Ditto for the firestop putty.

This is good to about 600 deg F, intermittently.

F. It handles and cures like silicon sealant and is very tough. It is particularly good for filling relatively large openings on the firewall, such as flange openings around the edges, sealing around thru-FW wire bundle openings, etc. Available at ACS, p/n 05-00949.

Ron ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 08:50:36 AM PST US From: "Bill Hibbing" Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Fire-Putty/ Sealant The 3M 2500 firebarrier caulk is available at Home Depot for about half the price that ACS sells it for. It's sometimes found in the paint department and sometimes very well hidden in the electrical dept. Last time I bought some there it was about $13.00. Most Home Depots have it.
