Information and questions on materials that can be used in your ToughTek F340e and F680e pumps, including sprayable materials and material types.

 

Why does flow/output vary when applying different types of fireproofing materials?

In general, the more compressible a material is the lower the pump flow/output.  Lower density fireproofing materials tend to be more compressible; therefore, pump output is reduced. Medium and high density materials tend to be less compressible in which pump output is greater with these materials.  
 

The ToughTek Fireproofing Pumps can spray a variety of fireproofing materials. In general, low, medium, and high density, as well as gypsum-based and Portland cement-based fireproofing materials, can be sprayed with this equipment. Extremely low-density materials, however, may not be able to be sprayed.
