Description
BIOSTOP® Firestop Gasket is a single component fire rated gasket for use with electrical boxes when addressing the "24 inch rule". It is mounted on the inside of the cover plate and installed at the same time as the cover plate, covering the opening and providing the necessary fire protection. When exposed to heat, BIOSTOP® Firestop Gasket's highly intumescent nature causes it to expand forming a char that will seal off the opening and prevent the spread of flames and limit the temperature rise on the unexposed surfaces. BIOSTOP® Firestop Gasket is applied by hand, does not take up volume in the electrical box and is a labor saving replacement for putty pads in normal applications. Patent Pending.
