Matrix Engineered Mineral Board
PROMATECT®-L500 is a lightweight mineral matrix engineered board which is off-white/beige in color and has a smooth sanded surface on one face with a lightly honeycombed texture on the reverse face.
PROMATECT®-L500 is chemically inert and is resistant to diluted acids and alkalis. Boards should be protected where high chemical concentrations are likely to occur.
PROMATECT®-L500 is resistant to the effects of moisture and will not physically deteriorate when used in damp or humid conditions. Performance characteristics are not degraded by age or moisture. Untreated surfaces will absorb water which can cause some loss of strength but strength is regained after drying. PROMATECT®-L500 does not encourage mold growth and is resistant to attack by vermin.
ADVANTAGES
- Resistant to the effects of moisture
- Not physically deteriorate when used in damp or humid conditions
- Performance characteristics are not degraded by age or moisture.
Applications
-
- Electrical Cable Enclosures
- Wall Structures
- Ventilation & smoke extraction enclosures
