Metallics WGR25 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Metallics WGR25 foam gasket fit a duplex receptacle or a toggle switch?
The WGR25 is the duplex receptacle cutout. Metallics makes the same insulating foam gasket in three designs: toggle switch, duplex receptacle, and GFI or Decora. If you're sealing switch boxes or Decora-style devices, you need the matching gasket, not this one.
2) Do the Metallics WGR25 gaskets meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a public project?
Yes. The WGR25 insulating foam gaskets are flagged both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as the United States. That covers the usual documentation ask on federally funded school, municipal, and housing authority work.
3) How many gaskets come in a jar of Metallics WGR25?
Twenty-five gaskets per jar, and 25 each is the order minimum. For a property manager doing a whole building, that covers roughly one unit's worth of exterior-wall outlets, so plan multiple jars for a full retrofit.
4) What are these foam outlet gaskets actually for?
They go behind the cover plate on outlets and switches in exterior walls to stop air leaking through the device box. That air path is a real heat and cold loss point in older buildings, and a foam gasket is the cheapest fix on the list. They're also useful on blower door punch lists.
5) What material are the Metallics WGR25 gaskets made of, and are they UL rated?
Closed-cell polyethylene insulating foam, and Metallics states the foam is UL Rated. Closed cell means it won't wick moisture the way open-cell foam does behind an exterior wall plate.
6) Do I need to remove the receptacle to install a foam outlet gasket?
No. The gasket slips over the device once the cover plate screw is out, then the plate goes back on over it. Power off at the breaker, plate off, gasket on, plate back. The jar of 25 WGR25 gaskets is a fast pass through a unit with nothing but a screwdriver.
7) Can I get these Metallics insulating foam gaskets in other sizes or larger quantities?
Metallics states other sizes and quantities are available by request beyond the standard 25-count jar. Distributors and MRO buyers standardizing across a large portfolio should ask for the bulk configuration rather than ordering jars by the case.
8) How much does a jar of 25 Metallics WGR25 gaskets weigh and how big is the jar?
Light enough to stock deep on a van: 0.14 lbs, with jar dimensions of 4.5 x 4.5 x 7.25 inches. Easy to keep a few on the truck for turnovers and weatherization calls.
