PRODUCT DATA SHEET
PEN200
Silicone Foam
Reproduced from Electronic Media
1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Pensil?200 Firestop Foam (PEN200) is a two-component RTV silicone foam that features excellent crack-and-void filling capabilities. Unlike
other foams, PEN200 exhibits uniform cell structure, assuring reproducible, smoke-tight, fire resistant installations. Minimal pressure during
foaming virtually eliminates shrinkage of the cured material. The elastic properties of the foam readily accommodate minor vibration of the pipe,
conduit, etc. without loss of system integrity. Used in a 1:1 mix ratio, PEN200, when properly mixed, expands to approximately 4 times its original
volume, filling available spaces and forming an effective barrier against fire, smoke and water penetration.
2. APPLICATIONS
PEN200 has been tested as a seal for both floor and wall penetrations against the passage of fire, smoke or other hot gases. PEN200 is applied
in liquid form and then foams in place, readily sealing around penetrating items such as conduits, cables, duct work or mechanical piping.
PEN200 may also be useful in sealing areas such as control rooms against infiltration of airborne contaminants such as coal dust, dirt, etc. The
physical properties of PEN200 also make it an ideal product for use as a thermal or acoustical insulation, or for vibration dampening.
PEN200 is ideally suited for medium to large penetrations involving noncombustible penetrants, cable trays, or electrical, data, or telephone
cables.
3. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
See Table A.
4. PERFORMANCE
PEN200 is the basis for systems that meet the exacting criteria of ASTM E814 (UL1479) as
well as to the time-temperature requirements of ASTM E119 (UL263). Systems have been
tested primarily for concrete or masonry construction with ratings up to 3 hours.
STI firestop systems are designed to maximize the fire resistance of the seal by not only sealing
off the spread of fire and hot gasses but also by minimizing the amount of heat conducted
through the assembly. Thus all systems have been designed to provide T Ratings capable of
matching the rating of the wall or floor assembly (where possible) when tested without penetrants.
6. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL: Areas to be protected must be clean and free of oil, loose dirt, rust or scale.
Installation temperatures must be between 50癋 and 90癋.
PRIMING: Adhesion to concrete or masonry surfaces is generally very good. Bond breaking
contaminants must be removed using mechanical abrasion or solvent cleaning as required.
Adhesion to difficult substrates may be improved with the use of SS4155 primer.
SYSTEM SELECTION: Space limitations preclude highly detailed information pertaining to
individual application systems. Please consult the STI Product and Application Guide as well
as the UL?Fire Resistance Directory for additional information.
FORMING: PEN200 is installed as a liquid fill, therefore, forming or damming is required. In
some systems, forming materials may contribute to the fire-resistance rating of the system and FILL, VOID OR CAVITY MATERIALS
must be left in place. Consult appropriate STI drawing or UL Fire Resistance Directory for CLASSIFIED BY UNDERWRITERS

system requirements.
FOR USE IN JOINTS SYSTEMS
MIXING & FOAMING: PEN200 is supplied as two equal components (Parts A & B). Settling (of
filler) and separation during storage is expected, therefore both components must be stirred SEE UL FIRE RESISTANCE DIRECTORY

Silicone Sealant
Reproduced from Electronic Media
1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Pensil?Silicone Sealants are one-part neutral curing silicone sealants exhibiting
superior performance in applications where sealing apertures in walls and floors
are needed to control the spread of fire, smoke, toxic gasses, and water during fire
conditions.
Pensil Silicone Sealants react with atmospheric moisture to form a tough durable
seal that will adhere to most building substrates without the use of primers. Pensil
products do not contain asbestos or PCBs.
BASIC USES:
Pensil 300 Firestop Sealant is designed for use in Underwriters Laboratories (UL)
classified firestop systems. This material can also insulate openings to prevent
damage from occasional water spillage and dust penetration in sensitive areas.
Pensil 300 Firestop Sealant is available in non slump (PEN300) and self-leveling
(PEN300 SL) grades and may also be used to seal vertical and horizontal joints
between metals, masonry, concrete and other common construction materials.
Pensil 300 is especially designed for use in static or dynamic joints. The low modulus
characteristic minimizes strain on the substrate surface and the elastomeric quality
allows excellent recovery from extension and compression cycling.
2. APPLICATIONS
Pensil 300 is used to seal through-penetrations involving non-combustible

SpecSeal?Series SSS Sealant is the
basis for systems that meet the exacting
criteria of ASTM E814 (UL1479) as well
as to the time-temperature requirements
of ASTM E119 (UL263). Systems have
been tested for all common forms of
construction and most common
penetrants with ratings up to 4 hours.
