FIREBARRIER INTUMESCENT SEALANT

1. PRODUCT NAME
A/D FIREBARRIER Intumescent
Sealant.
2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Basic Use: A/D FIREBARRIER
Intumescent Sealant is a single
component intumescent acrylic
water based sealant intended for
use as a firestop system
component.
Composition and Materials:
A/D FIREBARRIER Intumescent
Sealant forms a durable, flexible,
watertight bond with most
construction materials. It is applied
independently for caulk and walk
systems or over mineral wool or
backer rod (refer to test design
details) to seal the openings where
building services such as pipes and
cables penetrate fire rated
assemblies. May be applied by
caulking gun or trowel. Clean up is
with water.
A/D FIREBARRIER Intumescent
Sealant contains water and is best if
protected from freezing.
Packaging: See table 2. Refer to
the A/D FIREBARRIER estimating
guide for complete volume and
coverage information.
Color: Red
Application Limitations:
A/D FIREBARRIER Intumescent
Sealant is intended for use at
interior locations in buildings only.
Protect from direct contact with
water until cured. Curing time will
vary with temperature and humidity.
Do not use where abrasion or
physical abuse is anticipated.
Installation in confined or air-free
spaces may inhibit cure.
Do not apply to surfaces with
special protective or cosmetic
coatings without prior consul-
tation with the manufacturer and
first testing adhesion.
A/D FIREBARRIER Intumescent
Sealant has been tested in
numerous firestop configurations.
For optimum economy and
performance, apply to a
thickness equal to or slightly
greater than the minimum test
design thickness. Excessive
depth to width ratios may cause
sealant failure DO NOT apply
excessive thickness. As a
guideline, A/D Fire Protection
Systems recommends the
minimum tested system thick-
nesses not be exceeded by more
than 25%.
3. TECHNICAL DATA
Physical Properties:
Refer to Table 1.
Standards: A/D FIREBARRIER
Intumescent Sealant has been
tested in accordance with the
following: ANSI/UL1479, ASTM
E814 and CAN4/ULC-S115M.
Systems certified for use in Canada
are available under the cUL mark.
FGG/BM/CZ System Compatible
indicates that this product has been
tested, and is monitored on an
ongoing basis, to assure its
chemical compatibility with
FlowGuard Gold, BlazeMaster
and Corzan pipe and fittings.
FGG/BM/CZ, FlowGuard Gold,
BlazeMaster, and Corzan are
licensed trademarks of the Lubrizol
Corporation.
Contact A/D Fire Protection
Systems for a current list of fire
rated systems.
4. INSTALLATION
Clean all openings to be firestopped
by removal of foreign matter and
contaminants such as oil, dust,
grease, frost, water, surface dirt, old
sealants glazing compound,
protective coatings, etc. Refer to fire
test design / system.
Priming: A/D FIREBARRIER
Intumescent Sealant does not
require any priming. In view of the
unpredictability of surface
characteristics, it is recommended
that a test sample of sealant be
applied on the surface to test
adhesion.
Masking: Areas adjacent to
openings to be firestopped can be
masked to assure a neat
appearance. The masking tape
should not be allowed to touch the
clean surfaces to which the caulk is
to adhere. Remove masking tape
immediately.
Applications: For caulk and walk
systems, simply apply the product
where required and let cure.
Where backer material (mineral
wool, backer rod, etc.) is required by
fire test design or system, install
backer material as specified.
Surfaces of backer material to
receive caulk should be recessed in
the opening to a depth equal to the
required thickness of sealant.

4. INSTALLATION
Clean all openings to be
firestopped by removal of foreign
matter and contaminants such as
oil, dust, grease, frost, water,
surface dirt, old sealants glazing
compound, protective coatings,
etc.
Priming: A/D FIREBARRIER
Silicone generally does not
require priming. In view of the
unpredictability of surface
characteristics, it is recommended
that a test sample of sealant be
applied on the surface to test
adhesion.
Masking: Areas adjacent to
openings to be firestopped can be
masked to assure a neat
appearance. The masking tape
should not be allowed to touch
the clean surfaces to which the
silicone is to adhere. Remove
masking tape immediately.
A/D FIREBARRIER Mineral Wool
is the required backup material in
most systems. The material
allows a controlled depth of
sealant to be applied for
maximum economy.
Install backup material as
specified. Surfaces of mineral
wool to receive sealant should be
recessed in the opening to a
depth equal to the required thick-
ness of sealant. Apply A/D
FIREBARRIER Silicone in a
continuous operation to fill and
seal the opening. Tool the
sealant to spread it against the
backup material and the opening
surfaces.
Individual penetrations through
drywall may not require a backing
material for the silicone. Simply
fill the annular space to the
required depth and form a smooth
bead or crown at the surfaces.
Excess sealant should be dry-
wiped from glass, metal and
plastic surfaces while still
uncured, followed with a
commercial solvent such as xylol,
toluol, or methyl ethyl ketone.
CURED SEALANT IS USUALLY
VERY DIFFICULT TO REMOVE
WITHOUT ALTERING OR
DAMAGING THE SURFACE TO
WHICH THE SEALANT HAS
BEEN MISAPPLIED.
Precaution: On direct contact,
uncured sealant may irritate eyes.
Flush with water and call a
physician. Avoid prolonged
contact with skin. Keep out of
reach of children.
To safely use this product, read
and abide by Material Safety Data
Sheet (MSDS). Provide adequate
ventilaion.
Shelf Life: When stored in
original and unopened container
at or below 32C (90F), A/D
FIREBARRIER Silicone has a
shelf life of one year from date of
manufacture.

Seal and Seal NS are available in 5
US gallon (18.9 L) pails. Theoretical
coverage per pail is 40 ft
2
(3.8 m
2
) at
an applied wet film thickness of 0.2
in. (5 mm) and approximately 64 ft
2

(5.7 m
2
) at 1/8-in. (3 mm) wet
thickness. Seal NS is also available
in 10.3 fl. oz. (304mL) and 28.7 fl.
oz. (850 mL) tubes.
Application Limitations:
Do not install when ambient
temperature or temperature of
substrate is below 40F (5C).
Protect from freezing and water
until sealant is fully cured.
Do not install to surfaces with
special protective or cosmetic
coatings without prior consul-
tation with manufacturer and
first testing adhesion.
Do not install where direct
contact with food will occur.
Do not install where abrasion or
physical abuse is anticipated.
Seal is intended for horizontal
applications only. Seal NS can
be used for vertical and
horizontal applications.
Seal and Seal NS have been
tested in numerous firestop joint
and through-penetration firestop
systems. For best economy and
performance the product should
be applied to a thickness equal
to or slightly greater than the
minimum test design thickness.
Excessive depth to width ratios
may cause sealant failure do
not apply excessive thick-
ness. As a guideline, we
recommend that the minimum
test system thicknesses not be
exceeded by more than 25%.
Standards: A/D FIREBARRIER
Seal and Seal NS have been fire
tested in accordance with the
following: ULC-S115-M, Standard
Method of Fire Tests of Firestop
Systems, ASTM E814-83 and
ANSI/UL 1479, Standard Method of
Fire Tests of Through - Penetration
Fire Stops and ANSI/UL 2079,

4. INSTALLATION
Clean all openings to be firestopped
by removal of foreign matter and
contaminants such as oil, dust,
grease, frost, water, surface dirt, old
sealants, glazing compounds,
protective coatings etc.
Cleaning of all surfaces should be
done on the same day in which the
sealant is applied.
Priming: A/D FIREBARRIER Seal
and Seal NS generally do not
require priming. In view of the
unpredictability of surface charac-
teristics, it is recommended that a
test sample of sealant be applied on
the surface to test adhesion.
Masking: Areas adjacent to
openings to be firestopped can be
masked to assure a neat
appearance. The masking tape
should not be allowed to touch the
clean surface to which the seal is to
adhere. Remove masking tape
immediately.
A/D FIREBARRIER Mineral Wool is
the required backup material for
firestops.
Install backup materials as
specified.
A/D FIREBARRIER Seal is
intended only for horizontal
applications. Check fire test design
for required thickness - usually 0.2
in. (5 mm) wet. Pour or pump Seal
in a continuous operation to fill and
seal the opening. A light pass with
a trowel over the surface of the seal
will ensure a smooth surface.
A/D FIREBARRIER Seal NS is non-
slumping and may be sprayed or
trowelled for vertical and / or
horizontal applications. For spray
applications refer to Table 2. Check
fire test design for required
minimum wet film thickness -
usually 0.2 in. (5 mm) or 1/8 in. (3.2
mm).
Excess sealant should be wiped
from glass, metal and plastic
surfaces while uncured. Clean up is
with water.
CURED SEALANT IS USUALLY
VERY DIFFICULT TO REMOVE
WITHOUT ALTERING OR DAM-
AGING THE SURFACE TO WHICH
THE SEALANT HAS BEEN
APPLIED.
Precaution: May cause irritation.
May be harmful if swallowed. Avoid
getting in eyes. Wash hands
thoroughly after handling. Use only
as directed.
Keep out of reach of children.
To safely use this product, read and
abide by Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS).
Shelf Life: When stored at or below
80F (27C) and above 40F (5C),
A/D FIREBARRIER Seal and Seal
NS have a shelf life of one year
from date of manufacture.
Note: Protect from freezing.
5. AVAILABILITY AND COST
Availability: A/D sales offices and
technical representatives are
located throughout North America.

6. MAINTENANCE
No maintenance should be required.
If seal becomes damaged, replace
damaged portion. Clean surfaces in
damaged area and repair with fresh
A/D FIRE-BARRIER Seal or Seal
NS. Damage by other trades
should be patched at the expense of
trade causing damage.
