BlazeFrame Profile Design Advantages

1. Parallel placement on profile flanges and extension beyond web surface provides cured intumescent materials in most “compressible” position compressed against the overhead structure sealing against ambient air and smoke while reducing airborne sound (STC)
• NVLAP lab certified similar to GA Manual ratings of caulk material
• Single Wall 1/2” open head of wall gap (no caulk) – 52 STC
• Chase Wall 1/2” open head of wall gap (no caulk) – 62 STC
2. 2mm thickness of fire stop materials is thicker than wafer head fastener providing a tight seal against wall sheathing
• UL Certified and Listed for lowest possible leakage rating
• Rated for “Less than 1 CFM/Lin Ft” leakage
3. UL listed certifications in variations of track legs allow flexibility
• Slotted legs both sides – Single wall positive attachment
• Slotted leg one side – Shaft, Chase, and Single Wall “one-sided” positive attachment
• Solid legs – Free Floating studs and vertical joint profiles
• Offset legs – Accommodate fireproofing (roofs, beams, and columns)
4. UL listed configuration/location of fire stop providing flexibility
• One side – chase and shaft wall applications
• Two sided – single wall configurations
• 1/2” down leg(s) – accommodates fireproofing (protected metal decks)
• Offset fire stop – Protection of control joints (093) in Stair Shaft assemblies
• Location on offset leg profiles “disconnects” wall sheathing and fireproofing
5. Various UL certified intumescent strip widths and profiles provide up to 3” movement capabilities and joint protection
