Protecta FR Adhesive – Fire Rated Adhesive

General Product Details

Protecta® FR Adhesive contains a water based inorganic polymer and filler, and is designed to withstand temperatures greater than 1,200 °C.
It is supplied as a ready to use thixotropic paste which exhibits excellent early grab and rapid bond strength.
After curing the product forms a cement with a permanent bond giving excellent adhesion in service.
Protecta® FR Adhesive can be used both as an adhesive and as a filler, with multiple usages where bonding or sealing very hot surfaces is
required, or sustaining a seal or a bond within a fire situation without detachment.
