Ultra-Conformable Polyurethane Foam Sheets and Strips
Commonly called memory foam and Confor, these sheets and strips have the best cushioning qualities of all the foam we offer. They take several seconds to recover from compression, but maintain their resiliency over time. These sheets and strips are widely used in packaging applications to absorb shock and damp vibration; they are also found in seat cushions. Foam has open-cell construction, which allows water, air, and gases to be absorbed.

Tool-Organizing Foam
Know at a glance when a tool is missing from a toolbox with this dual-color foam. Using your tools as a template, cut shapes out of the adhesive-backed piece of foam with a utility knife, then adhere it to the uncut piece. When someone removes a tool, the uncut sheet becomes visible to indicate the open space. Foam has closed-cell construction, which restricts water, air, and gases from being absorbed.

With a thin metal backing, these sheets are good for use in bumpers, wear pads, machinery mounts, and other applications where some structural support is needed. Its polyurethane material combines the shock absorbing qualities of rubber with the tear resistance of plastic. It can be easily bent to shape. Use a band saw or water jet to cut sheets as needed. You can also use laser cutting to shape sheets for better precision. The dimensions shown are for the polyurethane: the metal backing may be slightly larger.

Heavy Duty Plastic Trim
This trim has a metal core for added strength and stability. Made of plastic, it's also chemical resistant. Use it to protect the edges of panels, boards, signs, and mirrors from impact. Push this trim onto an edge and its tabs grip the edge for a tight hold. All are flexible so it can bend along a gradual curve. This trim has a hard rating to withstand high levels of impact. It's nonmarking and can be used outdoors. Meets FMVSS-302 for Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for flammability.

Fiberglass Pipe Insulation
This common insulation material is typically used on hot and cold water lines and in process piping. To use outdoors, add metal jacketing.
Sheets/strips with foil facing reflect heat away from pipe. The foil facing is also known as FSK. Seal with reinforced HVAC tape (sold separately).
Sheets/strips with kraft paper facing have an all-service jacket (ASJ) made of kraft paper. Seal with reinforced insulation tape (sold separately).

Dock Door Draft Seals
Keep drafty dock areas warm. These seals block drafts between dock door seals and levelers. They’re filled with foam, so you can squish them into gaps for a tight seal. The weighted base will keep them in place. Use the handle to pull them out of gaps and carry them.
Aramid High-Temperature Sleeving
A blend of Aramid and fiberglass gives this sleeving excellent abrasion resistance, as well as resistance to acids and alkalies. It can withstand temperatures up to 650° F. Because this sleeving is non-expandable, it does not stretch, so it’s best for applications where you know the exact diameter of the items you need to protect.
