Powerblanket’s 5'x9' ground thawing heated blankets provide a fast, reliable solution for thawing frozen ground, keeping vehicle and equipment engines warm, and melting dangerous ice dams. Unlike typical concrete curing blankets, Powerblanket ground thaw blankets feature higher watt density and deliver uniform, full-coverage heat across the entire surface—eliminating hot and cold spots and ensuring efficient, even thawing.

These heavy-duty blankets are specifically designed to reduce downtime and eliminate the hassle of frozen ground during winter. They heat up to a preset of 150°F ±10°F (65°C ±5°C), quickly melting snow and ice from roofs, walkways, and construction areas. When paired with a thermostatic controller, they offer even greater heat control for a variety of outdoor and industrial applications.

Ground thawing blankets are available in three different thermal rating classes:
  • Powerblanket - designed for standard heating applications, this model features a rugged vinyl shell and safely raises material temperatures as high as 145°F. It can operate in temperatures as low as -20°F.
  • Powerblanket Xtreme - built for harsh climates, this version also includes a rugged vinyl shell and safely raises material temperatures up to 145°F, functioning effectively in temperatures as low as -50°F.
  • ThawPro - professional-grade blankets engineered with the highest power density for rapid, deep thawing—melting 12–18 inches of frozen ground every 24 hours (depending on soil type, ambient temperature, and moisture). Designed for rugged jobsite use, they maintain a consistent 150°F surface temperature, provide uniform heat without hot spots, and withstand heavy foot traffic and extreme winter conditions.

All Powerblanket ground thawing blankets come in an insulated, water-resistant design for long-term durability and reliability. They are ETL certified to UL, CSA, and CE safety standards, ensuring safe and consistent performance in demanding environments.

    Curing Epoxy Resins

    Curing epoxy resins with Powerblanket is easy and efficient! Most epoxy resin and hardener combinations require heat in order to cure because ambient temperatures are often not high enough. If the epoxy resins are not heated evenly or to the proper temperature, their chemical, mechanical, and heat resistance properties may become compromised. In fact, some epoxy resins require heating in steps to prevent overheating from exothermic reactions.

    Here's How Powerblanket Can Make Your Epoxy Curing Process Easier:

    Ground Thawing Blankets Used For Curing Epoxy and Resin

    Using Powerblanket curing blankets for epoxy resins ensures even heating for optimal curing. Heat is critical for proper curing since ambient temperatures may not suffice. Uneven heat can compromise the properties of the epoxy. Therefore, Powerblanket provides uniform heat for consistent curing, preventing overheating and enhancing durability.

    Benefits of using these blankets for epoxy curing:

    * Maintain optimal resin temperatures with even heat spreading.
    * Preheat molds efficiently before resin application.
    * Heat critical materials safely, preventing damage and ensuring quality results.
