FG3000 Fire Glazing Products

Introduction
FG3000S45 and FG3000S90 are specially formulated high performance fire glazing tapes. In 20, 45, 60 and 90 minute rated wood and hollow metal doors with metal vision frames, the use of Pemko’s FG3000 allows for much larger vision lites. In 20 and 45 minute rated hollow metal screens the use of FG3000 allows for much larger side lites, borrowed lites and glass transoms. For exterior fire rated applications, seal against moisture using standard industry methods. In test after test for positive pressure, FG3000S45 has successfully passed 20 minutes (with hose stream) and 45 minutes on wood and metal doors with vision lites installed. FG3000S90 has successfully passed 90 minutes on wood and metal doors with vision lites installed.
