The plate includes an integral gasket to prevent dust ingress and screw cap covers that hide the fixing points once the plate is mounted, giving a clean finish on the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential, commercial and healthcare installations, the blanking plate is used to seal off redundant socket positions after rewiring, to cover unused outlet boxes in new builds, or to temporarily cap back boxes during phased fit-outs. The thermoset construction is more impact-resistant than standard thermoplastic plates and carries a 25-year warranty against cracking or discolouration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white finish is an anti-microbial thermoset resin tested to ISO 22196:2011, which inhibits bacterial growth on the surface. This makes the plate particularly useful in kitchens, bathrooms, care homes and clinical environments where surface hygiene matters. The IP20 rating confirms protection against solid objects larger than 12.5mm but not against water ingress, so the plate is suitable for dry indoor locations only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThermoset resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnti-Microbial Properties\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3rd Party Tested to ISO 22196:2011\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_2001868_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/manual_1150486.pdf\" target=\"_self\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat back box does this fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plate fits any standard UK 1 gang 25mm back box with 60.3mm fixing centres.

The screw caps clip over the fixing screws and can be removed before painting around the plate.
