The number of services for mechanical contractors continues to grow in todays modern built environment. Correctly fire stopping service penetrations through fire rated walls and floors is and continues to be a challenge. The team at Progressive Materials are industry experts on fire stopping of services and fire protection of ducts for mechanical service contractors. Whether its fire stopping of services, or fire protection to duct work we have a system for you.

Metal Pipes

Choose the right fire protection for metal pipes

Metal pipes as the pass through fire walls and floors require passive protection to reinstate the FRL of the wall or floor in which it passes.

Depending on if the pipe is lagged or not, will determine the type of protection required for the pipe. Black nitrate lagging can be protected with PROMASEAL® FlexiWrap or Promat Retrofit Fire Collars. Metal pipes not protected with condensation or thermal lagging can be protected with PROMASEAL® SupaWrap or PROMASEAL® SupaWrap Pipe Sleeves. Before installing any of these products please consult Progressive Materials, as approvals vary for various wall and floor types.

Fire Collars for Services

Can i use fire collars to treat my services?

Yes - both cast in and retrofit fire collar options are available.

The fire protection of mechanical services with Promat retrofit and cast in fire collars is an option for your project.   There are limitations on the type, size and number of services that can be protected with a collar, so please contact Progressive Materials prior to any installation of a fire collar with a mechanical service.    One of Promat’s unique approvals allows for lagged copper pipes to be combined in the same fire collar with small TPS electrical cables and uPVC conduits.  Please contact Progressive Materials prior to any installations
