Expanding Foam Kits comprises two pressurised tanks, linked by hoses, to a dispensing gun. When the contents of the two tanks are dispensed, they chemically react to produce a froth-like substance, which quickly expands to about three to five times the dispensed volume. The foam solidifies in about 60 seconds and fully cures into a solid permanent structure in approximately five minutes. Cured foam resists moisture, insulates, dampens noise, adds structural support, provides an air-seal and fills voids.
Expanding Foam Kits is the best form of insulation available, because of its closed compact cellular structure.
Spray DIY Foam Kits onto any clean, dry surface in any direction to insulate, fill and seal various size voids, dampen sound or reduce vibration. It is specifically designed to spray onto flat or irregular surfaces, and to fill large cavities.
Expanding Foam Kits 'Quick Cure' fully expands and dries tack-free within seconds. Cut able in 2-5 minutes.
Insulation Spray Foam - Two-component foam systems expand with approximately an 8-to-1 ratio, and cure to a semi-rigid closed cell foam upon the chemical reaction of component A (a polymeric isocyanate) with component B (a polyol blend containing certain additives).
DIY Spray Foam adheres to almost all building materials with the exception of surfaces such as polyethylene, Teflon®, silicone, oils and greases, mould release agents, and similar materials.
Optimal application temperature is 24°C (75°F) but may be sprayed onto colder or warmer substrates, with slight effects on the foam characteristics. Cured foam is resistant to heat and cold, -129°C to +93°C (-200°F to +200°F), and to aging, but not UV rays unless painted, covered or coated. Cured foam is also chemically inert and non-reactive in approved applications.
Our Expanding Foam Kit systems require no outside mechanical or electrical power source and are disposable & refillable. Handi-Foam® is available in various kit sizes to meet specific job application requirements. When sprayed, the foam will create a seamless, continuous seal to insulate and protect against dust, air infiltration, pests, etc.
