RectorSeal releases Draft-Block Orange, a fire-blocking expanding polyurethane foam sealant more cost-effective than standard fibreglass and caulks

RectorSeal, Houston, a leading manufacturer of quality HVAC/R and plumbing tools and accessories, and a wholly owned subsidiary of CSW Industrials, Inc. [NASDAQ: CSWI], has introduced Draft-Block Orange, a fire-blocking expanding polyurethane foam sealant for use by trade professionals across North America.

Designed for Type V residential construction, Draft-Block Orange is an excellent filler that expands up to three times to fill, bond and insulate a wide assortment of applications. As a low pressure, one-component product, it adheres readily to wood, glass, metal, tile, concrete and most plastics. Beyond its fire-blocking benefits, Draft-Block Orange helps to reduce sound transmission.

Available in a 12oz aerosol can, Draft-Block Orange fills voids, cracks, crevices and small cavities on flat and irregular surfaces. After curing, Draft-Block Orange is an odourless, non-corrosive, non-reactive, inert substance.

As indicated in the product name, its orange colour makes it easily identifiable during use. As a polyurethane foam, Draft-Block Orange is completely dielectric and contains no urea or formaldehyde. When properly applied, Draft-Block Orange dries tack-free in approximately 5 minutes. It is cuttable within 1 hour and fully cured within 12–24 hours. When fully cured, Draft-Block Orange is resistant to water and outdoor exposure. The product adheres to UL evaluation report R40378-01 and achieves an ASTM E84 rating.

Draft-Block Orange offers outstanding performance when used in voids around plumbing and utility penetrations to stop drafts and prevent the intrusion of insects and other pests. Additional use includes sealing around windows, air conditioners, ducts and vents, and providing energy-saving features in heating and cooling installations. Draft-Block Orange can help seal voids in siding, door jams, foundations and concrete joints.

Since 1937, RectorSeal has offered products that have built a steadily growing and loyal following among contractors due to differentiated and proven product performance. Further, the company is often the first to tackle and solve challenges faced by professional tradespeople.
