SpecSeal Series 44+ EZ Path Single Split Retrofit Plate

The EZ Path Retrofit Device is designed to restore the ratings for overfilled cable sleeve penetrations. The device features a built-in fire and smoke sealing system that can attach either to the sleeve or the barrier surface.

The EZ Path Retrofit Device consists of a heavy gauge galvanized steel housing containing intumescent materials that expand rapidly when exposed to fire or high temperatures to close off the void area. Its unique two-piece design quickly installs around cable bundles and extended sleeves and can even accommodate standard conduit bushings. The square device shape allows cable exit or entry from multiple directions.

Applications

• Cables
• Cable Tray

EZ Path Retrofit Device restores non-compliant overfilled sleeve conditions in walls and floors. Cable capacity ranges from 50 to 100% visual fill. The two piece split device facilitates installation around existing cable bundles. The steel backplate attaches directly to the end of the steel sleeve. For flush-mounted sleeves, mounting tabs allow for attachment to the substrate.
