Standard
panel size is 2400mm x 1200mm although Versafire® is available in 1830 x 915 for the application of
fire door blanks.
*Can
be fixed at 600mm centres providing the fixings are at
200mm centres / 250mm centres maximum and that they are
staggered. All edges must be supported.

Freeze/Thaw Test
Frozen at -17.5°c + 2.5°c continuously for over 16 hours. Kept frozen at -17.5°c for 4 hours. Thawed by immersing in water at approximately 20. Maintained at a temperature of 20°c ± 3°c for 5 hours. Freeze and thaw cycle is repeated 10 times.
Test result: No cracking, disintegration, crumbling, stripping occurs on the Board and it achieves the Freeze/thaw value of 1.97%
Water Endurance Test
No bloating on reverse side. Non-occurrence of swelling, breakage nor tearing apart of the board.
Compressive Strength
Conditioning:
Unless otherwise specified, all test specimens were conditioned at 23 + 2°C, 70 + 15% relative humidity and tested
at 23 + 2°C, 50 + 5% relative humidity.
