What Is FO143 Intutac Silicate Adhesive?

FO143 Intutac is a silicate-based adhesive supplied in gun-grade form. It bonds suitable fire-protection materials, including FJ203 woven rope and rock-fibre boards.

The adhesive secures components within an installation. It should therefore be selected alongside the material being bonded, the supporting substrate and the complete system detail.

For example, an FJ203 expansion-joint arrangement requires adhesive on both sides of the joint before inserting the correctly sized rope. The adhesive helps retain the rope, while the assembled system provides the specified fire performance.

Key Features of FO143 Silicate Adhesive

FO143 gun-grade adhesive combines high-temperature resistance with practical cartridge application.

• Silicate-based formulation: Designed for compatible bonding tasks in the fire-protection industry.
• High-temperature resistance: Supports service temperatures up to +1200°C.
• FJ203 rope bonding: Suitable for securing the woven rope in specified concrete expansion joints.
• Gun-grade application: Dispenses using a suitable caulking gun.
• Ready-to-use product: Requires no mixing of separate components.
• Fast-setting characteristics: Supports efficient positioning of compatible materials.
• Thixotropic consistency: Provides a paste-like application format.
• Water-cleanable tools: Allows tool cleaning with water before the adhesive hardens.

Applications of Silicate Adhesive in Jeddah

FO143 Intutac supports specialist bonding work where the materials and installation arrangement are compatible.

• Expansion-joint installations in Jeddah: Bond FJ203 Fire Rated Woven Rope to suitable concrete joint faces.
• Commercial construction in Riyadh: Support specified fire-protection component installation.
• Industrial maintenance in Dammam: Bond compatible materials requiring high-temperature resistance.
• Facility projects in Jubail: Complete suitable refractory and fire-protection bonding details.
• Refurbishment in Al Khobar: Replace or reinstate adhesive bonds within specified systems.
• Rock-fibre board installations: Bond suitable boards where the application arrangement permits.
• Specialist fabrication: Secure compatible heat-resistant components after confirming suitability.

FO143 is a bonding adhesive. It does not replace an elastic acrylic caulk, silicone joint sealant or clear concrete surface sealer.

Fire Performance and System Requirements

For FJ203 expansion-joint installations, the adhesive forms part of the specified assembly. The rope diameter, joint width, bonding arrangement and any finishing sealant must match the selected detail.

• BS EN 1366-4 — Linear-Joint Fire Testing: Applies to the fire testing of complete linear-joint sealing systems; it should not be presented as a standalone certification for FO143 adhesive.

An additional finishing seal may be necessary where the installation requires cold-smoke sealing, airtightness or watertightness.

Preparing and Applying FO143 Adhesive

A dependable bond begins with sound surfaces and the correct installation arrangement.

• Confirm material compatibility: Check the substrate and the component being bonded.
• Prepare the joint faces: Remove loose particles, dust, grease and contamination.
• Select the correct rope diameter: Match FJ203 to the specified joint width and arrangement.
• Prepare the cartridge nozzle: Cut it to suit the required adhesive bead.
• Apply to both joint faces: For qualifying FJ203 expansion joints, gun adhesive onto both sides before fitting the rope.
• Position the component carefully: Maintain continuous contact without damaging the rope or substrate.
• Complete required finishing: Include additional sealing products only where the system detail requires them.
• Clean tools promptly: Remove uncured adhesive using water.

Inspection, Maintenance and Storage

Routine checks help preserve the condition of the bonded fire-protection assembly.

• Inspect for loose rope or displaced components after installation.
• Check the bond interfaces for visible separation or damage.
• Reinspect after nearby alterations or construction activity.
• Repair using the specified system detail, rather than substituting a general-purpose adhesive.
• Record the installation location and products used for maintenance reference.
• Check expiry dates and cartridge condition before application.
• Store away from frost, direct sunlight and excessive heat within the specified temperature range.
