Knauf Drywall - A Robust Drywall Time Saver
High on the list of time saving specialist products
from Knauf Drywall are Knauf Putty Pads – the easy
answer for reliable acoustic and fire protection of
electrical socket boxes in drywall partitions. Now also
with Robust Detail approval for use in plasterboard
separating walls on timber frames or steel studs, Knauf
Putty Pads can be used to preserve the integrity of
drywall construction around electrical service
penetrations in walls between dwellings.
 Knauf Putty Pads are sheets of intumescent, mouldable
putty in two sizes to fit inside or outside single and
double socket boxes in drywall constructions in all
residential and commercial applications. They are used
with plastic socket boxes to avoid the need for
traditional baffle boxes which are time consuming to
build and to fit. Knauf Putty Pads are so simple to use
that the installer can achieve full protection of a
socket in just two or three minutes – 25 minutes faster
than traditional methods. This means a single installer
can seal about 12 boxes an hour – against two
previously.
Paul Tollervey, Knauf Drywall Research and Development
Manager, says Knauf Putty Pads can maintain a fire
rating of up to two hours in drywall partitions, and an
acoustic rating of up to 60dB Rw. “The Robust Detail
approval means that builders can use Knauf Putty Pads in
specific plasterboard separating wall constructions
without needing pre-completion testing to prove
compliance with Part E of the Building Regulations,” he
says. “This underlines the importance of our efficient
time saving solutions for builders – and we are seeing a
significant increase in demand for Knauf Putty Pads as a
result.”
Knauf Putty Pads can be fitted inside socket boxes at
first or second fix, or on the outside at first fix.
Cables are passed through the pad which is then pressed
firmly to the box to ensure adhesion and closure of any
gaps. Knauf Putty Pads are available from builders
merchants in boxes of 20. They are 3.5mm thick and are
180 x 130mm or 230 x 230mm with easy-peel protective
paper on both sides.
Knauf Drywall manufactures a full range of plasters,
plasterboards, insulating laminates, drywall
accessories, metal sections and steel building systems,
for domestic and commercial applications. Recently Knauf
Drywall introduced the UK industry’s first carbon
neutral plasterboard, Knauf Futurepanel. Knauf Drywall
also actively promotes recycling from building sites and
has a zero waste policy in its energy efficient
factories at Sittingbourne in Kent and Immingham on
Humberside.
