Through-penetration firestop products resembling small cushions or soft bricks.. Intumescent and highly resilient pillows installed in openings by compressing and stacking into the opening in a brick-like fashion.
SpecSeal SSB24 is a lightweight, intumescent firestop pillow for sealing medium to large openings with mixed services. Each pillow compresses and stacks easily in a brick-like fashion, then expands under fire exposure to help block flame, smoke, and hot gases. The durable, heat-sealed outer bag resists unraveling, supports clean installations, and allows fast retrofit without damaging the seal.

How do I size the opening?
Compress and stack pillows to fill the opening with uniform pressure; add mesh or retaining hardware as required by the listed system.
Can I retrofit cables later?
Yes. Remove the retaining mesh (if present), take out only the pillows needed, add or remove services, then restack pillows to restore compression.
What fire ratings are possible?
Listed systems provide up to 4 hours depending on wall/floor construction, opening size, and services.
Any compatibility concerns?
The product is designed for use with many plastics and cable jackets. For unusual materials, confirm with the pipe or cable manufacturer.
How often should I inspect the seal?
Periodically check for damage or permanent over-compression and replace pillows as needed to maintain pressure in the seal.
