With these additions to the HoldRite portfolio, RWC is investing in innovations to create efficient and cost-effective solutions.

Where the previous model was only compatible with 2-inch firestopping sleeves, this model is compatible with 2-inch and 3-inch sleeves.

With the addition of the new products, RWC extends its track record of successfully solving challenges for contractors.

Preventing costly repairs and job delays
Typically, after concrete is poured, PEX and conduit tubing stub-ups are at risk of damage. To prevent costly repairs and job delays, RWC created the HoldRite 703 In-slab Tubing Support to help protect PEX and conduit in concrete, making stub-up plumbing and electrical installations easier. It also includes a protective cover plate and the HoldRite patented locator whiskers, providing a simple and faster way to find buried tubing after a concrete pour.

New innovations in firestopping needs
Since the introduction of the HoldRite HydroFlame Pro Series sleeves, RWC has continued to advance category growth to create complete firestopping solutions. The sleeves’ patented telescoping design eliminates cutting on the job site, and the patented locator whiskers take the hassle out of finding buried sleeves after a concrete pour. In addition to protecting against the spread of fire, smoke and gases, the sleeves also have a built-in W-rated water seal to prevent unwanted water intrusion.

Additionally, changes were made to the HydroFlame Pro Tub Box, which is intended to encompass a broader range of exotic drain and tub designs. Thanks to its new knock-out positions, there is no need for extensions, couplers or field modification positions. In this model, there is more flexibility available to the contractor when laying out the tub and drain. This provides more annular space for tight fits when layouts and spacing become an issue.

“Customers know and embrace the value and advantages of using HoldRite’s HydroFlame products for tubing support and firestopping needs,” said Jeff Hamilton, RWC’s HoldRite HydroFlame Product Manager. “We are constantly brainstorming to optimize products and bring forth new solutions that enable better ways of working to the market.”
