What is a Firefly Fire Resistant Cleat?

A Firefly Fire Resistant Cleat is a specialist fire-rated cable cleat designed to securely support and retain fire resistant cables during both normal operation and in the event of a fire. Unlike standard plastic cable clips, Firefly fire resistant cleats are manufactured from durable steel with a corrosion-resistant black coating, allowing them to maintain cable support even when exposed to high temperatures.

Firefly fire resistant cleats are specifically developed for use with fire alarm cable, emergency lighting cable, fire performance cable, evacuation system cable and other life safety electrical cables. They help prevent cables from collapsing during a fire, ensuring escape routes remain clear and helping critical electrical systems continue to operate for as long as possible.

Suitable for use in commercial buildings, hospitals, schools, hotels, offices, warehouses, industrial facilities, public buildings and residential developments, Firefly fire resistant cable cleats are an essential component of any compliant fire-rated cable installation.

Where are Firefly Fire Resistant Cleats Used?

Firefly fire resistant cleats are commonly installed with Firefly fire alarm cable, enhanced fire resistant cable, standard fire resistant cable, emergency lighting cable, smoke control cable, voice alarm cable and life safety electrical systems. They are ideal for securing cables to walls, ceilings, cable trays, cable ladders, containment systems and structural steelwork, providing long-term mechanical support in demanding environments.

Fire-rated cable supports are now recognised as an important part of modern electrical installations, helping installers comply with the requirements of BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations), which require wiring systems to be supported so they are not liable to premature collapse in the event of a fire. Firefly Fire Resistant Cleats provide a reliable, robust and compliant solution for supporting life safety cables where performance matters most.
