| When properly installed, 3M Interam Endothermic Mat E-5A-4 provides a uniform covering that, when exposed to high temperatures, releases chemically-bound water to cool the outer surfaces of the wrap material and significantly retard heat transfer. Helps protect structural steel components for up to four hours, critical electrical components for up to three hours and wall opening membranes for up to two hours. Applied to the back and sides of metallic utility boxes, this product helps achieve and equal F-rating and T-rating in membrane penetrations of rated wall assemblies. 3M Interam Endothermic Mat E-5A-4 is non-flame supporting with low-smoke evolution. The mat is flexible which aids in installation and allows it to more easily be applied on complex shapes and around corners.Information provided by 3M |
