FlameOFF - intumescent coatings provide passive fire protection for design professionalsFlameOFF Coatings, Inc. manufactures intumescent coatings that are IBC/NFPA Code Compliant for ASTM E-119 fire endurance ratings that require 1 or 2 hour fire protection while allowing a decorative look to be achieved.

FlameOff – intumescent coating advantages:

• Water-based intumescent coating with low VOC;

• Can be finished with a wide selection of topcoat colors;

• Provides a smooth architectural finish; and

• Provides up to 2-hour fire resistance ratings in accordance withUL 263 (ASTM E119), CAN / ULC-S101 and ISO 834.

FlameOFF - intumescent coatings provide the applicator an easier installation of the intumescent coatingFlameOFF–FCI intumescent coatings provide the installer an easier application of the intumescent coating and offer design professionals many benefits. Passive fire protection can be achieved on many different substrates. Our intumescent coatings are thin-filmed and are not like the traditional bulky and chalky coatings. This allows the design professionals to use intumescent coatings in areas that traditional fire proofing methods were once used.

Intumescent coating benefitsFlameOFF Coatings, Inc. has engineered all our intumescent coatings to offer a application process that is less complicated than other intumescent coatings on the market. FlameOFF Coatings, Inc. offers an in-house/web-based certification program to insure that each and every fire proofing applicator has the product knowledge they need to install a fire protective intumescent coating that meets our requirements.

Intumescent coatings that offer integrity in application and design

FlameOFF Coatings, Inc. has a team of experienced intumescent coating professionals. We can assist in installation, technical, or the design phase of the project. FlameOFF Coatings, Inc. offers on-site support during the intumescent coating application; we also offer design support during the project design stage.

FlameOFF intumescent coatings that are tested to ASTM E119 - full scaleOur intumescent coatings are tested to full scale. The ASTM E-119 test method requires full scale testing to be achieved in order to classify a product as ASTM E-119 rated. IBC/NFPA Code require a product to be in a “Listed” directory by an IAS accredited lab that is certified to perfom ASTM E-119 fire testing for full scale structural members.

Submittal and Guide Specification Structural Steel

FlameOFF – is a water-based intumescent coating designed for fire protection of structural steel for interior applications requiring ASTM E -119 testing for full scale/load bearing applications.

FlameOFF FCI – is a decorative thin film intumescent coating that consists of a vinyl acetate resin. It can be top coated to provide the desired color match requirements.

The recommended use for this product is fireproofing of interior steel beams, columns, tube steel, and pipes.

Product Features:• Designs for many types of steel section;• Decorative finish - provides a hard, durable, architectural

finish. Compatible topcoats available in a wide range ofcolors;

• Thin film coating - offers an economical solution toalternative fireproofing;

• VOC compliant;• Easy repair - If damaged, product can be patched easily;• Third party listing certificate.

Color Finish – Off White – smooth finish

Wet Film Thickness – 45.0 mils (1143 microns)

Dry Film Thickness – 30.0 mils (762 microns)

Solids Content – By Volume 69%

Theoretical Coverage Rate1075 ft2 at 1 mil (1002 m / at 25 microns) 36 ft2 at 30 mils (3.3 2 m / at 750 microns)

Calculating Dry Film Thickness In order to accurately calculate the dry film thickness the following calculation should be used: WFT=(DFT/Volume Solids) X 100

Limitations – Product must be top coated if there are environmental exposure requirements. Refer to FlameOFF Coatings, Inc. technical support.

Surface Preparation – All surfaces must be primed and must be clean, dry, and free of oil, grease, loose mil scale, dirt, dust or other materials that would impair the bonding of FlameOFF to the substrate.

Fireproofing Topcoats

For interior conditioned space, topcoats are optional. For general purpose requirements,Contact Technical Services at FlameOFF Coatings, Inc to obtain a list of approved/tested topcoats.

** Intumescent coating must be applied to the required DFT and cured before a topcoat is applied.

FlameOFF – ApplicationPrimer – must be applied to the steel substrate.

Dry Film - Wet Film Thickness

The applied thickness of FlameOFF - will depend on the size / shape of the substrate. The detail design will show the required thickness of each member. Contact FlameOFF Coatings, Inc. for a detail design guide.

Mixer – Use 1/2” electric or air driven drill with a slotted paddle mixer (300 rpm under load)

Mixing – FlameOFF must be mixed using a 1/2” electric air driven drill with a slotted paddle or Jiffy mixer blade. Mix material for a minimum of 5 minutes to achieve the necessary texture required before spraying.

Thinning – Do not thin

Airless Spray – Use 1.0 gal. per minute electric airless (minimum)to provide an operating pressure of 2,000 p.s.i. (140 kg/cm2).** Remove rock catcher from siphon tube.**

Airless Spray - A single coat built up with a number of quick passes allows greater control over quantities, thickness and finish. **Note - In most conditions, it is advantageous to apply two thin coats rather than one thick coat.**

Application Rates - Spray: 45 mils (1.14 mm) per coat (wet) Brush: 10 mils (0.25 mm) per coat (wet) **7 hour recoat time. See Application Manual.**

Wet FilmThickness – Frequent thickness measurements with a wet film gauge are recommended during the application process to ensure uniform thickness.

Dry Film Thickness – Final thickness must be measured using an electronic dry film thickness gauge. For method of thickness determination and tolerances refer to: AWCI Technical Manual 12-B (Standard Practice for the Testing and Inspection of Field Applied Thin Film Intumescent Materials); and International Building Code - IBC 1705.14
