Armatherm™ 500 Structural Thermal Break Material

Reducing heat flow within a building’s thermal envelope reduces energy consumption as well as potential condensation issues. This structural thermal break connection plate significantly reduces energy lost from thermal bridging in building envelope connections. It is a high strength, polyurethane material made in several densities to support a wide range of loading conditions. Due to it’s closed cell structure, it does not absorb water or moisture and has limited creep under continuous load.

Features and benefits:

• Exceptional insulator.
• High compressive strength, allowing it to be employed supporting large compressive loads with little deflection.
• Offers economical, code-required compliance for cold room column base applications.
• Reduces energy consumption and potential condensation issues.
• Can support and transfer loads up to 17.2 N/mm² while providing minimal energy loss.
• Thermal break material is available in multiple thicknesses and can be bonded to create increased thicknesses to achieve a specific R value.
• Manufactured from ultra-high density rigid polyurethane blocks.
