Prevent the Spread of Smoke, Fire and Toxic Gases
Designed for use in through-penetration firestops, such as cable trays, conduit and blank openings, 3M™ Fire Barrier Pillows are self-contained, intumescent products that expand and lock into place during a fire. This helps prevent the spread of smoke, fire and toxic gases. These fire pillows are easy to install (PDF, 170 Kb) and do not require mesh wire.
