Hoover/ PYRO-GUARD overview
Pyro-Guard is pressure-impregnated, thirdgeneration,
interior fire-retardant treated lumber
and plywood for enclosed structural applications.
Uses
Pyro-Guard is recommended for enclosed structural
applications such as:
- Plywood roof sheathing
- Roof trusses
- Rafters
- Floor joists
- Mezzanines
- Shelving
- Load-bearing walls

Pyro-Guard plywood span ratings and lumber
design value adjustments are based on
strength testing after prolonged exposure to
high temperatures experienced in roof applications. |
Pyro-Guard has been strength-tested after prolonged
exposure to elevated temperatures and
moisture to verify its strength characteristics
when used in roof systems and other recommended
applications.
