3. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
FROTH-PAK
™
Foam Sealant is a two-
component, quick-cure polyurethane foam
that fills cavities, penetrations and cracks.
FROTH-PAK
™
Foam Sealant is a chemically
cured foam, significantly reducing curing
time. It dispenses, expands and becomes tack-
free in seconds. The product will skin over in
30–40 seconds and will cure in minutes.*
(1)
The theoretical yield has become an industry standard for identifying certain sizes of two-component kits. Theoretical yield calculations are performed in perfect laboratory
conditions, without taking into account the loss of blowing agent or the variations in application methods and types.
* Actual cure time will depend on temperature, foam thickness, the specific nozzle used, etc.
** For rim/band joist applications, use FROTHPAK™ Foam Insulation (available in U.S. only) to meet building code specifications.

Basic Use
FROTH-PAK
™
Foam Sealant can be used in
interior or exterior commercial, residential,
agricultural, industrial and institutional
settings.** If used in an exterior setting, a
coating must be applied for ultraviolet (UV)
protection.
Typical commercial applications include
spray polyurethane foam roof repair and
sealing roof perimeters and parapet walls.
Residential uses include:
•Roofandwalljunctions
•Wallandatticpenetrations
•Electrical,mechanicaland
plumbing penetrations
•Othergaps,cracksorcrevicesinthe
building envelope
Sizes
FROTH-PAK
™
Foam Sealant is typically sold
as a complete kit that includes pressurized
“A” and “B” cylinders, plus dispensing gun/
hose assembly and accessories. FROTH-PAK
™
Foam Sealant is also available in refillable,
returnable tanks for applications requiring a
large amount of foam, such as poultry houses.
See Table 1 for size and yield information.
