Fire resistant Downpipe plugs

General Description

A roof gutter plug manufactured with an SE 444 closed cell rubber by Gardiner Australia. It has an eyebolt in the centre.

The product

Designed to seal the roof gutter so they can be filled with water to help protect the roof from embers in bushfire events. They are easy to install and easy to remove via the central eyebolt.

The advantage of this is these plugs will not be distorted or melted by oncoming heat that often precedes the arriving fire front, so the water in your gutter will not drain away.
