NEW! JM-Branded PowerBlankets®!

We’re excited to share new JM-branded PowerBlankets®—designed to keep canisters warm and performing at their best during cold-weather applications. These heated wraps bring canisters to a preset temperature, ensuring optimal adhesive performance.

JM Powerblanket

Cold temperatures can significantly impact canister adhesives like JM Two-Part Urethane Insulation Adhesive and JM All Season Sprayable Bonding Adhesive. To ensure proper mixing, coverage, and overall performance, canisters must be maintained at ~70°F (21°C) before and during use.

When ambient temperatures are between 40°–70°F, we recommend:

  1. Using a JM-branded PowerBlanket®, heated wrap, or insulated box to maintain ideal temperature
  2. Allowing at least 36 hours to warm canisters stored below 70°F
  3. Reviewing product data sheets for full temperature guidelines
  4. Following proper handling, agitation, and setup instructions for best results
  5. Asking your REP if you have any questions!

Please refer to product installation guidelines for more information:

JM-branded PowerBlankets® are stock and ready for immediate delivery! Keep your projects moving this Winter!
