Alkaline Earth Silicate. Made exclusively from low bio-persistent alkaline earth silicate (AES) fibres, refractory fillers and selected binders, this board is recommended for fire protection of structural elements where high strength and good machinable properties are required. FireMaster® 550 board is available in large panel sizes and has good screw holding strength making it ideal for the construction of walls, ceilings and partition systems. FireMaster® 550 board has advantages of lower weight and lower thermal conductivity than calcium silicate boards together with the benefit of water repellence. In addition, ireMaster® 550 board has low dust emission during cutting operations. Applications: - Structural steel fire protection (FireMaster® 550 board)
- Fire damper systems insulation (FireMaster® 550 board)
- Core material for fire rated decorative veneered panel systems
- Ducting system
