Description
FlexiFire HP is an extruded flexible PVC compound containing
intercalated graphite. Upon heating it creates an intumescent
thermal barrier, ideal for the use in hardware protection.
The material is flexible for ease of application enabling it to
mold to the shape of the hardware. FlexiFire HP is dark
grey/ black in colour.
Application
All ironmongery installed on a fire door must be fitted without
compromising the integrity of the complete fire door
assembly. FlexiFire HP is an ultra-thin, high-performance
intumescent that offers high levels of expansion and
insulation. Flexifire HP has been designed for the following
applications:
• Hinge pads
• Door viewers
• Graphite only seals
Properties
• FlexiFire HP will expand up to 20 times its original volume
• When heated to approximately 180°C graphite located at
the surface begins to exfoliate increasing progressively
as the temperature increases.
• 0.8mm FlexiFire is suitable for 30 & 60 minute
timber applications
• Excellent temperature insulation before and after exfoliation
• Safe to handle and easy to use (no PPE required)
• Completely non-toxic, non-fibrous and dust free
• Self extinguishing binder
• Totally inert
• Unaffected by moisture, humidity, atmospheric pollution
and other common industrial and household chemical
substances.
Thickness
Manufactured in various thicknesses to meet customer
requirements:
• 0.8mm (+0.1/-0.1mm)
• 1.0mm (+0.1/-0.1mm)
• 2.0mm (+0.1/-0.1mm)
Testing
FlexiFire HP has been extensively tested to the latest British
and European standards as follows:
• BS476 part 22: 1987 - 30 and 60 minute rating
• BSEN 1634-1: 2014 - 30, 60, 90 & 120 minute rating
Validation Testing
Every batch of FlexiFire HP manufactured undergoes rigorous
on-site validation testing to ensure it meets the minimum
requirements as described below.
Thickness Testing
All manufactured batches of FlexiFire HP are measured
for thickness using a calibrated vernier.
The reading must not exceed the following tolerances:
• 0.8mm (+0.1/-0.1mm)
• 1.0mm (+0.1/-0.1mm)
• 2.0mm (+0.1/-0.1mm)
Expansion Testing
Two samples of FlexiFire HP will be taken from every batch
produced, enabling both the activation point and expansion
ratio to be measured. The tolerances of the test are set out
below:
Activation Temperature
180° (+/-10°)
Expansion Ratio
>6x Volume
