BLAZE-SHIELD® HP
CAFCO® BLAZE-SHIELD® HP is a cement based, medium
density Spray-Applied Fire Resistive Material (SFRM) designed
to provide protection for the structural steel in commercial
high-rise construction. BLAZE-SHIELD HP's durable surface
and cement based formula enable it to withstand indirect weather
exposure conditions and limited physical abuse, thus allowing
for application in parking garages, mechanical rooms, elevator
shafts, and swimming pool areas. With a simple one-step spplication
process, BLAZE-SHIELD HP is able to provide complete passive
fire protection for most construction conditions at reduced
costs and in less time.
ACOUSTICAL PROPERTIES As an efficient sound-absorbing material,
BLAZE-SHIELD HP adds value to the fire protection application
in areas where high-noise levels are anticipated. Typical
acoustical performance is as follows:
