Questions and Answers

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1.How does the Sika Sikaseal 632 Firespan Socket Pad enhance fire safety? These Pads use advanced intumescent technology to expand and seal gaps around electrical sockets and switch boxes when exposed to high temperatures.This expansion creates a fire-resistant barrier, preventing the spread of flames and smoke through vulnerable wall openings.By maintaining the fire integrity of partition walls, these pads play a critical role in containing fire and limiting property damage or injury in the event of a fire.

2.Are these pads suitable for irregular or custom-sized electrical sockets? Yes, the pads are designed with flexibility in mind and can be trimmed to fit irregular or non-standard socket sizes.Using a sharp blade or scissors, you can easily adjust the pad dimensions to ensure complete coverage of the socket or switch box.However, it's important to ensure the pad remains securely adhered and fully seals all potential gaps to achieve maximum fire protection.The standard sizes fit singles and double back boxes.

3.Can these socket pads be installed in both new builds and retrofitted into existing walls? Absolutely.These pads are versatile and can be used in both new construction projects and retrofitting applications.For new builds, the pads can be installed as part of the initial fireproofing measures during wall construction.In existing walls, they can be fitted by carefully accessing the electrical sockets and applying the pads inside or over the back of the box.Proper installation ensures compliance with fire safety regulations in both scenarios.

4.How do I ensure the pads provide optimal fire protection after installation? To achieve optimal fire protection, ensure the socket pads are securely adhered to the surface and cover all potential gaps around the socket or switch box.It’s critical to press the self-adhesive pad firmly into place to prevent peeling or loosening over time.Additionally, regular inspections as part of your building’s fire safety maintenance plan are essential to verify that the pads are intact and functioning as intended.Damaged or partially detached pads should be promptly replaced to maintain fire safety compliance.
