Description

FIRESHIELD AC is specially manufactured to form an acoustic and fire rated intumescent barrier in construction applications. When subjected to heat Bond It FIRESHIELD AC swells (intumesces) to provide an inert barrier to smoke and flame. The fire resistance achievable with Bond It FIRESHIELD AC depends upon the joint design, depth of sealant and substrates being sealed. See detail overleaf.

It is non-slumping and rapid skinning. It can also be overpainted within 1 hour.
