Foam / dense foam liner for road cases?
« on: March 18, 2014, 09:02:05 PM »

Does anyone know where to get the dense foam like what is found in EWI cases and trunks. The soft stuff is easy to find but im having trouble finding the dense stuff.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I got some from an electronics supplier, I think digiKey, but there is also allied and jameco. Search for electronics packaging foam. I alternate the dense pink stuff with the soft for added cushin.

seems like they have some super dense stuff and it can be black. I checked out the "Multi/Rebonded-Mixed Foam" Section

Maybe the foam is terriffic, but I'd be wary of companies with such poor math skills  ;-)

FULL SHEET          82" x 76"   
HALF SHEET          82" x 36"   
QUARTER SHEET   82" x 24"

I thought about ordering some foam from one of the online resellers.

I ended up holding the order when they couldn't tell me what type of foam the order would be packed in.

I get my good foam from penn elcom. Pretty pricey and you have to get setup to buy it but it works...
