Protecta Service Coat FR-1 (3 Litre) is a water-based intumescent coating designed to enhance the fire resistance of combustible cables in service installations. Applied in just one coat, this coating significantly improves the insulation and integrity of cable penetrations, helping prevent fire spread via electrical services.
Formulated for safety and durability, it is non-toxic, halogen-free, and VOC-free, making it ideal for enclosed environments. It can also be used alongside Protecta FR Board to achieve higher fire classifications for complex service penetrations.
