General Product Information

ROXULŽ products are mineral wool fiber insulations made from basalt rock and slag. This combination results in a non-combustible product with a melting point of approximately 2150°F (1177°C), which gives it excellent fire resistance properties. ROXUL mineral wool is a water repellent yet vapor permeable material.

Description and Common Applications

ROXUL SAFEŽ product is a non-combustible, lightweight and water repellent semi-rigid insulation batt that provides fire stopping and acoustical insulation properties. Specifically engineered and produced for use in commercial, industrial and residential buildings as fire stopping material, SAFE can be used for applications such as:

• perimeter gaps between concrete floor slabs and exterior wall systems
• around conduit pipe and duct openings through walls and floor slabs
• between fire walls and ceiling slabs

This product has excellent fire performance properties, such as high melt temperature and low thermal conductivity which means the insulation acts as a shield against fire and temperature. In addition, ROXUL products are subject to very little shrinkage in the critical phase of a fire, so the insulation layers remain in place to better prohibit the spread of flame.

SAFE is intended to be used in conjunction with a fire sealant to prevent the passage of fire and smoke.
