30mm Rockwool RW3 Insulation Slab Black Tissue Faced Two Sides is a rigid, 60kg density non-combustible fire resistant resin bonded stone wool insulation slab, used for structural elements such as concrete car park soffits.

Black Tissue Faced Both Sides Rockwool RW3 (Formerly ProRox® SL 930) 30mm is a medium-density 60kg per cubic meter, rigid soffit insulation slab with a certified thermal conductivity (lambda value) of 0.034 W/mK.

The black tissue facings help to avoid the slab edges from showing as shadows through the perforated inner sheet and assists in preventing fibre migration (five times less fibre migration-bullet).

RW3 Insulation Slab 30mm x 600mm x 1200mm faced with black tissue on 2 sides can provide from 30 minutes up to 240 minutes fire protection to the underside of concrete soffits.

Rockwool RW3 (BTFx2) Slab works in two distinct ways to reduce noise, either by impeding the transmission of sound through an element of the structure or by absorption of sound at the surface.

These fire, thermal and acoustic Rockwool RW3 black tissue faced 2 sides insulation slabs are free of CFCs and HCFCs and will not encourage the growth of fungi, mould or bacteria.

The structure of the fibres in RW3 stone wool insulation slabs make them an ideal solution for use as a sound absorber with water repellent qualities of the insulation preventing moisture build up, damp and rot.

Rockwool RW3 with Black Tissue Facing on both sides is a robust long-lasting insulation made from renewable resources which will maintain high performance over the lifetime of the building.

RW3 Black Tissue Faced 2 Sides Slab works in two ways to reduce noise, either by absorption of sound at the surface or inhibiting its transmission.

ROCKWOOL RW3 Soffit Insulation Slab has achieved a Euroclass A1 fire rating and is capable of withstanding temperatures in excess of 1000°C.

The absorption coefficient achieved will vary according to thickness and density of the slab and application.

Black Tissue Faced 2 Sides (BTFx2) Rockwool RW3 Soffit Insulation Slab Installation Guide:

 · When fixing a tile or modular system, it is advisable to start with a focus reference slab in the centre of the soffit with subsequent slabs being fixed working towards each edge.

 · The use of string lines or laser alignment equipment will assist in ensuring alignment and squareness of the installation.

 · If RW3 is installed into a concrete or steel composite deck, a pilot hold should first be drilled prior to the fixing being screwed into place.

 · RW3 Soffit Slabs should be fixed directly to the concrete soffit using Ejot DDS fixings with the Ejot DDT70 washer or similar.

 · Care should be taken not to over-tighten fixings to prevent damage to the slab surface.

 · For further information on fixing type and suitability for the substrate, please refer to the fixing manufacturer.

 · It is recommended that all black tissue faced slab joints should be staggered and tightly butt jointed.

 · Soffit insulation RW3 slabs should not be used for supporting light fittings or services.

 · Such installations should be supported from the concrete soffit.

 · Where penetrations occur, the boards should be cut locally to ensure a tight fit around the penetration.

 · Black Tissue Faced Slabs can be cut slightly oversized to ensure a tight fit under slight compression around the penetration.

 · Any small gaps that result from cutting can be infilled using the Acoustic Intumescent Sealant.

Black Tissue Faced Two Sides Rockwool RW3 Soffit Insulation Slab Health and Safety Regulations:

 · The safety of Rockwool stone wool is confirmed by current UK and Republic of Ireland health & safety regulations.

 · Rockwool fibres are not classified as a possible human carcinogen.

 · The mechanical effect of fibres in contact with skin may cause temporary itching.

 · Cover exposed skin during handling and installation.

 · When working in an unventilated area, wear a disposable face mask.

 · Clean working area using vacuum equipment.

 · Waste should be disposed of according to local regulations.

 · Rinse in cold water before washing.

 · Ventilate the working area if possible.

 · Wear goggles when working overhead.
