Approved by Kingspan®
Approved by KINGSPAN® for bonding KoolTherm Insulation Panels.
TensorGrip® H45 has been developed to create high-performance bonds between KINGSPAN® KoolTherm Insulation Panels and metal ductwork or any other substrate in which KoolTherm is to be used.
This spray adhesive has very high tack, enabling users to bond KoolTherm successfully in the most demanding applications in which this type of insulation panel is used. Although the H45 has a very tacky nature, when the adhesive is cured, the bond line is extremely resilient and tough, ensuring lifelong performance.
The H45 sprays in a consistent web spray pattern, which is highly controllable when using the professional spray gun along with the Lechler tip.
Application Uses
H45 KoolTherm Panel HVAC & Insulation spray adhesive is designed for securing insulation panels in HVAC systems and other insulation applications.

Designed for
This spray adhesive has been designed for:
- Insulation
- Metal / Aluminium Sheeting
Environmentally Friendly
Additionally, the H45 KoolTherm Panel Spray Adhesive is designed with the environment in mind. Despite its robust performance, it has low VOC emissions and complies with all relevant safety and environmental regulations.
Reduced Overspray
User safety is of paramount importance to us. Hence, the adhesive is equipped with a specially designed nozzle that reduces overspray, helping to minimise waste and keep the application area clean.
High coverage
The adhesive formulation boasts high coverage and exceptional strength, enabling it to bond not only insulation panels but a wide range of construction materials, including concrete, brickwork, metals, and more. This makes the H45 an indispensable tool for both residential and commercial construction projects.
Canister Evacuation and Render Safe Procedure
Please use the following information when getting rid of an empty canister.
NOTE – Always direct the valve outlet away from the person during the following procedures
Step A. EVACUATION
- Ascertain from weight of canister whether empty of liquid residues
- If liquid residue is remaining, invert the canister and open the valve a minimal amount to allow gradual pressure release, leaving it inverted until all pressure is released. Once pressure appears to be released, keeping it inverted, gradually open the valve fully to ensure no blockage has occurred in the valve, and ascertain evacuation is complete.
- If empty of liquid, invert the canister and fully open the valve to release pressure, and ascertain evacuation is complete.
- Once empty then, proceed to part B to puncture them.
Step B. RENDER SAFE PUNCTURING
- Check, by feel, whether the canister contains liquid residues. If yes, take additional care to avoid spillage during the following operations.
- Place evacuated canister in fly press jaws. Base end forward.
- Close operator protective guard. The wind chisel points down until the canister is fully pierced, then up to release. Remove the canister from the fly press.
- Alternatively, using a nail punch, puncture the bung on the canister neck (see image below)
- If the canister contains liquid residues and is still pressurised, pierce the canister twice and then empty it into the appropriate bulk waste liquid container.
- Disposal via waste recycling provider.

Directions to use
This product is designed to be applied to two surfaces to be bonded together. Make sure that surfaces are clean, dry and free from dirt, dust, oil, loose paint, wax or grease, etc. For best results, the the temperature of the adhesive and the surfaces being bonded should be between 60 degrees F – 80 degrees F (16 degrees C – 27 degrees C).
Use with adequate ventilation. When possible we recommend shaking the canister well before using. Attach and secure the hose tightly onto the spray gun with the required tip. Attach the other end of the hose onto the canister. Make sure the hose-valve connections are securely tight. Open the valve on the canister slowly and fully, and check for leaks during this process. Unlock the trigger on the spray gun to start spraying.
Prior to use, Check compatibility by spraying a small A test patch of the adhesive is on the substrate. This product may degrade some substrates. Spray about 10-20 cm (4 inches – 8 inches) away at a 90-degree angle to the surface, applying a uniform, even coat of adhesive to obtain 80% to 100% coverage of the surface. If necessary, spray another coat of adhesive in areas that appear to need more adhesive. Spray both surfaces to be bonded, one surface vertically and the other surface horizontally. Allow the adhesive to tack off until no adhesive transfers to the knuckle when touched.
Adhere surfaces and press together with adequate pressure. A roller is recommended to apply a uniform pressure to achieve maximum strength. Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to fully cure.
If the spray tip clogs, unscrew the spray tip from the gun and clean with a solvent such as lacquer thinner or acetone. Do not use a pin on the spray tip orifice.
Canister Storage / Change Over
Turn the valve on the canister into the off position, spray out remaining adhesive left in the hose, disconnect the spray hose and gun from the canister. Reconnect the spray hose to a canister of cleaning solvent (sold separately) and spray out until the liquid is clear which indicates that the hose and gun are clean. If you choose to leave the hose and spray gun on the canister, leave the valve on the canister open. Do not disconnect the hose/gun from the canister. Close and lock the spray gun.
Special Precautions
For optimum results, store the canister above 18°C during use, but it must always be above 10°C. Allow substrates to acclimatise to normal room temperature (18°C) for 48 hours before bonding. Do not exceed the open time of the adhesive. Keep the canister off cold concrete floors during use. If adhesive is expelled wet or as a jet, the canister is too cold – move to a warm environment and allow to thoroughly acclimatise before reusing.
CAUTION
- Use only in well ventilated areas
- DO NOT thin or reactivate with solvents
- DO NOT incinerate
- DO NOT expose to extreme heat over 50°C
- Keep away from sources of ignition
- Release pressure before disconnecting hose
- Test for suitability before use
