Buy good quality 12mm calcium silicate board for wide range of uses in construction, making fire doors, industrial applications at Wedge India.

 

A 12mm calcium silicate board is a specific type of calcium silicate board that is 12 millimeters thick. These boards are commonly used in various construction and industrial applications due to their excellent properties, including fire resistance, moisture resistance, durability, and thermal insulation.

 

Key Features of 12mm Calcium Silicate Board:

1. Fire Resistance:

• Calcium silicate boards are non-combustible and can withstand high temperatures without degrading. The 12mm thickness provides good fire resistance, making it suitable for fire-rated constructions such as partitions, walls, and ceilings.

2. Moisture Resistance:

• These boards are highly resistant to moisture and do not warp, swell, or rot when exposed to water. This makes them ideal for use in wet or humid environments like bathrooms, kitchens, and basements.

3. Thermal Insulation:

• The 12mm thickness provides effective thermal insulation, helping to maintain indoor temperature and reduce energy consumption.

4. Acoustic Insulation:

• Calcium silicate boards also offer sound insulation, reducing noise transmission between rooms or from external sources.

5. Durability:

• These boards are strong, long-lasting, and resistant to impact, chemicals, and pests. They do not shrink or decompose over time.

6. Lightweight and Easy to Install:

• Despite their strength, 12mm calcium silicate boards are relatively lightweight, making them easier to handle and install compared to other materials of similar properties.

 

Applications:

1. Wall and Ceiling Cladding:

• Used as cladding for both interior and exterior walls and ceilings, especially in areas where fire resistance and moisture protection are required.

2. Partitions:

• Ideal for creating fire-rated partitions in commercial and residential buildings.

3. Flooring Underlayment:

• Can be used as a subfloor material in combination with other flooring systems, providing a stable, moisture-resistant base.

4. Roofing:

• Used as an underlayment for roofs, contributing to thermal insulation and fire protection.

5. Industrial Applications:

• Utilized in industrial environments where high-temperature insulation is needed, such as in furnace linings and kiln construction.

6. Fire Doors Making

Using a 12mm calcium silicate board for fire doors is an effective way to enhance the fire resistance of the door assembly. Fire doors are crucial in preventing the spread of fire and smoke between different areas of a building, and the choice of materials plays a significant role in their performance.

 

Application in Fire Doors:

1. Core Material:

• The 12mm calcium silicate board can be used as a core material within the fire door, sandwiched between layers of other materials such as steel, wood, or veneer. This configuration enhances the door’s overall fire resistance.

2. Surface Layer:

• It can also be used as a surface layer on the fire door, where it provides both fire resistance and a smooth, durable surface that can be finished with paint or other coatings.

3. Lining and Insulation:

• In some fire door designs, the board is used as an insulating layer inside the door to provide additional protection against heat transfer.

 

Installation Considerations:

• Cutting and Shaping:

• The 12mm calcium silicate board can be cut and shaped with standard tools, allowing for customization and fitting in various spaces.

• Fixing:

• Boards can be fixed to structures using screws, nails, or adhesives, depending on the application.

• Joint Treatment:

• Proper sealing of joints between boards is important to ensure a continuous surface and maintain fire and moisture resistance.

• Surface Finishing:

• The surface of the boards can be painted, tiled, or covered with other finishes as needed.

 

Advantages of Using 12mm Calcium Silicate Board:

• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications, from residential to industrial.

• Safety: Provides excellent fire protection and does not emit toxic fumes when exposed to heat.

• Sustainability: Often made from natural and recyclable materials, contributing to eco-friendly construction practices.

 

A 12mm calcium silicate board is a versatile and reliable material that provides excellent fire resistance, moisture protection, and durability, making it a popular choice in various construction and industrial applications.
