The TRUFAST Thermal-Grip® IP40D and IP50D tools are high-performance insulation fastening systems designed for rapid attachment of rigid insulation to concrete and masonry wall assemblies. Built for commercial wall applications, these gas-actuated fastening tools eliminate the need for pre-drilling, helping contractors install continuous insulation faster and more efficiently.

Fast, Efficient Insulation Attachment: The Thermal-Grip® fastening system is engineered for exterior wall insulation installations on:

• Concrete walls
• CMU block
• Masonry substrates
• Tilt-up concrete walls
• Precast wall systems

With a simple point-and-shoot operation, the IP40D and IP50D dramatically reduce labor time compared to traditional drilled fastening methods.

IP40D Insulation Fastening Tool (A-W-IP400)

• IP40D Low-to-mid PSI masonry CMU block and masonry 1″ to 4″
• The IP40D is optimized for lower-density masonry applications, while the IP50D delivers additional driving power for harder concrete substrates.
• Includes: two batteries, a charger, safety glasses, and a case.
• Use the Thermal-Grip Insulation Pins for steel, wood, or concrete
• Fuel Cell not included, can be purchased separately

IP50D Insulation Fastening Tool (A-W-IP500)

• IP50D Mid-to-high PSI concrete Dense concrete walls 1.5″ to 6.”
• The IP50D delivers additional driving power for harder concrete substrates, while the IP40D is optimized for lower-density masonry applications.
• Includes: two batteries, a charger, safety glasses, and a case.
• Use the Thermal-Grip Insulation Pins for steel, wood, or concrete
• Fuel Cell not included, can be purchased separately

Key Features

• No pre-drilling required
• Rapid point-and-shoot installation
• Attaches rigid insulation and mineral wool
• Lithium-ion battery powered
• Uses a 165mm fuel cell system
• Compatible with Thermal-Grip® insulation pins
