FB65NH-5 Fire Stop Product

ALVA-TECH FB65NH-5 Fire Barrier Material is a graphite intumescent elastomer formulated to protect surfaces and openings in three ways:

  1. On exposure to flame and heat, the material absorbs heat and begins to expand. At 350ºF (177ºC) expansion begins and at 450ºF (232ºC) expansion is substantial.
  2. The material forms an insulating barrier to retard the spread of flame and control temperature increase.
  3. The material forms a refractory char as the temperature continues to rise, providing additional protection.
