene wrapped, high expansion intumescent strip which is fixed into a high density

mineral wool strip (75mm deep). Each metre long piece of the intumescent is secured to the mineral wool by means of 4 x 65mm pig

tailed screws, ensuring that the heads of the screws completely span the remaining air gap to the back of the panel.

The product is manufactured to suit the overall size of the cavity between the inner wall and back of the rainscreen panel.

All insulation must be removed in the plane of the fire barrier. The width of the seal is 25mm/35mm less than the overall cavity (inclusive

of insulation thickness) and the depth of the seal in all applications is 75mm.

For smaller cavities up to 100mm wide, PFC Corofil Rainscreen Fire Barrier 2 seals may be directly fixed at mid point to the inner

substrate using nails or screws. For cavities ranging from 101mm - 300mm wide, the seal is supported on the inner substrate by spiking

the barrier mid depth with a minimum of 2 x galvanised steel brackets, for each complete or off cut length. The galvanised steel brackets

must be spiked by a minimum of 75% of the seal’s width. All joints in the barrier must be tightly abutted and any small gaps arising

between the back of the barrier and the inner substrate must be sealed with PFC Corofil Acoustic Intumescent Sealant.

Fire Rating

Tested in accordance with BS EN:1363-1:1999 and to the principles of EOTA TR31, the fire ratings for integrity only are available with the following substrates and fixing methods.

Timber Frame with OSB Board

Screws or nails must penetrate a minimum of 25mm into a structural timber member. Stainless steel staples must be a minimum 14mm long at 250mm centres. Screw / nail head not to exceed 11.5mm in diameter and must have trumpet or countersunk heads. No washers must be used to retain the seal.

Application

An increasing number of cladding constructions require

the external cladding to be held away from the building

structure to create a void. Whilst this may resolve any

ventilation and moisture dissipation problems, the cavity

also creates a serious fire protection problem.

The cavity acts like an open chimney allowing fire to

spread both vertically and horizontally around the building.

PFC Corofil VFB+ Ventilated Fire Barrier is designed to

maintain the open cavity in normal conditions but will

expand to seal off the cavity in a fire.

Fire Rating

Tested in accordance with BS 476:Part 20 & 22:1987,

PFC Corofil VFB+ Ventilated Fire Barrier has provided up

to 30 minutes and 90 minutes respectively in combustible

timber frame and non-combustible constructions. The

product meets the requirements of Approved Document B

of the UK Building Regulations.

PFC Corofil VFB+ Ventilated Fire Barrier System has

been tested with the following cladding build-ups and

attained the following fire integrity ratings with a free air

gap of 44mm wide.

Description

PFC Corofil VFB+ Ventilated Fire Barrier is manufactured

using a high expansion intumescent strip mechanically

fixed into a PFC Corofil C144 Strip.

General benefits:

Creates a fire barrier behind the cladding

Suitable for cavity widths from 50mm to 400mm in

accordance with the fire rating table

Intumescent material expands to fill an open cavity

of up to 44mm wide

Simple and quick installation, time saving of up to

75% over other barriers

Fire tested horizontally and vertically

Allows ventilation and moisture dissipation thus

preventing damp problems

Description

PFC Corofil Acoustic Intumescent Sealant is a high

specification, one part water based acrylic sealant,

extruded from a cartridge loaded into a standard

sealant gun. The depth of the joint will depend on the

gap to be filled and the fire rating required (see fire

rating).

All surfaces must be thoroughly clean and free of

bond breaking contaminants prior to application of the

sealant. No priming is required for most construction

substrates, however, it is recommended that a small

area be tested on substrates.

The sealant should not be applied if the ambient

temperature is below 5ºC as adhesion will be

impaired. The sealant is fast curing approximately 15

minute tack free time. When fully cured, the sealant is

overpaintable. Under fire conditions the sealant forms

a fire resistant ash.

Description

PFC Corofil HE Intumescent Sealant is an easy to apply waterborne acrylic emulsion sealant containing graphite which expands

at temperatures above 135ºC sealing around various penetrations and services to prevent the passage of fire and smoke.

Application Procedure

All surfaces must be clean and sound, free from dirt, grease and other contamination. Wood, plaster and brick may be damp but

not running wet. Use mechanical abrasion to clean porous surfaces before application. For extra performance in movement

situations, a primer must be prepared by diluting 1 part sealant with 2 parts of water and mixing thoroughly. The primer is brush

applied and allowed to dry for 2 to 3 hours before applying sealant. Alternatively, a standard PVA sealer may be used on the

surface.

Prepare joint by cleaning and priming if necessary, as previously detailed. Cut nozzle to the desired angle and gun firmly into

the joint to give a good solid fill. Strike off the sealant flush with the joint sides within five minutes of application before surface

skinning occurs. A small amount of shrinkage will occur on curing. If a flush finish is required, fill the joint slightly proud of the

surface to allow for shrinkage.

Coverage

PFC Corofil HE Intumescent Sealant (310ml cartridge) will yield 0.155 linear metre per cartridge at 25mm wide and 80mm

depth. Approximate coverage rates are shown in the table below.

Limitations

The sealant is not intended for application on bituminous substrates or substrates that can exude certain oils and

plasticizers or solvents.

The sealant is not recommended for submerged joints or areas exposed to high abrasion.

The sealant is not suitable for food contact or medical applications.

Cold Smoke & Air Tight Seal

PFC Corofil Coated Panel System will provide a cold

Description

PFC Corofil Coated Panel System comprises three

elements:

PFC Corofil Coated Panel

(1200mm x 600mm x 50mm)

PFC Corofil Acoustic Intumescent Sealant

PFC Corofil Ablative Coating

PFC Corofil Coated Panels are manufactured by spraying

high density rock fibreboard with a fire rated ablative

coating. The coated panels are simply cut and friction

fitted between the services and the edges of the structure.

Plastic pipework needs to be sealed with PFC Corofil High

Expansion Intumescent Sealant or sleeved with Insulated

Fire Sleeves prior to installation of the coated panel

system.

The Acoustic Intumescent Sealant is used as an adhesive

on the edges of the panel to form a barrier with

surrounding structure. All joints in the barrier are pointed

in with Acoustic Intumescent Sealant to form a monolithic

layer. The Ablative Coating is largely used to make good

any damaged coating or for a more aesthetic finish. In

plasterboard partitions, the panel must be fitted to both

sides of the wall to fire protect the studs. The panels are

fitted by either a pattress fix or by being cut into openings.

For floor openings, we advise using PFC Corofil Firestop

Compound (see technical data sheet).

Fibre Migration

PFC Corofil Coated Panel System will not allow fibre

migration as all exposed edges of mineral fibre are

encapsulated with an ablative coating.

Colour

White matt finish. May be over painted if desired.

Specification

Install PFC Corofil Coated Panel System to provide up to

4 hours fire protection to all service penetrations passing

through fire rated walls. Installation to be fully in

accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.

shuttering to a depth of 25mm thick and is allowed to

harden. The Firestop Compound is then mixed to a

pouring grade and tops the seal up to the required

depth.

In walls, Firestop Compound is mixed into a stiff

consistency for trowelling into smaller openings. In

larger openings, Firestop Compound may be cast into

blocks which are built into walls.

Application

Standard pipe insulation will not provide an effective fire seal

as it will either shrink back, melt (glass wool) or burn (organic

foams). It has been standard practice to remove the insulation

as the pipe passes through the firestopping material. However,

the removal of the insulation can lead to loss of thermal

performance on hot water pipes and condensation forming as

the vapour barrier is penetrated on chilled water pipes.

PFC Corofil Insulated Fire Sleeves maintain the thermal

performance of metal and plastic pipes whilst providing a fire

rated seal in walls and floors.

General benefits:

Labour saving

Acoustic rating of up to 49dB

No over sleeving required

Full range of sizes

Dry system, no need for additional sealants

Fire Rating

PFC Corofil Insulated Fire Sleeves are intended for use on

copper, mild steel, PVC, uPVC, HDPE, Polybutylene and ABS

pipes. Tested in accordance with BS EN:1366-3:2009 and

BS 476:Part 20:1987, the sleeves provide up to 2 hours fire

protection. Please contact our technical sales office to confirm

suitability of use.

Description

PFC Corofil Insulated Fire Sleeves are a unique combination

of mineral fibre and graphite intumescent that provide all the

benefits of mineral wool’s thermal, noise and fire properties

with an added intumescent effect. The sleeves are supplied in

300mm lengths and can be cut down to requirement when

installing in walls and floors.

Acoustic

PFC Corofil Insulated Fire Sleeves have been tested to

provide a Weighted Sound Reduction Index (Rw) of up to

49db. The compressible nature of the material used to

manufacture the product can reduce the potential of setting up

any structural borne pipe noise.

Service Temperatures

PFC Corofil Insulated Fire Sleeves are used to firestop pipe

work operating at temperatures between 0ºC and 180ºC.

At low temperatures, care must be taken to maintain the

vapour barrier.

Compatibility

PFC Corofil Insulated Fire Sleeves are compatible with most

materials with which they are likely to come into contact in

normal building and industrial applications. Precautions should

be taken when insulating austenitic stainless steel, regardless

of insulation type.

Description

PFC Corofil Metal Case Fire Sleeves are suitable for

fire containment in plasterboard / blockwork walls and

concrete floors for up to 2 hours fire protection.

The product is a stainless steel sleeve lined with a

high expansion intumescent compound overlaid with

a fire resistant acoustic foam compression seal.

The intumescent liner and foam are water, moisture and

lubricant resistant. The intumescent liner expands when

exposed to heat, providing a fire barrier.

When used to seal plastic pipes, it will fill the void left by

the collapsing pipe. The intumescent expands up to 50

times whilst creating high pressure of a minimum of 30

bar compression strength and will close a plastic pipe

which is collapsing due to fire.

PFC Corofil Metal Case Fire Sleeves are simply clipped

around the pipe via a crimped edge. The fire resistant

foam seal at top and bottom form a cold smoke seal and

allow the pipe to be manoeuvred within the sleeve. In

floors, the bottom end of the sleeve must protrude 40mm

beneath the soffit level to enhance rapid thermal

transmission to the intumescent layer and to allow

Building Control to ensure that a seal has been installed.

Make good between the sleeve and the concrete floor

slab using PFC Corofil Firestop Compound (minimum

depth of 70mm).

F-Capped approved for up to 50W dichroic halogen

lamps.

Acoustic

Please contact our technical sales office for details.

Thermal Performance

The Loft Covers are simply placed over the light fittings to

eliminate thermal loss and condensation on roof timbers

and to allow a continuous insulation layer to be installed

without leaving gaps where downlights are installed.

Dust Tight / Particle Ingress Tested

The Loft Covers are IP6X dust tight rated.

Description

PFC Corofil Thermal Loft Covers have been designed to

meet both the new NHBC requirement for a vapour seal

and the requirement for continuous loft insulation, whilst

still maintaining an air space between the light fitting and

the insulation as stipulated by many light fitting

manufacturers.

The fitting of recessed downlights into ceilings penetrating

a loft space could reduce the thermal performance of the

insulation by 50%. This is due to the need to remove

insulation from around the downlights, resulting in large

amounts of air leakage and cold bridging. The fitting of

PFC Corofil Thermal Loft Covers allows the loft insulation

to be continued directly over the cover and downlight and

so fully reinstate the optimum performance of the loft

insulation without gaps or interruption to work as intended.

A typical recessed downlight allows the leakage of 20

cubic metres of air per hour which leads to huge heat

losses when downlights are used in multiples. The fitting

of PFC Corofil Thermal Loft Covers reduces the air

leakage down to insignificant levels and normal pressures

so significantly reduces heat loss and meets air leakage

targets.

Application

The PFC Coroflor Acoustic Flooring System is

used in conjunction with the CF Fire Protection

System and is a simple, cost effective method of

upgrading an existing or new floor to meet both

Documents B & E of the Building Regulations for

fire and sound respectively.

The standard system was originally designed for

where there was a need to retain an existing lath

and plaster and/or ornate ceilings. This still applies

however, variations to the standard system can be

specified, including where “ECO” joists are within

the specification.

The Coroflor Acoustic Flooring System and/or

variations of the standard system have been

tested on many sites throughout the UK and

(subject to correct installation) complies in full with

the current regulations of Document B for a

minimum 60 minutes fire protection for integrity

and insulation (actual 108 minutes) as well as

meeting the current regulations of Document E for

airborne and impact sound transmissions where

necessary.

In relation to part B, all documentation will be

provided for Building Control on completion of

works and relating to part E, an independent

UKAS accredited sound test can be arranged if

required. Full test report data can be supplied

(AIRO REG/5188/A).

This system is supplied and technically supported

by PFC Technical Services Ltd.

Description

For use in conjunction with the CF Fire Protection

System but additional materials are:

PFC Corofil Intumescent Silicone Putty

Application

PFC Corofil Intumescent Silicone Putty may be used to form a fire resistant seal around pipe and cable penetrations. Tested in

accordance with BS EN:1366-3, the putty provides up to 4 hours fire protection in floors and walls with metal pipes, steel

electrical trunking and cables at a depth of 75mm.

Description

PFC Corofil Intumescent Silicone Putty is a red, non-setting compound. It may be cut and moulded between metal pipes and

cable penetrations to plug holes in compartment walls and floors. PFC Corofil Intumescent Silicone Putty is particularly useful in

sealing cable bunches in trays and electrical trunking. Due to its non-setting nature it remains malleable, so it may easily be

removed and replaced to accommodate the introduction and removal of future service runs. Under fire conditions, the putty

expands to fill small gaps between services.

PFC Corofil Intumescent Firestrip Tape

Application

PFC Corofil Intumescent Firestrip Tape is a pre-formed, high performance, intumescent polyisobutylene (PIB) based sealing

tape. The product is used in applications to form a fire and air tight seal. The strip may be used to seal dry wall track heads

where they interface with construction soffits. The product is cost effective, non toxic and requires no tools to apply.

Description

PFC Corofil Intumescent Firestrip Tape should be applied to surfaces at temperatures of between +4°C and +30°C. For best

performance the surfaces should be clean, dry and grease free. The product should be unwound and lightly pressed into

position leaving the release paper in place. On forming the joint, the release paper is removed and the closing surface pushed

firmly in place, pressure applied along the length of the joint and mechanically fixed if necessary.

PFC Corofil Fire & Acoustic Switch Box Inserts

Application

PFC Corofil Fire & Acoustic Switch Box Inserts are a cost effective and simple solution for protecting electrical switch and socket

boxes when fitted in fire and acoustic rated walls. The fire resistant material lines the inside of the socket box to provide an

effective acoustic seal in plasterboard walls and prevents the spread of fire.

Description

The Switch Box Inserts are pre-formed and may be installed within seconds without assembly or adhesives. The simple

mechanical fix ensures the insert will not be damaged or removed if the socket is replaced or adjusted, providing peace of mind

for the installer. Offering significant labour and cost savings over plasterboard lining or putty pad solutions, the Socket Box

Inserts are available to suit both single and double sockets.

Tested in accordance with BS 476:Part 20 & 22:1987 for both integrity and insulation, PFC Corofil Fire & Acoustic Switch Box

Inserts provide up to 2 hours fire protection.

PFC Corofil Thermal Recessed Luminaire Covers

Application

PFC Corofil Thermal Luminaire Covers are fire rated covers designed to upgrade the fire resistance of recessed luminaire or

fluorescent module fixtures and reinstate the performance of ceilings when penetrated by recessed lights.

Description

The covers are available to suit all common 600mm x 600mm and 1200mm x 600mm fixtures. The covers are ready to install

with no assembly required and may also be retrofitted into position due to their flexible and durable design. The insulation value

of the covers also offers significant thermal and acoustic benefits to the ceiling system.

Tested in accordance with BS 476:Part 23:1987, PFC Corofil Thermal Luminaire Covers provide up to 60 minutes fire

protection.

PFC Corofil Intumescent Fan & Vent Sleeves

Application

PFC Corofil Intumescent Fan and Vent Sleeves have been developed to firestop polymeric fans and vents where they have

penetrated through fire rated plasterboard ceilings, which protect the stability and structure of timber floors.

This is a common problem in multi storey timber framed buildings, including flats, hotels, student accommodation and military

barracks where mechanical extract ventilation system systems are required for en-suite bathrooms and kitchens.

Description

PFC Corofil Intumescent Fan and Vent Sleeves are simply fitted onto the spigot of the fan or vent and friction fitted into the

plasterboard ceiling. The intumescent material expands in a fire situation to maintain the fire rating of the ceiling system.

This simple and cost effective solution can replace the more costly fire dampers or the labour intensive boarding out of

ventilation ducting.

Tested in accordance with BS 476:Part 20:1987, PFC Corofil Intumescent Fan and Vent Sleeves are designed to maintain the

fire rating of both 30 minute and 60 minute floor / ceiling systems when penetrated by ceiling fans or vents.

PFC Corofil Intumescent Cable Basket Sleeves

Application

PFC Corofil Intumescent Cable Basket Sleeves are designed to provide a fire and acoustic seal to cable baskets or trays when

penetrating through fire rated and acoustic walls.

Description

The Cable Basket Sleeves are ready to install, providing a quick and easy solution without the need for foams, sealants or

pillows. The sleeves provide an effective fire seal around both the cables and cable tray or basket. The Cable Basket Sleeve is

simply fitted around the cable basket or tray and is located centrally within the wall. This can be made good with PFC Corofil

Acoustic Intumescent Sealant (for gaps up to 10mm wide), plasterboard, mortar or PFC Corofil Firestop Compound and PFC

Corofil Coated Panels. The Cable Basket Sleeves are available for all common basket or tray sizes from 50mm up to 450mm

and have been fire tested both with and without cables.

Tested in accordance with BS 476:Part 20:1987, PFC Corofil Intumescent Cable Basket Sleeves provide up to 2 hours fire

protection.
