100 x 30mm Intumescent Hinge Pads (Graphite/Flexifire)

DOWNLOADS & FIRE DOCUMENTS

The type of material and thickness your hinge needs depends on the FIRE CERTIFICATE or TEST EVIDENCE of your hinge. 

But, as a general rule, you would need 0.8mm or 1.0mm for a 30 minute fire door and 2.0mm for a 60 minute fire door.

Each hinge is also tested with either graphite or MAP (Mono Ammonium Phosphate, white in colour and commonly called by it's brand name 'Interdens') or BOTH.

Is this the right SIZE pad for my hinge?

You will need to measure the hinge (measure the long ledge of one leaf and then the short length between the edge of one leaf and the knuckle of the hinge as per the diagram on the right). 

Which type of MATERIAL of intumescent do I need?

This will depend on the fire certificate or test evidence of the hinge and latch or, it will be dictated by the door certificate, just ask your fire officer or Responsible Person and they can tell you which documents to follow.

If you can't find the fire document you need please contact us as we have a database that is free to access.

Which THICKNESS of intumescent pad do I need to use?

The thickness of the material (either 0.8mm, 1.0mm or 2.0mm) will depend on the fire certificate of your ironmongery or the fire door, whichever is recommended by your fire officer or Responsible Person.

For a copy of the fire certificate just email us at info@FireEssentials.co.uk with your product details and we will send you a link to the fire document.
