Protecta FR Putty Pad
Fire Rated Putty Pad is an easy to fit, fire and sound rated sealant supplied as a non-setting putty. It is designed to maintain the fire resistance of gypsum walls that are breached by electrical switches and sockets. The product has been assessed to AS1530.5-2014 and AS4072.1-2005 standards, ensuring compliance and reliable fire performance.
When electrical sockets and switches are installed in dry lining partitions, the original fire rating of the wall is compromised. Installing an FR Putty Pad reinstates the fire resistance for up to 2 hours (depending on the partition’s fire rating), preventing the passage of smoke and flames in the event of a fire, and also restricting sound and air movement during service life. FR Putty Pad can be fitted inside or outside the socket or wall box and, in a fire, it forms a robust, fire-resistant char that prevents burn-through at the point of electrical or pipe penetration.
