5. Packaging, Storage, Shelf Life

Packaging 3M ™ Interam™ Endothermic Mat E-5A-4 is packaged in a corrugated cardboard box, 1 roll per box.
Storage 3M ™ Interam™ Endothermic Mat E-5A-4 is stable under normal storage conditions, store in a dry warehouse environment in
original, unopened container. Normal stock and stock rotation practices are recommended.
Shelf Life Product shelf life is indefinite when stored indoors.

6. Installation Techniques Consult a 3M Authorized Fire Protection Products Distributor / Dealer or Sales Representative
for Applicable Listed Third Party (e.g. UL, ULC, Intertek, FM) drawings and system details. Refer to application-specific 3M ™ Interam™ Endothermic
Mat E-5A-4 Installation Guides for installation information.
Recommended tools/materials For a typical mat installation, the following tools may be of assistance: razor knife, large scissors or electric scissors
(to cut mat), T-Square or similar straight edge (to help with straight cuts of mat), tape measure (to measure mat
required), marking pen (to identify layers of mat), 3M ™ Aluminum Foil Tape 425 (to seal cut edges of mat), rubber
roller (to ensure good adhesion of tape), Scotch® Filament Tape 898 (to temporarily hold mat pieces in place -
optional), stainless steel bands 1/2 in. wide x .020 in. min thick (12.7 mm x .5 mm) and band clips to help secure
mat, band tensioners, 3M™ Fire Barrier Sealant CP 25WB+ (to fill seams).
Installation considerations Determine the appropriate number of layers required for your application. Ensure proper covering and protection
of joints, seams, overlaps and any area that requires special cutting and fitting. Ensure proper use of banding
to mechanically restrain the mat system. Refer to listed system details for sealant, banding requirements,
layer requirements and other installation procedures.

7. Maintenance No maintenance is expected to be required when installed in accordance with listed system details. Once installed,
if any section of the 3M™ Interam™ Endothermic Mat E-5A-4 is damaged, the following procedure will apply: for damage to the outer metallic covering,
install 3M™ Aluminum Foil Tape 425 to overlap a min. 2" (50.8 mm) in all directions. For more extensive damage (including damage to the mat material),
contact 3M Fire Protection Products at 1-800-328-1687.

8. Availability 3M™ Interam™ Endothermic Mat E-5A-4 is available from 3M Authorized Fire Protection Products Distributors and Dealers.
3M ™ Interam™ Endothermic Mat E-5A-4 comes 1/case and is available in a 24.5 in. x 20 ft. roll (622.3 mm x 6.1 m). For additional technical and pur-
chasing information regarding this and other 3M Fire Protection Products, please call: 1-800-328-1687 or visit www.3m.com/firestop.
