The kits can be mounted onto concrete forms using conventional methods outlined

"Our continuing quest is to provide products that help to reduce installation time," said Caitlin Krc, Product Manager at RectorSeal. "It's one reason why our tub box components are designed to be cast directly into the concrete to form an embedded intumescent service supply." UL® classifies Cast-In-Place Tub Box as a firestop device. The Tub Box kits are suitable for both plastic and metal drain pipes.

Standard features of the Metacaulk tub box kits include a crush-resistant, small-footprint design, alignment stubs, height marking identification, and more. The kits can be mounted onto concrete forms using conventional methods outlined in the installation instructions.
