Pipe wraps are designed to be installed in solid construction walls and floors and consist of a layer(s) of intumescent sealed in a polyethylene sleeve. The sleeve features a strip of double sided tape to enable easy installation.
When a fire occurs the intumescent seal is activated and expands into the penetration cavity as the burning plastic pipe melts. When the intumescent seal expands it forms a fire resistant plug in the penetration, preventing the spread of fire.
The pipe wrap is designed to have the ends of intumescent material meet around the circumference of the pipe.
No overlap will exist, allowing pipe to be centrally located within a core hole. For pipe sizes up to 100mm, only one layer of intumescent material is required, ensuring core holes can be kept to a minimum size. Allproof pipe wraps have been tested on a variety of plastic pipes and are available in stock sizes from 40-150mm.
