> Product Description
Astro PFP FR Putty seal is an easy to apply fire and sound rated sealant supplied as a non-setting putty. The putty is hand workable, reusable and re-serviceable due to its non-setting properties. The putty is manufactured and supplied in different shapes and forms for different applications.
Putty Pads for sockets
When electrical sockets and switches are installed in dry lining partitions, the original fire rating of the partition is compromised. Fitting Putty Pads will reinstate the fire rating of the partition for up to 90 minutes (depending on the partition fire rating) preventing the passage of smoke, flames, sound and air through the electrical socket.
Putty Cords for fire sealing services
The putty chord is designed to seal small gaps (0-10mm wide) around service penetrations where it is difficult to use traditional intumescent sealant and backers in terms of access and maintaining correct depths of seal.
Putty Pads for water supply boxes
When tap water wall boxes are installed in dry lining partitions, the original fire rating of the partition is compromised. Fitting Putty Pads will will reinstate the fire rating of the partition for up to 90 minutes (depending on the partition fire rating) preventing the passage of smoke, flames, sound and air through the electrical socket.
