MetaBlock® MBW2H – 2 Hour Wall Expansion Joint Fire Barrier

MetaBlock® is a patented resilient fire barrier for use in vertical (and horizontal) applications that installs without mechanical fasteners.

IDEAL FOR:

• Use in conjunction with elastomeric seals where attachment with mechanical fasteners is not possible
• Applications requiring many transitions
• Wall (and floor) applications where a quick, simple installation is desired
• 1, 2, 3, or 4 hour fire-rated construction

ADVANTAGES:

• Easy to install, splice, and transition
• Reduces installation costs
• Does not require mechanical fasteners, caulks, or sealants
• Contains no asbestos
• Contains no solvents or other hazardous ingredients
• May be used with a variety of joint cover systems and cover materials

Balco Fire Barriers protect expansion joint openings by dynamically continuing the fire-rated construction design elements throughout the structural separation allowing for thermal, wind and seismic movements and for fire ratings up to 4 hours. Fire Barriers are a critical component of building safety solutions.
