Manufactured from a red non-setting, flexible silicone based intumescent polymer. They will not harden, crack or dry out with age. The intumescent properties activate as temperatures reach 200°C, restricting the passage of fire and smoke.
- Developed for use in plasterboard partitions that have been partially penetrated by electrical socket boxes
- Designed to maintain acoustic integrity and fire resistance
Available on 7-10 working days delivery at checkout.
Intumescent Putty Pads are designed for (but not limited to) effecting a fire and acoustic seal around plastic or metal electrical socket boxes. Using the putty pads removes the need to install time-consuming baffle boxes.
Under fire conditions the intumescent pad expands to fill the void left by the burnt out electrical socket box, preventing the spread of fire through the plasterboard wall. The intumescent putty can also be used for upgrading the acoustic performance of partitions where electrical sockets boxes have penetrated the wall, reducing room-to-room noise transfer.
