How do Tenmat Fire Barriers work?
The covers prevent the passage of flames and insulate against excessive heat build up. Without the covers, the fire could quickly spread and the building structure could be weakened. The FF109 Downlighter and High Hat Fixture Protection Covers have intumescent characteristics so that in the case of a fire the covers expand internally to form a highly insulative char to seal off any gaps and prevent the fire and heat from spreading further.
