GREAT STUFF Window & Door

GREAT STUFF™ is setting the standard on how windows and doors should be installed. GREAT STUFF™ Window & Door Insulating Foam Sealant is exclusively formulated to air-seal the gap between a window or door frame and its rough opening. All GREAT STUFF™ products are polyurethane-based and offer superior performance advantages over latex products.

Proprietary low-pressure formula guaranteed not to bow or bend window and door frames. Ideal for filling or sealing other areas where low-pressure flexible foam is desirable.
Forms a durable, airtight and water-resistant bond.
Quick cure time. Tack free in eight minutes, trims within one hour.
Paintable, sandable and stainable.
Repels/deflects water.
Conforms to ASTM & AAMA standards.
Affordable price point. One 12 oz. can of Window & Door foams up to four to six average sized residential windows (36" x 60", 3/8" wide gap, and 1" deep).
One 12 oz. can equals 6 quart tubes of caulk.
Provides real insulation value which complements energy efficiency of the window or door. Greater R-value than chinked fiberglass or caulk.
Flexible yellow foam permits expansion and contraction.
Soft, pliable foam is forgiving, easier to remove if gap is overfilled. Cured foam can be stuffed back into the gap without trimming.

GREAT STUFF™ Window & Door meets or exceeds all industry standards for the installation of exterior windows, doors and skylights.

Differences Between Latex and Polyurethane Foam Sealant

There are two key differences between latex foam and GREAT STUFF™ polyurethane foam sealant:

Latex foams are typically "open cell" and, as a result, can take on water. In fact, the same properties that allow you to wash latex foam off your hands with water also mean that the cured foam can absorb water. This can cause wood rot or deterioration in areas where wet latex foam is next to wood, such as a window frame. In contrast, GREAT STUFF™ is a closed-cell foam. It forms a water-resistant outer skin when cured.
Latex foam does not expand. GREAT STUFF™ expands to thoroughly fill all voids and cavities making it an ideal air sealant.
