What do the terms "Elastomeric", "Endothermic" and "Intumescent" mean?
  •  Elastomeric products are flexible and prevent passage of heat and gasses while permitting movement of the assembly.
  • Endothermic products block heat by chemical absorption and moisture release.
  • Intumescent means that material expands when exposed to fire or heat to fill a void in the penetration caused by deformation or combustion of the penetration item.
