Zusammenfassung:A dispenser for liquid foam which rapidly expands and hardens on exposure to air has a shaped head (21, 27, 28) to fit laterally over a pipe (P, P ) and to be moved along it. The foam issues into this head and is guided by it into an insulating jacket around the pipe. There are means (216) for locating the head correctly with respect to the pipe and means (31) for allowing the head to negotiate pipe joints and supports. The head may be interchangeable with others to cater for different pipe sizes, and each head may swivel with respect to the rest of the dispenser for ease of application. The foam feed may be automated to suit the pipe size and speed of traverse.
