SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealant

SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealant is a one-part, neutral-curing silicone


sealant exhibiting superior performance in applications where sealing
openings in walls and floors are needed to control the spread of fire, smoke,
toxic gasses, and water during fire conditions.
SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealant reacts with atmospheric moisture
to form a high-strength, durable seal that will adhere to most building
substrates without the use of primers. SpecSeal® products do not contain
asbestos or PCBs.
BASIC USES: SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealant is designed for use in
firestop systems for through penetrations and joints. This product excels in
applications where greater water resistance is required. Systems have been
tested for Class 1 W Ratings per UL1479.
SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealant is available in non-sag (SIL300) and
self-leveling (SIL300SL) grades and may also be used to seal vertical and
horizontal joints between metals, masonry, concrete and other common
construction materials. SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealant is specially
designed for use in static or dynamic joints. The low modulus characteristic
minimizes strain on the substrate surface and the elastomeric quality allows
excellent recovery from extension and compression cycling.

SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealants are the basis for systems that meet the exacting Low emitting materials credit. See general
criteria of ASTM E814 (UL 1479), ASTM E1966 (UL 2079), ASTM E1399, as well as the time- LEED letter for additional applicable credits.
temperature requirements of ASTM E119 (UL 263). Firestop systems for
both joint systems and through-penetration firestops have been tested with
ratings up to 4 hours. See UL Systems for more specific information.
Additionally, SpecSeal® SIL Silicone Firestop Sealant meets ASTM C920,
“Standard Specification for Elastomeric Joint Sealants”. For SIL300, the
product is listed as Type S, Grade NS, Class 50, Use A, G, M, O. For SIL300SL, the product is listed as Type S, Grade P, Class 25, Use A, G, M, O.
Finally, SIL300 (non-sag) has been evaluated by NSF Laboratories for inclusion in Lubrizol’s FGG/BM/CZ CPVC System Compatible program.

Maintenance
Inspection: Installations should be inspected periodically for subsequent damage. Any damage should be repaired using SpecSeal® products per the
original approved design. Cut away damaged material and reapply sealant as required. NOTE: New penetrants of a different nature than the original
design may require a totally new firestop design or extensive modifications to the existing design. Reseal all openings as per the requirements of the
modified design.
