HANDI-FOAM ONE COMPONENT STRAW FOAM INSULATION

Handi-Foam® One-Component Foam is a UL/ULC classified sealant.  It can be used to economically insulate, seal, bond, fill and stop air infiltration.  One-Component foams cure when moisture in the air reacts with the chemistry of the foam.  All one-component foams meet ASTM E-84 flame spread requirements for caulks and sealants. Handi-Foam One-Component Foam is tack-free in less than 10 minutes and cures within 24 hours.  Handi-Foam One-Component Foams cure to in-place densities between 1.0 and 2.0 lb. per cubic foot (16.02 - 32.04 kg. per cubic meter) and carry an R-value of 4 to 5 per inch (.03 w/m.k).  Cured foam can be trimmed, sanded and/or painted.

 

Typical applications include:

  • filling cracks and voids
  • sealing around HVAC units
  • filling gaps around pipes
  • filling gaps behind electrical outlets
  • sealing cracks at wall and floor joints
  • fixing small holes and other damage

HANDI-FOAM TWO COMPONENT FOAM INSULATION

Handi-Foam® Two-Component Foam is a chemically cured foam system.  Two-component foam systems consist of an “A” component and a “B” component.  These two components mix in the nozzle of the dispensing unit, and the resulting foam cures much more quickly than one-component foams.  Handi-Foam Two-component Foams are available in a variety of densities.  Handi-Foam Two-Component Foams expand at a ration of 8:1 and carries an R-Value of 6 to 7 per inch (.02 w/m.k).   Handi-Foam Two-Component Foam is tack free in less than 60 seconds and cures completely in 2-5 minutes.  Cured foam can be trimmed, sanded and/or painted.

Typical applications include:

  • insulating commercial & residential construction
  • filling openings in boats & trailers
  • converting vans & buses
  • cold storage warehouses
  • noise reduction
  • insulating spas & hot tubs
  • insulating transportation trailers
  • large surface coverage and large voids
  • pole & post settings
  • stage & set design

HANDI-FOAM SLOW RISE POUR IN PLACE FOAM INSULATION

Handi-Foam SR® Pour-In-Place Foam is a multi-purpose slow-rise polyurethane foam.  It is formulated to slowly rise and fill, insulating large enclosed spaces and blind cavities.  Handi-Foam SR Foam is a two component poured-in-place foam that cures tack-free in 60 to 90 seconds.  Handi -Foam SR is also available in disposable larger kits and refillable systems.

Typical applications include:

  • insulating refrigerated trailer floors and walls
  • strengthening vinyl and aluminum extensions
  • filling openings in boats and pontoons
  • filling blind cavities and narrow openings
