Fire Resistant Vermiculite Board
Low price Fireproof or fire Resistant Vermiculite Boards Wedge make are specifically designed to withstand high temperatures and provide effective fire protection. These boards are made by compressing expanded vermiculite particles with a special binder that enhances their ability to resist fire and heat.
 
Here are some key characteristics and uses of fire-resistant vermiculite boards:
High temperature resistance: Fire-resistant vermiculite boards are capable of withstanding temperatures up to 1000°C (1832°F) or even higher, depending on the specific formulation and manufacturing process.
Fireproofing: These boards are used in applications where fire protection is critical, such as lining fireplaces, wood stoves, chimneys, and other high-temperature environments. They act as a barrier, preventing the spread of flames and heat to surrounding structures.
Insulation: In addition to their fire-resistant properties, vermiculite boards also provide thermal insulation, helping to retain heat and improve energy efficiency in heating appliances.
Structural support: Fire-resistant vermiculite boards can serve as a structural component in fireproofing systems, providing support and stability to the overall construction.
Lightweight: Despite their high temperature resistance, vermiculite boards remain lightweight, which facilitates handling and installation.
Chemical stability: Like other vermiculite-based materials, fire-resistant vermiculite boards are chemically stable and resistant to corrosion, ensuring long-term durability in various environments.
Versatility: Fire-resistant vermiculite boards come in various sizes and thicknesses, allowing for customization to fit different applications and construction requirements.
 
Fire-resistant vermiculite boards are essential components in fireproofing systems, offering reliable protection against high temperatures and helping to ensure the safety of buildings and occupants. They are widely used in both residential and commercial settings where fire hazards are a concern.
