Regulations:

Building Regulations impose limitations on all pipes and ducts passing through fire compartment walls and floors. QRS CE Marked Intumescent Fire Sleeves allow plastic ducts to meet the requirements of the Building Regulations. QRS Fire Sleeves have been tested according to BSEN 1366-3: 2009 where various plastic duct sizes have met insulation and integrity criteria for this standard for up to 2 hours.

Composition:

QRS CE Marked Intumescent Fire Sleeves consist of a flexible galvanised steel shell containing graphite based intumescent material.

Durability:

Tested to Type X durability which means the QRS CE Marked Intumescent Fire Sleeves can be installed in conditions exposed to weathering. QRS Fire Sleeves are expected to last the lifetime of the building.
