When insulating general building applications, ROCKWOOL stone wool slabs provide inherent thermal, acoustic and fire performance in any given application. The Ablative Liquid is used in conjunction with the Ablative Coated batt to enhance fire performance. It can also be used in additional fire stopping applications such as linear and trapezoidal applications to provide an effective seal to inhibit the passage of smoke.
This water-based liquid can be used to ensure the Ablative Coated batt is sealed and to reinstate coating which may have been damaged during installation. Supplied in white as standard with other colours available subject to minimum order quantities. Whilst adding greater fire protection and an aesthetic finish, ROCKWOOL Ablative Liquid adds to the performance of the stone wool slabs. In case of a fire, the ablative coatings releases water vapour which cools the surface and in conjunction with the stone wool slab assists to prevent the passage of fire, heat and smoke. ROCKWOOL Ablative Liquid is available separately from ROCKWOOL stone wool slabs for greater accessibility to enable site repairs to damaged ablative coated batts and other flexible usage. This product is also easy to use and can be sprayed or brushed to apply.
Aesthetics – the ablative coating in conjunction with stone wool offers a durable aesthetic finish
Durable – when applied in accordance with ROCKWOOL guidelines, this product can offer an assumed working life of 25 years
Shielding your space from unwanted noises – by creating an air seal barrier, the coating helps to reduce acoustic transfer
Maintenance – Ablative Liquid requires no ancillaries, which makes it a cost-effective solution to fire protection. As with any fire stopping/protection application, they should be checked regularly as part of the standard routine maintenance program
Tested to BS 476: Part 20 and BS EN 1366-3:2009 as a component part of penetration sealing systems.
