CAFCO® FENDOLITE® M-II is a single package, factory controlled Spray-Applied Fire Resistive Material (SFRM) based on vermiculite and portland cement, requiring only the addition of water as an activator. It is specifically developed for spray application to structural steel such as columns, beams, steel vessels and skirts in exterior environments and interior situations where higher levels of abrasion resistance and hardness are necessary. CAFCO FENDOLITE TG has been developed for application by trowel in areas where spraying is impractical or not permitted.
Although CAFCO FENDOLITE M-II is lightweight, thus significantly reducing dead load, it is also highly durable and resistant to cracking or spalling under mechanical impact. CAFCO FENDOLITE may be used in either boxed or contour designs, and the finish may be spray-textured or troweled smooth.
CAFCO FENDOLITE M-II and CAFCO FENDOLITE TG are classified by Underwriters Laboratories for up to 4 hours protection in accordance with the Rapid Rise Fire Test (UL 1709). This fire test was developed to provide a means to evaluate materials intended for use in those areas, such as petrochemical production facilities, which would develop temperatures at a more rapid rate than conventional structures. With UL 1709, the furnace temperature rises from ambient to 2000°F (1093°C) within five minutes. Only materials tested and classified in accordance with UL 1709 can be used where the risk of a hydrocarbon fire exists.
