Polyurethane Thermal Column Bearing Blocks
Product Description
JP Series Column-Bearing Blocks are a high density, high-compressive-strength polyurethane foam that is installed between the concrete foundation and steel columns. The blocks provide a thermal break between the building interior and the supporting soils below as specified by architects and engineering professionals. We have been manufacturing blocks for this application for over 10 years.
Each product in the JP Series is named for its design compressive strength at 2% deflection: JP-1000 (1000 psi) JP-1500 (1500 psi) JP-1800 (1800 psi)
Easy Installation
JP Series Column-Bearing Blocks are supplied cut-to-size with pre-drilled anchor bolt holes available per customer specifications.
