Designed to provide one-step firestopping for penetrations through fire-rated concrete floor assemblies, 3M™ Fire Barrier Cast-In Devices for Plastic Pipes are a proven alternative to core drilling holes. Installers simply attach the devices directly to floor decking, pour concrete around them and route penetrants after the concrete cures. Heights are adjustable in half-inch (13 mm) increments.
Easily adjust the height with only a pliers
Firestopping through concrete used to mean three things: pouring the concrete, core drilling holes, and firestopping later. Our 3M™ Fire Barrier Cast-In Devices for Plastic Pipes eliminate the time and expense of firestopping non-metallic penetrants using extra materials such as pipe devices, intumescent strips and caulk. This allows for a more secure, permanent firestop installation (PDF, 560 Kb) before concrete is poured. A series of built-in tear strips makes for fast, easy height adjustment in ½ inch increments: using only a pliers, installers can quickly adjust the height of the device from its maximum 8 inches (203.2 mm) to as low as 2-1/2 inches (57.2 mm). The device secures easily to floor decking, and its one-piece design withstands the everyday impact and wear of the construction site. Its white cap, easily visible after pour, signifies it as a pass-through device for non-metallic penetrants.
