Eddy flow told me to contact the firestop companies. I would think this
would have come up before now.

Quote:
"We do not perform any fire penetration tests on our sprinkler pipe.
Engineered Pipe (FLOW) has been manufactured for over 25 years.   I would
think 3M or others would have a fire rated penetration tested thru UL.
They have these details for electrical conduit/PVC Pipe which is a thinner
wall thickness than a Flow sprinkler pipe.     Please check with your fire
stop manufacturer for their recommendations."

All the details I have looked at are, as bullmoose said, they are OK with
EMT, PVC, Copper etc. But steel pipe has to be "Sch.10 (or heavier)"
