A composition for filling the spaces in bores penetrating walls and floors of buildings and having electric wires and cables extending therethrough or for filling the clearances at the joints of interior finishing materials of buildings. The composition comprises (a) 100 parts by weight of a curable polychloroprene in a liquid state at room temperature, (b) about 200 to about 700 parts by weight of a hydrated metallic oxide, and (c) about 20 to about 100 parts by weight of a heat-resistant fibrous material. The components (b) and (c) are contained in a combined amount of at least about 250 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the component (a). The composition will not soften, sag or drip in molten drops even when subjected to the high-temperature conditions of a fire, and gives a tough residual product retaining the original shape when burned and ashed, effectively preventing the spread of fire and assuring outstanding smoketightness.
