Roxtec sealing and clamping solutions

Roxtec CRF – our compact all-in-one sealing solution

Roxtec CRF – our compact all-in-one sealing solution

The flexible Roxtec CRF system meets the strictest standards for fire resistance, ingress protection and vibration resistance, and allows for easy installation and retrofit. You can use either Roxtec CM and CM PPS sealing modules that adapt to cables and conduits of many sizes or Roxtec CRF and CRF PPS modules that are ideal for high-speed installation and serial production with already known cable and conduit sizes. The PPS versions contain intumescent material which expands to protect plastic conduit applications in case of fire.

Fire protection of plastic conduit penetrations

Fire protection of plastic conduit penetrations

More technical services on rail vehicles mean more small cables and wires to route and more plastic conduit penetrations to seal. This requires efficient fire protection of plastic conduit penetrations. Roxtec RM PPS, CM PPS and CRF PPS sealing modules fulfill the requirements set in the EN 45545-2 and EN 45545-3 standards, achieving the highest hazard level, HL3, and a fire integrity of up to E60.
