PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ISOLATEK Type 400 AC is a gypsum based, wet mix, medium density Spray-Applied Fire Resistive Material (SFRM) designed to be used with the ISOLATEK QWIK-SET ® system. ISOLATEK Type 400 AC provides fire protection for structural steel in commercial and high rise construction to interior conditioned areas which may be subjected to higher levels of abuse such as mechanical and electrical rooms or elevator shafts. ISOLATEK Type 400 AC offers enhanced strength and durability and meets the current IBC high rise bond strength requirement of ≥ 430 psf and 1,000 psf.
In addition to fire resistance, ISOLATEK Type 400 AC also provides thermal benefits. As a thermal insulator, it is effective in reducing heat loss, particularly when applied to the underside of a roof deck. The R-value added by ISOLATEK Type 400 AC may also allow a reduction in roof insulation.
Combining its fire resistive ratings, thermal insulating properties, and application efficiencies, ISOLATEK Type 400 AC is the most innovative, wet mix, medium density SFRM on the market today.
PRODUCT ADVANTAGES
