Auralex Flame Tech Putty Pads – Fire-Rated Acoustical Outlet Seal

Protect your space and enhance your sound isolation with Auralex Flame Tech Putty Pads. Electrical outlets and switch boxes are notorious "weak links" in soundproof walls, allowing both noise and fire to pass through easily. Flame Tech Putty Pads provide a professional-grade solution by sealing these penetrations with a high-performance, intumescent material.

These non-hardening pads are designed to be wrapped around the exterior of electrical boxes. In the event of a fire, the material expands to create a robust char seal, maintaining the fire-resistance rating of the wall. Simultaneously, their dense, flexible composition acts as an acoustical gasket, blocking sound leaks and significantly improving the overall STC (Sound Transmission Class) of your room.

• Dual-Purpose Protection: Provides essential fire-stopping capabilities while significantly reducing sound transmission through wall penetrations.

• Intumescent Technology: Expands when exposed to heat to prevent the spread of fire, smoke, and toxic gases.

• Easy Application: Flexible, non-hardening putty easily molds around standard electrical boxes without the need for special tools.

• Acoustical Integrity: Seals air gaps around outlets to prevent "flanking" noise from compromising your studio or theater isolation.

• Code Compliant: Helps maintain the fire rating of 1- and 2-hour fire-rated gypsum board walls.

• Long-Lasting Performance: Remains flexible over time, ensuring a permanent seal that won't crack or shrink.
