Fire Protection Products 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ $ Technical Data Sheet Product Description Product Features May / 2022 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ are a one-part, ready-to-use, intumescent wall-opening protective. When properly applied to the back of electrical outlet boxes, 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ help control the spread of fire, smoke and noxious gases through fire-restive walls and partitions. Installed in accordance with the UL wall-opening protective listing (UL Category CLIV), the product helps achieve up to 2-hour ratings in a variety of wall constructions. 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ can effectively provide protection for back-to-back metallic electrical boxes in certain configurations 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ are also used as a firestop material in through-penetration firestop systems. 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ help to maintain a firestop penetration seal for up to 4 hours. 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ exhibit excellent adhesion to a full range of construction substrates and penetrants. The pads are easily molded by hand (no mixing required). In addition to its fire-resistant properties, the 1/10th in. (2.54mm) thick pads have airborne sound reduction characteristics which helps minimize sound transmission through assemblies requiring an STC rating.            Applications Firestop tested up to 4 hours in accordance with ASTM E814 (UL 1479) & CAN/ULC-S115 Wall opening protective tested up to 2 hours in accordance with UL 263 Provides a draft and cold smoke seal Pliable and conformable – molds easily into required shape Helps reduce noise transfer – STC Rating of 62 when tested in STC 62 rated wall assembly Excellent adhesion Re-enterable/repairable Halogen-free and solvent-free Excellent aging properties Low VOC; complies with CDPH v1.2 to meet the intent of LEED v4.1 Will not dry out or crumble 4 in. x 8 in.

(241.3 x 241.3 mm), 9.0 in.3 (145.5 cm3), 7.6 oz (215 g) Preparatory Work: The surface of the electrical box, or opening and any penetrating items should be cleaned (i.e. free of dust, grease, oil, loose materials, rust or other substances) to allow for the proper adhesion of the 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pad MPP+. Ensure that the surfaces of the substrates are not wet and are frost-free. Installation Details: Electrical boxes must be firestopped under the following conditions: boxes larger than 16 sq. in. (103 sq. cm), if horizontal spacing between boxes is less than 24 in. (609.6mm), when multiple boxes are located in one stud cavity or if the aggregate of all boxes exceeds 100 sq. in. per 100 sq. ft. (645 sq. cm. per 9.29 sq. m) — refer to listed system details and applicable local building Page 2 of 4 3M Fire Protection Products 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ code requirements. For electrical box installations, a minimum of 1/10 in. (2.5mm) thick putty application is required. 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pads MPP+ are to be installed to completely cover the exterior of the outlet box (except for the side against the stud). To firestop penetrations, install the applicable depth of backing material (if required), remove the desired amount of putty from the pad, form (if necessary) and install as detailed within the listed system. Make sure that putty is in complete contact with the substrate and penetrating item(s). Note: Partial pads can be pieced together and the seams between partial pads should overlap a minimum of 1/8 in. with the seams worked with the fingertips to create adhesion at the seam. Limitations: Over application (i.e., using excessive amount of material) of product to vertical surfaces may cause sagging, follow system details. Product is not impaired by freezing but should be warmed to at least 32°F (0°C) before applying. Consult a 3M Authorized Fire Protection Products Distributor / Dealer or Sales Representative for Applicable UL, Intertek or other third-party drawings and system details. Maintenance No maintenance is expected when installed in accordance with the applicable UL, Intertek, FM or other third-party listed system. Once installed, if any section of the 3M™ Fire Barrier Moldable Putty Pad MPP+ is damaged, the following procedure will apply: remove damaged putty, clean the affected area and install the proper thickness of putty, ensuring it bonds to the substrate and adjacent putty (product from damaged area can be reused if it is free from contaminants). Putty can be molded together at new/existing putty overlap.
