Hayden All-Plastic Mounting...
$6.99
Product details
This is the rough-in backing plate that holds a central vacuum inlet valve square inside a 2x3 stud wall before drywall goes up, SKU 1044-00. It is molded entirely from plastic and finished in white.
The plate mounts between the studs and anchors the inlet's rough-in tubing, giving the installer a fixed, level surface to set the valve against once the wall is finished. Because it never touches airflow or debris, wear on this part comes from the framing and drywall work itself rather than from vacuum use. Central vacuum installers commonly pair a rough-in plate like this with a plaster guard, which keeps drywall compound and dust out of the opening until the wall is painted and the inlet valve is ready to go in.
- Part: All-plastic mounting plate
- Wall: 2x3 stud framing
- Finish: White
- Material: Plastic, resists rust
- Stage: Installed during rough-in, before drywall or plaster
Confirm your wall's stud spacing before ordering, since Hayden also sells a version of this plate sized for 2x4 framing that will not fit a narrower 2x3 cavity.
