2b. If penetrations are located (permanent firestop), build up
FS 657 FIRE BLOCK firmly seated, while cutting blocks with
a knife to suit the placed penetrations.
3. Finish building up FIRE BLOCKS until entire opening is filled.
4. Completely fill cable spaces, gaps between blocks and pipes,
and joints with FS-ONE Firestop Sealant.
5. For maintenance reasons, a penetration seal could be perma-
nently marked with an identification plate. In such a case, mark
the identification plate and fasten it in a visible position next to
the seal.
Re-installing cables or other penetrations
• Remove or cut the block from the seal.
• Install the penetrant and re-lay the block in compliance with
the approval. Fill gaps and spaces with FS-ONE.
Single cables can be run through joints between blocks or
