TC-417-GP Thermal and Acoustic Solutions
Technical Support Specifications Guide

Spray-In-Place Thermal and Acoustic Insulation (Divisions 7, 9)

PRODUCT NAME
TC-417 GP (general purpose) spray applied fibreglass insulation system.

1. MANUFACTURER
TC-417 GP is a two-component product manufactured by ThermaCoustic Industries International Limited.  The components of TC-417 GP are supplied to trained, approved Applicators who complete on-site manufacturing during installation.
2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Usage
TC-417 GP is a general-purpose system designed to meet a variety of thermal and acoustic needs in the industrial, commercial and multi-family construction sectors.
2.2 Materials
TC-417 GP is a two component system.  The components are:
  1. Fine, white glass fibres containing at least 25% recycled raw material;
  2. A formulated synthetic emulsion adhesive that is non-hazardous.
These components are combined on the site to produce an inorganic, non-combustible, non-toxic, odourless and long-lasting bright white installation.
2.3 Applications
When sprayed into place, TC-417 GP forms a mono-lithic, somewhat resilient and flexible blanket that bonds easily to concrete, clean steel, aluminium, wood, gypsum board, rigid fibreglass and plastic in-sulation materials.  It conforms closely to surface ir-regularities and virtually eliminates convective air circulation to the substrate.
2.4 Limitations
TC-417 GP is normally applied to any surface in a one-pass application.  If a thickness greater than those listed below is required, please contact Ther-maCoustic Industries for advice.
  1. Maximum thickness on overhead surface without mechanical support is 125mm (5");
  2. Maximum thickness on vertical surface without mechanical support is 175mm (7");
 
2.4 Limitations (continued)
  1. Raw wood must be sealed with an appropriate sealer, or with a coat of TC-417 GP adhesive that is allowed to dry thoroughly, before fibre in-stallation is undertaken;
  2. WARNING:  Steel decks must be free of all petroleum-based materials before TC-417 GP is installed.  In addition, some steel decking is so smooth that an appropriate metal primer should be applied first to allow secure adhesion of the TC-417 GP.  If in doubt concerning a steel deck, please contact us for technical advice;
  3. Adhesive must be kept from freezing;
  4. Do not apply TC-417 GP at temperatures below 4 0C (40 0F) or when temperatures during curing time will fall below the limit unless heating of substrate and ambient air is supplied and both heat and adequate ventilation are maintained throughout the curing period;
  5. Store TC-417 GP components in a cool, dry lo-cation and above ground level.
