Do you think steel banding like this is adequate as a fire clip? Screwed and plugged to masonry or screwed to timber.

Cheers ;)

Have been using this banding in larger trunking systems for several years now, we asked a Fire officer before using and he could see no reason as long as the fixing was of a heat resistant nature. We solely use the wall dog style screw now and have never been pulled up on any installations. However, if there is a manufactured clip for a containment system we will revert to those instead of the banding. When fixing onto timber we were advised to use a longer than usual length screw to allow greater hold time in the event of the timber being on fire.
