Firemac FM Fire Duct Accessories
Firemac FM Fire Ducts are safety critical systems, and it is imperative that the fabrication of fire resistant ductwork exactly mirrors the design and build of tested systems to give confidence in its fire performance. Until recently, test and certification bodies permitted the use of a variety of fire rated sealants for use in duct systems. However, there is a new focus on their importance, and the desirability that the same sealants and accessories used in testing are also used in commercial fabrication and installation.
All Firemac accessories have been fully fire tested, and are prescribed for the fabrication and installation of Firemac FM Fire Ducts.

Firemac FM Butyl Gasket Tape has a multitude of applications where joints need to be air- and water-tight, and is preferable to other methods of sealing duct flanges due to its ease of use and solvent-free formulation.
Firemac FM Butyl Gasket Tape is cost effective and non-toxic, and application is tool-free.
Firemac FM Access Panels
Ductworkers can fabricate access panels in accordance with the Firemac Technical Manual. Firemac's pre-fabricated, fire resisting access panels are increasingly popular. They are manufactured to the required sizes and can be delivered with minimal lead times, saving considerable time for the duct manufacturer. All access panels are supplied with a safety retaining chain, as standard.
