At the core of the Allproof passive fire protection product range is the
advanced intumescent technology. This enables Allproof to offer products with
performance and design advantages for engineers and installers of passive fire
protection products. Allproof’s intumescent material expands when exposed
to heat and as its volume increases with significant expansion pressure, it
produces a stable char. The intumescent char formed is a poor conductor of
heat, retarding heat transfer and retaining the integrity and insulation of service
penetrations through otherwise fire-resistance rated walls or floors.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Ensure substrate around pipe is flat and free from obstructions.
2. Open pipe collar and position around pipe.
3. Slide tab through slot in pipe collar and fold back 180° to secure.
4. Secure pipe collar by using suitable fixings as per testing. Do not use
fixings which rely on plastic or nylon components for grip.
5. Install only from underside on floor penetrations. Install pipe collar on both
sides for wall penetrations.
6. Allproof recommends any thermal or acoustic lagging maintains a 50mm
separation to the fire collar.
