Tecbor® Joint Paste Ready to Use
Tecbor® Joint paste ready to use is an ablative coating containing an aqueous dispersion of blinding polymers that produce an endothermic reaction in event of fire, thereby preventing the spread of flames and limiting the propagation of fire and smoke.
Tecbor® Joint paste ready to use is most commonly used for to protect cables trays in order to ensure that electricity is maintained during a fire, and to form secure joints in ductwork formation.
Product documents
The combination of 145 kg/m3 rock wool with Tecbor® Joint paste ready to use, creates a comprehensive sealing system for all types of installations.
It is especially useful for protecting metallic trays through which cables are run and that are located on both decking and walls, as well as on rigid and flexible supports.
Ducts that are not properly sealed off become genuine chimneys in the event of a fire. In addition to the possibility of vertical propagation, the ducts must also be horizontally sealed in order to prevent them from transferring the fire between different compartments on the same floor.
Tecbor® Joint paste ready to use is the perfect solution for preventing the propagation of a fire through the service shafts.

Application and Use
Tecbor® Joint Paste ready to use is a pre-mixed coating.
Before application, it is advisable to stir the paste. Add the quantity of water required to obtain the desired viscosity.
Before application, check that the surfaces are clean and free from any oil or dust.
Apply with airless spray gun. For smaller holes, a trowel or brush may be used.
Once applied, the product can with stand temperatures ranging from -40°C to +80°C with no chemical degradation, decolouration or reduced efficiency.
It is not susceptible to humidity and can therefore be used outside. If there is too much humidity when creating the seal, it is advisable to apply the paste in various layers, thereby facilitating the drying process.
Contact our sales department for more information.
Application procedure:
- Services crossings cables trays that cross over various fire compartments.
- Rock wool placement. Measure the gap to be covered and cut the wool to size. Take special care to cover even the smallest cracks that appear on the cables and the supporting structure.
- Apply the Tecbor® Joint paste ready to use over both sides of the wool on cables, apply least 300 mm on each side. The paste will be at least 1.5 mm thick when dry.
Product document
Provided the electrical system must remain fully operational during a fire, cables must be suitably protected. In public buildings and high-rise buildings, it is critical that the basic systems remain operative in order to carry out a proper evacuation.
Tecbor® Joint paste ready to use applied on cables and metallic cable trays provides the installation with proper functioning, giving continuity to the power supply as well as avoiding short circuits and derivations.
It is the perfect solution for cable trays which need to be replaced or regularly revised, as it allows to repair or change the cables and also protect them afterwards by applying the paste again.
