Metacaulk Pipe Collars Metacaulk Pipe Collars are prefabricated firestop devices designed for open and closed through-penetration firestop systems using 1-1/2 to 6 inch (38–152 mm) plastic pipes. They provide dependable fire protection by helping seal plastic pipe penetrations and limit the spread of flames, smoke, and heat through fire-rated assemblies. Featuring an easy lock mechanism and an efficient collar design, Metacaulk Pipe Collars simplify installation while reducing labor time and costs compared to traditional collar systems. They are designed for use with approved plastic pipe applications in fire-rated walls and floors. Key Features Prefabricated firestop collar for plastic pipe penetrations.

Key Benefits Reliable Fire Protection Metacaulk Pipe Collars expand when exposed to fire to help seal plastic pipe penetrations and maintain the integrity of fire-rated assemblies. Easy Installation The prefabricated design and easy lock mechanism allow for faster installation while reducing labor requirements. Versatile Compatibility Designed for use with multiple plastic pipe materials, including PVC, CPVC, ABS, PVC/ABS Foam Core, FRPP, PP, and approved PEX applications. Cost-Effective Performance The collar design reduces installation time and eliminates material measurement, helping lower overall installation costs. How to Use Surface Preparation Ensure the pipe penetration area is clean and free of dust, debris, and loose materials. Verify pipe type, size, and firestop system requirements before installation. Confirm compatibility with the rated wall or floor assembly. Application Instructions Select the correct Metacaulk Pipe Collar size for the pipe diameter. Place the collar around the plastic pipe penetration. Secure the collar using the built-in locking mechanism. Ensure proper positioning according to the approved firestop system. Verify installation meets applicable firestop requirements. Important Notes Install only according to tested and approved firestop systems. Follow manufacturer installation instructions and applicable building codes. Not intended for environments with long-term exposure to rainfall or saltwater spray. Verify compatibility with the specific pipe type and rated assembly.
