Overview

The RACO 2710 Cable Protector Plate is designed to safeguard wires running through wood studs during framing, remodeling, or retrofit work. Its compact 2-9/16 inch length and 1-1/2 inch width fit neatly within typical stud bays, helping you route wiring with confidence while keeping wall lines clean.

Materials and build

  • Pre-galvanized steel, .0625 inch thick, for enhanced corrosion resistance in framing environments.
  • No additional hardware required—position the plate and hammer down the integrated spurs for secure placement.
  • 1/2 inch integral spikes mount directly to the wood stud, simplifying installation.
  • Designed to shield NMSC or raceway wires from accidental nail, screw, or drill penetrations.

Key benefits

  • Corrosion-resistant construction helps maintain protection over time.
  • Fast, hardware-free installation supports quicker framing and retrofit workflows.
  • Secure mounting to studs minimizes shifting during drywall work or paint prep.
  • Dedicated protection for through-stud wiring reduces risk of accidental damage in busy construction sites.

Installation at a glance

With no screws or brackets to chase, you can position the plate and drive the spikes to anchor it in place. The plate remains stable as wires are threaded through the stud cavity, allowing for a tidy, safe run.

Specifications

  • Long: 2-9/16 inches
  • Wide: 1-1/2 inches
  • Material: pre-galvanized steel, 0.0625 inch thick

Real-world uses

Ideal for electrical, data, or AV wiring in new builds or renovations where studs are exposed. The plate helps you maintain wall integrity while routing cables behind drywall and across framing members.
