Its non-toxic, non-corrosive formula makes it safe for use with sensitive electrical components and a wide range of materials including metal, wood, masonry, and plastic. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications, this duct seal helps prevent drafts, moisture intrusion, and pest entry—while maintaining a clean, professional finish that can be painted immediately after use. Review: Really great to use to seal outside ducting - Great product for outside ducting. I had a new HVAC system put in, and I had to get new refrigerant lines put in as well. Metal cover/ducting was put over the lines down the side of the house. I wanted to better seal the bottom of the ducting. This product is like a sticky and slightly tougher playdoh. You can shape it, and pull pieces apart to fit any space. I suspect that this 1 lb unit can easily cover up to 1/2 square foot of space. Some advice: 1. Remove the internal plastic cover -- it's tricky, as it rips easily. I ended up with pieces of it embedded. 2. Use a knife to cut pieces off -- you can rip them off, but it does leave a ragged "edge" that needs to be re-shapped. Overall, great product for the price! Review: Stops pellets dead - I use this to line my pellet traps. I only shoot .177 and .22 cal so 3/4 of an inch is enough to stop the pellets dead in their tracks. (I always use a steel plate backer just in case). I have put 10s of 1000s of pellets into my current trap with not a single pass through, I got this pack to make an indoor trap and it has worked exactly as I intended. This putty sticks amazing and never slouches or releases from my backer. If your building an airguns- pellet trap this is the stuff you want. The only maintenance I do with this is once a year I pick out as many pellets I can and then re-flatten any areas that need it. It helps if it is warmer (the putty is easier to work) and I wear nitrile gloves but that's it for maintaining. ## Features - Air & Moisture Seal: Creates a durable barrier that blocks air leaks, moisture, dust, and drafts around electrical boxes, conduit, and wall penetrations - Permanently Soft & Easy to Mold: Putty-like consistency stays flexible over time-won't harden, crack, or shrink, making it easy to apply, remove, and rework as needed - Safe & Non-Corrosive: Formulated to be safe for use around plastics and metals-won't corrode wiring or damage surfaces - Multi-Surface Versatility: Adheres to metal, masonry, wood, and plastic for electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and general sealing applications - Paintable & Jobsite Ready: Can be painted immediately after application for a clean finish-suitable for visible installations - Weatherproof Protection: Provides reliable outdoor and indoor performance by preventing drafts and moisture intrusion through sealed penetrations - Convenient 1 lb Block Size: Comes in a ready-to-use 1 lb block format that provides ample material for multiple sealing projects and applications ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003MZK122 | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,417 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #4 in HVAC Ducting | | Brand | Ideal Industries | | Brand Name | Ideal Industries | | Color | Black | | Compatible Material | Metal, Plastic, Rubber | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 731 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00783250316014 | | Included Components | Duct Seal | | Item Dimensions | 8 x 4 x 2 inches | | Item Form | Putty | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 8 x 4 x 2 inches | | Manufacturer | IDEAL | | Material | Aluminum , Rubber | | Material Type | Aluminum, Rubber | | Model | 31-601 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | 31-601 | | Style | Compact | | Style Name | Compact | | Supported Standards | UL | | Surface Recommendation | Metal | | UPC | 013227238897 783250316014 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Ideal Industries - **Item Weight:** 16 ounces - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 8 x 4 x 2 inches - **Material:** Aluminum, Rubber - **Style:** Compact ## Images ![IDEAL Industries 31-601 Duct Seal Compound, 1 lb Block, Gray Putty for Sealing Junction Boxes, Service Entrances & HVAC Penetrations - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718Bc2LOwaL.jpg) ![IDEAL Industries 31-601 Duct Seal Compound, 1 lb Block, Gray Putty for Sealing Junction Boxes, Service Entrances & HVAC Penetrations - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/614b6FdNhzL.jpg) ![IDEAL Industries 31-601 Duct Seal Compound, 1 lb Block, Gray Putty for Sealing Junction Boxes, Service Entrances & HVAC Penetrations - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/614e+i+Cd9L.jpg) ![IDEAL Industries 31-601 Duct Seal Compound, 1 lb Block, Gray Putty for Sealing Junction Boxes, Service Entrances & HVAC Penetrations - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tQVNGiU-L.jpg) ![IDEAL Industries 31-601 Duct Seal Compound, 1 lb Block, Gray Putty for Sealing Junction Boxes, Service Entrances & HVAC Penetrations - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Czrtd0kiL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: does this have a adhesive on the back?** A: No, this is like play dough.
