I want to use this material on my boat as a cover. Would it be strong enough to sit on a 1/2 inch piece?

You could make the seat of a chair with a 1/4" piece and like a bench with a 1/2" piece, it's not real flexible in less than 24" lengths. To get rid of the slick surface you'd have to sand it, 100 grit would work great with just a DA over it a few times.

I have used this jig on 1/2" material without blocks. There was still about a 1/16 of an inch left in the jig clamp that could be tightened. So, I would say that 1/2" material is about as small as one can go without blocks.

Noooooo! You will be relying on styrofoam for support. there is a significant load when rowing. My boat has thick aluminum supports and these inserts go in those supports to keep metal from metal contact.

It's maybe 3/4", Id plan for 1/2" though to be safe since anything hitting the fabric from the backside is going to distort it.

The foam should work fine. You may want to look into marine grade vinyl for the covers as boat cushions tend to have excessive sun and (salt) water exposure.

sorry for the delayed response. We have used one like this for our15' rib in the ocean. We bought this for the same boat for lake use. I assume it will hold!

might, I put it on a 17 ft center console v hull and it was a little too large buy works just the same. The cover was of excellent quality and I will buy another for one of my other boats when I finish the overhaul of this particular boat. I thought for the money it was one of the better covers I've seen.

The size will fill fit a seat post for a boat. Heavy duty clamp will not fall off, I Been at 60 mph no issue.

The product is about 1/8 inch thick - I have used it under chairs and heavy end tables. I am about to buy more. If you think 1/8 inch is not too thick I am sure it will work fine. It is much thicker than just thin felt cloth. Hope this helps. :-)

Ir will hold it up, my concern would be is the glass strong enough to keep from breaking. I would hesitate to use it on anything thinner than 1/2" and wouldn't put anything heavy on it.

Yes it will work with 1/2" material, you will have to adjust the drill stop and some of the screw head will be out on drilled piece

I dont remember off hand it was real thin but it would be perfect for a john boat no bigger than 15' or a jet ski. I bought it with intention of using on a trailer for a 24' deck boat. I noticed this carpet was to then and returned it for a full refund.

this is good if you keep your boat on the trailer, and have some kind of support under it ribs etc. will not work well as a mooring cover due to the need to be straped into place.

I doubt it. Check into the Taylor Made Anchor Shade. The shade needs to have a solid center post and shade supports. The Wondershade is great for "terra firma" but not on a boat.

This cover is designed to be strapped to a trailer. If you are leaving your boat in the water, I'm not sure it would work. Also, the cover does not go very far down the side of the boat. It's a nice cover for the price, but may not work for everyone.

I installed on my boat to support a bench seat. We had two people 200lb + each sitting with no issues.

I used it on the bottom of my aluminum pram (boat) so it would protect it and slide over rocks. It is slippery and you could add sand in my opinion for traction. Good luck
