Solutions for all hardware
Manufactured by Vanquish, FlexiFire is a graphite-based intumescent material that offers high levels of expansion and insulation, preventing heat transfer on rebated hardware.
As the material reaches its activation temperature of 180°, the intercalated graphite particles expand many times their original volume.
Flexible and fully customisable FlexiFire is suitable for use on all types of fire rated hardware.
