Installation Instructions

C 300 P Intumescent Pillows will give up to a 4 hour fire rating in floors and walls when sealing around metal pipes, cable trays, cable bunches and trunking. Trunking can also be sealed internally.

Installation in Walls

  1. Push the first C300 P Intumescent Pillow into the hole to be filled, so that the longest dimension (300mm long) spans across the wall.
  2. For electrical trunking, remove the lid and install a pillow inside so it aligns with the depth of the wall. Replace the lid on the electrical trunking.
  3. Pack the hole tightly with more C300 P Intumescent Pillows until it is full.

Installation in Walls

  1. Make a basket using galvanised steel mesh (50 x 50 squares x 2.5mm wire diameter) to sit into the hole in the floor slab. There should be a minimum 50mm overlap onto the surrounding floor slab or wall. (See diagram in technical data-sheet). Mechanically fix to top of floor slab or wall.
  2. Lay C300 P Intumescent Pillows standing on end into the wire basket. Pack the pillows tightly into the basket around the penetrating services.
  3. For electrical trunking, remove the lid and install a pillow inside so that it aligns with the depth of the floor. Replace the lid on the electrical trunking.
  4. Lay a sheet of the galvanised steel mesh over the basket and tie together using steel wire.
