The problem? Preventing the spread of fire and smoke within wall/ceiling joints can be slow, painful, and frequently required by building codes. The solution? Fire-rated accessories that are easier to use, faster to install, and longer-lasting than traditional sealants and sprays. Trim-Tex’s latest innovation in this field, Fire Tape®, is the fastest, simplest way to complete a firewall yet—without using a drop of mud.

Fire Tape is a self-adhesive drywall finishing tape that can be used in place of regular paper tape and joint compound, making it the fastest way to stop the spread of fire and smoke between wall joints. 1- or 2-hour rated, it installs easily with no mud (and no drying time!) for an exceptionally clean, dust-free finish. Usable in both residential and commercial builds—and approved for walls, ceilings, and floors—Fire Tape is ideal for any area with a Level 1 finish: above ceiling grids, in mechanical zones, elevator shafts, et al.
