BS7671:2018 (Jan 2019) 18th Edition requires further changes effective from 1st January 2019 which push the requirements for fire resistant cable fixings beyond escape routes to the complete installation. Regulation 521.10.202 "Requires cables to be adequately supported against their premature collapse in the event of a fire. This applies throughout the installation and not just in escape routes" It also specifically prohibits the use of non-metallic clips, cable ties or plastic trunking as the sole means of support. "Where a non-metallic cable trunking is used, a suitable fire-resistant means of support must be provided to prevent cables falling and causing potentially fatal entanglements."
- Flex design grips the cables and clamps into position even in the event of a fire
- Quick and easy to apply simply push the clip over the cables and hammer into position
- Integrated hardened steel nail pre-fitted to clips to ensure a secure fixing to the building fabric (nail dimensions 25mm x 2.5mm)
- Meets the requirements of BS7671 3rd Amendment 17th Edition
- Manufactured from stainless steel 430 material with a PA11 coating
