TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS LONG-TERM THERMAL PERFORMANCE: The system "R"-VALUE for Hail Guard was determined by the ASTM C-236 "Guarded Hot Box" method. Hail Guard products demonstrate no thermal drift with age. "R"-Values vary by profile as follows:
DENSITY:
Nominal 1.0 pound per cubic foot (test method ASTM C-303).
WATER PERMEABILITY:
Not less than 5.0 perm/inch maximum (test method ASTM E-96). Hail Guard
breathes and is not a vapor barrier.
WATER ABSORPTION:
Less than 4.0% by volume (test ASTM C-272).
FLAMMABILITY:
Hail Guard is fabricated from modified Expandable Polystyrene, which
is treated with a fire-retardant chemical and will not support
combustion. Although "Modified EPS" contains a flame retardant agent, it
is an organic material and should therefore be considered flammable if exposed
to an open flame or ignition source.
CAPILLARITY:
None.
DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCES:
Thickness: + OR - 1/32"
Width:
+ or - 1/16"
Length:
+ or - 3/16"
TESTED AND PROVEN: Hail Guard meets or exceeds all the requirements of SPI specification ASTM C-578-95 (Type 1) and is recommended to be used with vinyl siding meeting VSI specification ASTM D-3679-96 standards. WARRANTY: The
structural integrity and thermal performance of Hail Guard is double
backed by a lifetime warranty.
SAFE TO USE: Hail
Guard products are environmentally friendly and fully recyclable. They
are constructed from inert organic materials and contain no CFCs, HCFCs or
Formaldehyde.
THERMAL EXPANSION:
Hail Guard is very compatible with vinyl siding due to their nearly
identical coefficients of expansion and contraction. Hail Guard's
coefficient of thermal expansion is .000035 in./in./degree F. Vinyl
siding will range from .000031 to .000036 in./in./degree F.
PATENTED:
Hail Guard is protected by U.S. patent #4,506,486. Anyone
manufacturing or selling this product without prior written approval from
Progressive Foam Products, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
