Fire Rated Tapes for Specialist Applications

Fire rated tape support sealing, protection and vapour control where fire performance matters. They can help complete details in compatible fire-rated systems. Contractors use them for selected membrane joints, AVCL details, pipe protection and specialist sealing work.

Selected Options

BaseTec supplies fire rated tapes from recognised manufacturers, including Denso and Visqueen products. Options include fire-retardant petrolatum tapes and fire-rated vapour control tapes. Some products only achieve their stated classification as part of a tested system.

Choosing the Right Tape

The right tape depends on the substrate, system, exposure and required fire classification. Always check the manufacturer’s datasheet before selecting a tape for fire-rated work. Do not assume any one tape suits every fire protection detail.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fire Rated Tape

What is fire rated tape used for?

Fire rated tape is commonly used to help support fire-resistant sealing, jointing or protection details in suitable construction systems. Its exact use depends on the tape type, tested application and surrounding materials. Always check the product data sheet and fire test evidence before selecting a tape.

Can fire rated tape be used in any fire protection system?

Fire rated tape should only be used in compatible fire protection systems where the product has been tested or approved for the intended application. Suitability can depend on the substrate, joint type, service penetration, fire rating requirement and installation method. Seek technical advice before use in life-safety applications.

How do I choose the right fire rated tape?

The right fire rated tape depends on the required fire performance, construction detail, surface material and system specification. Some tapes may suit joints, service penetrations or insulation details, but performance must be confirmed against the relevant product data and test evidence.

Does fire rated tape stop fire spreading?

Fire rated tape may help support fire resistance when used correctly as part of a tested fire protection system. It should not be treated as a standalone fire-stopping solution unless the manufacturer’s data confirms that use. Always follow the approved installation method and specification.
