Loctite 1988753 TITE FOAM Insulating Foam Sealant is a one-component, self-expanding polyurethane foam that cures under the influence of moisture. It is extremely flammable and should not be used near sparks, heat, or open flame. Vapors will accumulate readily and may ignite explosively. Do not smoke or use matches/lighters while dispensing foam. The area should be well-ventilated.

Loctite 1988753 is ideal for sealing gaps and cracks around windows, doors, pipes, and other openings. It can also be used to fill voids and insulate attics and crawl spaces. The foam expands to fill gaps and cracks, creating a weather-tight seal that helps to reduce energy costs. It is also an excellent soundproofing material.
