Product catalog summary
Overview
The Foam Tester is a crucial tool in the roofing industry for validating the strength and quality of polyurethane foam, particularly spray-applied polyurethane foam (SPF). It helps identify improperly installed foam and ensures accurate strength measurements.

Key Features
  • Tests compressive yield strength of foam.
  • Validates the quality of SPF.
  • Portable and designed for field use, reducing downtime and costs associated with laboratory testing.

Components
  • Standard Kit: Includes a pull tester with a calibrated gauge (400lb, analog or digital) and a foam compression fixture.
  • Deluxe Kit: Adds a foam core cutter and a single arm crank with a rotating handle for quicker testing.

Foam Core Cutter
Specially designed to cut foam samples with an area of 4in² (2.25in diameter), facilitating easy and quick sample preparation.

Testing Procedure
The foam sample is placed between two compression platens. A direct compression load is applied using the hand crank of the pull-out tester, and the compressive force is displayed on the readout gauge.

Compliance and Validation
The Foam Tester has been validated in the laboratory to ensure consistency with ASTM procedures.

The Deluxe Foam Tester is an essential tool in roofing industries, where it is important to validate and obtain accurate stengths of polyurethane foam, and check for improperly installed foam. This dedicated kit comes with a full range of accessories: - A Pull tester (with its calibrated gauge 400lb, analog or digital) - Foam compression fixture - Foam core cutter - Single arm crank with rotating handle The Foam application concept involves terminology that is a little different from normal fastener tester language. Foam Tester, is based on the principle of compression. During the installation or inspection on spray applied polyurethane foam (SPF), several possibilities/approaches can be considered; but with its Foam Tester Com-Ten Industries proposes to you the most cost and time efficient solution to perform the measurement in situ. The Foam Portable Tester has been designed by Com-Ten Industries for your quality test on spray applied polyurethane foam (SPF). It allows you to evaluate easily on the field the quality of the foam sample. With our foam tester, there is no more downtime waiting for laboratory results; do it yourself saving time and money.

Foam compression tester-2

Specially designed foam core cutter to cut foam samples with an area of 4in² (2.25in diameter). It makes the things easy and quick when it is time to take a sample of the foam. The foam sample is positioned in between two compression platens. The compression fixture is attached to a standard pull-out tester. A direct compression load is applied to the foam sample using the hand crank of the pull-out tester. The compressive force is displayed and registered on the readout gauge.
