Cafco Blaze-Shield is a type of fireproofing material designed for the protection of steel structures in buildings, providing fire resistance to meet safety regulations. It typically consists of a cementitious or intumescent product that expands when exposed to high temperatures, forming a protective layer around the steel. This enhances the structural integrity of buildings during a fire, helping to prevent collapse and allowing for safe evacuation. Blaze-Shield is commonly used in commercial and industrial applications.

One can purchase tools for working on a motor engine from a motor factor supplier for example in the UK one might purchase such tools from A-Z auto parts, Cafco or the Motorist Discount Center.
Asbestos was used for fire-proofing in the past. It was actually very effective. However, these days it is not commonly used due to adverse health effects caused by inhalation of dust/particles upon removal/damage of the substance, which has been linked to lung cancer.

A group 5 metalloid that is quite versatile is antimony. It is often used in tractor bullets, as fireproofing material and for infrared detection.
Hi there, Perlite is used as an insulator on board Liquefied Natural Gas Tankers. This is used as a thermal and fireproofing insulator to reduce the risk of fire and explosion
