Key Installation Points

  • For good adhesion the surfaces of the building elements shall be free of any dust or grease and may need to be primed. On good, clean virgin concrete & masonry, no priming required. Do not apply to damp surfaces.

  • Ensure that the aperture and services in question are tested with FSPG Putty and the site conditions are within the application specification.

  • FSPG Putty fit either internally or externally on the back of electrical boxes.

  • When using internally mould the pad to the shape of the box then press down firmly into the box working into the back and corners ensuring that FSPG Putty is firmly pressed into place. Press the edges of the pad together to form a continuous seal inide the box. Ensure the edges are brought firmly together to ensure complete coverage.

  • When using externally, mould the pad around the back and sides of the socket overlapping onto the substrate and by pressing firmly to ensure that the FSPG Putty are in place. Press the edges of the pad together to form a continuous seal around the box. Ensure the edges are brought firmly together to ensure complete coverage.

  • Ensure FSPG Putty is installed minimum 2mm thickness.

  • Ensure FSPG Putty is tightly moulded around electrical wiring passing into the socket or from out of the socket if external application.

  • The FSPG Putty must be installed to ensure complete airtight seal.
