Handi-Foam E-84 Class 1 systems are two-component, chemically
cured foam systems. Two-Component foam systems consist of an "A" side
and a "B" side. 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 Foam expands at a ratio of 8:1 and carries an R-Value
of 6 to 7 per inch (2.54cm). Cured foam can be trimmed, sanded and/or painted.

A Brief Review of Fire Rated Products
Fomo manufactures numerous flame rated polyeurethane products. A flame rated foam product passes fire test procedures developed by accredited organizations such as ASTM (American Society for Testing Materials) or UL(Underwriters Labratories.)
Since polyurethane is an organic material and like other organic building materials,
it will burn.
Therefore, all of the appropriate test methods developed to rate
PU foam consist of the application of an open flame to the PU sample, and the
subsequent measurement of how far the flame spreads across the sample.
Some
of these tests require that the amount of combustion smoke generated be measured
along with the flame spread. One especially difficult test, ASTM E-162, combines
an open flame with a radiant heat source.
