DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION AND USE

Use Intumescent Timber paint for bare or previously painted timber and timber based board, for surfaces where the surface spread of flame, or fire propagation and penetration need to be controlled.

INTUMESCENT FIRE PROTECTION

When exposed to a fire Intumescent Timber Paint expands to create a fire resilient barrier, insulating and protecting the timber surfaces from heat and the oxygen required for fire.

SAFE MINIMUM THICKNESS OF WOOD FOR 30 Minute Standard (does not apply to Class 1 and Class O)

Softwoods need to be at least 16mm thick and hardwoods 12mm thick, in order to withstand charring (without collapse) of 10mm (softwoods) or 6mm (hardwoods). Hardwoods, like Oak, burn slower than Softwoods, like Pine. These charring allowances leave 6mm of wood in reserve, to provide more time for escape, after the paint systems have expired. If the wood is less than these thicknesses it can be supplemented with additional panelling - we will be pleased to Quote for precision panels made to measure for your project.

TO SPECIFY

Prepare the surfaces and apply Intumescent Timber Paint to Class 1 and Class 0, or 30 or 60 Minutes.

Then, if not to be covered over, apply one or two coats of Flame Paint (in matt, gloss, eggshell, vinyl silk or metallic finish) according to Manufacturer's instructions.

FIRE TESTING

Tested to BS476 Part 7; Class 1 Surface Spread of Flame.

BS476 Part 6; Fire propagation.

Designated Class 0 in accordance with U.K. Building Regulations.

FIRE CERTIFICATION

We will issue a Certificate of Supply upon request for each project for Insurance, Fire and Building Control Authority and Client Records.

FINISH AND COLOUR RANGE

Intumescent Timber Paint can be overcoated with the following decorative finishes:

Flame Paint - top coatings:

Gloss, Eggshell, Vinyl Silk, Acrylic Eggshell - all BS and RAL Colours

Anti-graffiti system - most BS4800 colours.

Metallic Finishes - steel, gunmetal, rust, silver, gold.

COVERAGE

Class 1 and Class 0: Apply 2 coats of Intumescent Timber Paint at 7m sq. per litre per coat.

APPLICATION

Pressure pot – Devilbiss J.G.A 502 gun, 402-FF needle, 705 aircap, FF nozzle.

DRYING TIMES

Allow a minimum of 4 hours between Intumescent Base coats, 10 hours before applying a Flame Paint finish coat to the last base coat, 4 hours between water based Flame paint finish coats and 12 hours between Gloss coats of Flame Paint finish. Intumescent paints will not withstand high humidity or rainwater - they must be protected with a fully dried top coat before exposure to the elements.

QUALITY ASSURANCE

Intumescent Timber Paint is manufactured under the principles of BS 5750/ISO 9000

COMPOSITION

Intumescent compounds. Intumescent paint resin binders. High opacity pigments.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & SAFETY

Intumescent and Flame Timber Paints are made within a low odour, water-based system, thus making them user and environmentally friendly.


Click to Home Page

'Fire Paint' is a general term rather misleadingly used to cover both Fire Resistant Paint, used as a top coat to protect the Intumescent Paint beneath and Intumescent Paint, which is relatively soft. Class O and Class 1 are Classifications used regarding fire action on the surface of the paint, whereas 30 Minutes and 60 Minutes describe the period of protection given by the underlying Intumescent layers of Intumescent Paint or Intumescent Varnish against fire penetration.

We can provide an Intumescent Paint price based on the thickness of the wood or steel to be protected, and a separate price for the Flame Paint, which is a Fire Rated paint used as a top coat, which acts as a retardent fire layer, producing an inert gas to protect itself.
