Abstract: A fire-seal for a cable penetration is provided with a pre-fabricated fire-sealing body comprising a corrugated tubular casing filled with a pre-compressed fire resisting elastic silicon foam. The body is placed in a site-poured concrete wall before pouring, or in an aerated concrete block from which a fire wall is then built. A tubular tool with a removable tip is driven through the foam so that one or more conduits can be threaded through the tool and foam. The tool is thereafter withdrawn from the foam and opened along an axial slit so that it can be removed transverse to the conduit.
