Protect Your Structures with Sherwin-Williams Firetex FX5062: Ultimate Fire Resistance

Sherwin-Williams Firetex FX5062 represents the pinnacle of fire-resistant technology, providing a water-based, TCEP-free thin film intumescent coating that’s meticulously designed for seamless airless spray application. This product not only guarantees up to 90 minutes of fire resistance for structural steel but also comes with the prestigious Certifire Approval, ensuring it meets the rigorous safety standards required in Ireland and beyond.

Certifications and Approvals:

• Certifire Approved – Bearing the Certificate CF5267, Firetex FX5062 has undergone rigorous testing and assessment in alignment with the ASFP “Yellow Book” 5th Edition, marking it as a trusted choice for fire resistance.

Compatibility and Application:

• Recommended Primers: Firetex FX5062 is compatible with a select range of primers, fire tested and approved to work in harmony with this intumescent coating. However, it must not be applied directly to galvanized steel and zinc-rich primers.
• Recommended Topcoats: For environments classified as C1 according to ISO 12944-2:2007, no topcoat is needed. In any other scenario, a topcoat is essential for enhanced protection, with options like Sher-Cryl M770, FIRETEX M71V2, and Acrolon variants available for optimal results.

Practical Advice:

Given its water-based nature, the drying process of Firetex FX5062 can be influenced by high humidity and stagnant air. It’s recommended to facilitate air movement around the coated surface to expedite drying, with a ventilated air speed of 2 meters per second as the ideal condition.

Important Considerations:

While Sherwin-Williams ensures consistent quality, slight variations may occur between batches. It’s crucial to consult with our Technical Team for tailored specifications and advice before ordering, to ensure that your fire protection needs are precisely met. Remember, fire protection products are specialized and should be applied by professionals with the necessary expertise.
