Description
UNIQUE Firestop Sponge Foam blocks flames and acts as an insulator from the heat of an engine or fuel cell fire in NASCAR competition. Ideal for the things that move in and through your automotive firewall such as shafts and rods. Made in the USA and available in 4 sizes.
UNIQUE’s Automotive Firestop Sponge Foam looks like ordinary foam rubber, but it does so much more! Used as directed, our Sponge Foam can block the flame of an engine or fuel cell fire and can keep the flame from touching the driver. This is especially important when there is an opening in the firewall for a moving part such as a throttle or steering rod, openings that often exist right under the driver’s legs. These openings can be encapsulated in our Automotive Firestop Sponge Foam which will not catch fire. This material does not intumesce (swell up) like the putty in our firestopping sleeves or harden like the UNIQUE Expanding Fire Stop Foam but actually blocks a fire and acts as an insulator from the heat. Because it is flexible, it allows for full movement of the moving part going through the firewall opening. Ideal for use in NASCAR competition cars.
