Application Process

FiloSeal+HD FIRE provides a strong support system using the fire resistant hexagonal blocks made of our specially formulated material called ‘Formite’ which builds up like a honeycomb structure.

The Filoform duct sealing system FiloSeal+HD FIRE uses our fire-resistant MD+ sealant which is easily applied from a standard skeleton gun. The high quality, one component, flexible sealant “MD+” is based on a silicon compound that cures with air (Humidity).

After application and full curing the thixotropic MD+ forms a plastic elastomer mass with special qualities effectively sealing and bonding, while providing a high level of durability.

Filoform FiloSeal+HD FIRE (280070, 280080, 280090, 280100, 280110, 280120) is very easy to apply regardless of the type of cable scenario in the cable ducts as it uses strong, but flexible hexagonal blocks to support the cable and provide a strong backing for the seal.

The unique design of the hexagonal blocks makes positioning and separation of the cables very simple while also providing a strong backing for the MD+ to be applied on.
