FOAM-iT!

SMFOAMIT

Smooth-On FOAM-iT! series 

Castable Rigid Urethane Foam. They are easy to use expanding foams that cure rigid and strong. They can be used as a lightweight casting material, backfill material for encapsulation or to make hollow castings.
You can color them with SO-Strong, UVO
or Ignite colorants for a variety of art/craft, industrial or special effects applications.

Most feature an easy to use 1:1 mix ratio by volume and cure at room temperature.

FOAM-iT™ castable urethane foams will expand many times their original volume when mixed and poured.

Available in Different Densities:

FOAM‑iT! 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 15 and 26 are expanding water blown polyurethane foams in 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 15 and 26 pound densities.

FOAM‑iT! 4 Black is a pre-pigmented deep black color rigid foam with an approximate expansion of 14 times its original volume. Lightweight and economical.

FOAM‑iT! 8 This castable foam is self-skinning with a finer, more uniform cell structure for better reproduction of surface detail. It also machines more accurately and is often used by industrial companies for making custom shaped tooling boards. It is bright white, measured and mixed 2A:1B by weight.

FOAM‑iT! 10 SLOW is designed for large-pour applications. Product testing done by the US Military proved that a combination of FOAM‑iT! 10 SLOW and Ultra-Fast Setting Concrete successfully shortened a multi-day repair process to a matter of hours. Thousands of pounds of FOAM-iT!™ are meter mixed on-site and dispensed in minutes.

APPLYING A RELEASE AGENT - Urethane foams are adhesive and will stick / bond to many surfaces. We recommend Ease Release 2831 to release urethane foam from most surfaces. If the release application is particularly difficult (example; releasing urethane foam from urethane rubber), we recommend an application of Universal Mold Release followed by an application of Ease Release 2831.

WARNING: Do not use Universal Mold Release by itself, or any other silicone based release agents. This will collapse the foam.
