THERM-A-SEAL has been developed primarily for sealing the air-gap between the edges of the leaves and the frames, or between the separate leaves and the frames, of both timber and steel fire- resisting door assemblies in the event of a fire.
In a fire situation, an intumescent foam is produced which is voluminous and also capable of exerting a pressure high enough to restrain the edges adjacent to the seal. THERM-A-SEAL is therefore ideally suited to applications where some applied restraint combined with the normal gap-filling properties of intumescent materials is needed. Unlatched door leaves, or double swing assemblies are most likely to benefit from such characteristics across the head, although the seal is equally well suited to conventional latched single-leaf doors.
THERM-A-SEAL is made from a unique chemical formulation based on expandable graphite. The core material
THERM-A-FLEX is capable of large expansion combined with significant pressure forming an excellent seal against the ingress of fire.
Unlike many other types of intumescent material, THERM-A-SEAL is not affected by moisture and therefore does not require any further protection; it is also unaffected by carbon dioxide.
