The ARC Fire Stop Strip is specifically designed to prevent the passage of smoke and flames through narrow voids in construction, offering critical protection in these areas:

Fire Integrity: The Fire Stop Strip provides up to four hours of fire integrity when installed between masonry or concrete, making it a reliable solution for fire safety. This level of protection helps to contain fire and smoke within designated areas, preventing them from spreading through narrow gaps and voids in the construction.

Smoke and Flame Prevention: Narrow voids in construction, such as gaps between masonry or concrete elements, can be vulnerable points where smoke and flames can easily pass through. The ARC Fire Stop Strip is designed to seal these gaps, creating a barrier that effectively blocks the movement of smoke and flames, thereby enhancing the overall fire resistance of the building.

Versatile Application: The strip is suitable for use in a variety of narrow voids within masonry and concrete structures, making it a versatile solution for different construction scenarios. Its adaptability allows it to be used in various types of buildings where narrow voids need to be protected from fire hazards.

Ease of Installation: The ARC Fire Stop Strip is designed for easy installation within narrow gaps, ensuring a secure and effective seal without requiring extensive modifications. This simplifies the process of enhancing fire safety during construction.

What is the ARC Fire Stop Strip?

The ARC Fire Stop Strip is a versatile, non-combustible insulation product designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through gaps and cavities in walls, floors, and ceilings. It is typically used to seal linear gaps and joints in fire-rated structures.

How is the ARC Fire Stop Strip installed?

The ARC Fire Stop Strip is usually friction-fitted into gaps or joints in fire-rated walls, floors, and ceilings. It can be easily cut to size on-site and installed without the need for additional fixings, providing a secure and effective fire seal.

What are the key benefits of using the ARC Fire Stop Strip?

The ARC Fire Stop Strip offers excellent fire resistance, helping to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through structural gaps and joints. Additionally, it provides good acoustic insulation, reducing noise transmission, and contributes to the building's overall thermal efficiency.

How does the ARC Fire Stop Strip contribute to fire safety?

The ARC Fire Stop Strip acts as a barrier to fire and smoke, sealing gaps and joints in fire-rated structures and helping to maintain the integrity of fire compartments within a building.
