MD STI FireStop Ring for Ce...

$31.08

Product details

Cutting a pipe through a fire-rated wall or floor opens a gap the assembly was not designed to have, and a firestop ring is what closes it back up. Part 513FK is the STI ring stocked for central vacuum tubing, and MD describes it as a product STI designed for the central vacuum trade specifically rather than adapted from general plumbing hardware.

Vacuum pipe meets a rated assembly most often at a garage firewall, and between floors in multi-unit buildings. Whether a ring is required at any particular penetration is a matter for the local inspector and the installer, and it is not something a product page can settle for a given job.

MD sells a second approach to the garage crossing as well: a 2 by 6 inch steel firewall section, part 523S, joined to standard PVC vacuum pipe with cement and couplings on either side. Keeping the packaging, or a photo of the ring seated before the wall closes, helps if an inspector later asks which product went in.
