The product ships as a dry powder that mixes with potable water at variable ratios depending on the application method. When mixed and installed correctly, it resists the spread of fire, smoke, and noxious gases through wall and floor penetrations. It provides up to 3 hours of fire protection in tested and listed systems. The lightweight, off-white formulation with dark flecks is suitable for both self-leveling horizontal pours and trowel-applied vertical installations. Sold in a 5-gallon pail weighing 29.6 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis mortar is used in through-penetration firestop systems where cables, conduit, pipe, or other services pass through rated wall and floor assemblies. It applies to both new construction and retrofit projects requiring code-compliant fire barrier restoration. The variable mix ratio allows a single product to serve multiple installation scenarios: self-leveling for horizontal decks and trowelable consistency for vertical walls or overhead applications. Contractors, firestop specialty installers, and licensed trades working under fire-rated assembly requirements commonly specify this product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUp to 3-hour fire protection in tested and listed firestop systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable mix ratio: 1 part water to 2 parts powder for self-leveling; 1 part water to 3 parts powder for trowelable mortar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight cementitious formula mixes with potable water on site\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-white finish with dark flecks; suitable for visible installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCost-effective alternative to pre-mixed firestop mortars for large-volume applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-gallon pail format supports bulk job-site use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in tested and listed through-penetration firestop systems involving cables, conduit, pipe, and similar building services penetrating fire-rated wall and floor assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed in accordance with the specific tested and listed system details and applicable building codes, including IBC fire-rated assembly requirements.
