We are restoring a bass boat. Will the 2# foam be adequate or will compression be a problem on the portion that will be directly under the walk thru?

I'm not sure if i fully understand your question but I used this foam to add floatation that I removed when rebuilding my boat deck and a few tips for someone using it for that would be figure out the weight of the boat and how much foam u will need for flotation and then figure out the cubic ft of were u are filling the 2 gallons of foam do not cover as much area as u may think and it does generate some heat well it expands and if u are pouring it into the deck u will want a hole for air and extra foam to escape out I had my boat tilted forward so well it was liquid it ran to the front and slowly expanded to the back as a kept pouring there are also different grade of foam that may have more structural integrity if u are using it to strengthen a weak spot but You will need more foam because it doesn't expand as much per gallon when I finished my boat I ended up not being able to fill everything I would of liked to because of cost and ended up only using enough to float the weight of the boat if it sank I later talked to some one that does spray installation for homes who told me he could of done the whole inside of the boat for free with what he has left after spraying a home the only problem would have been it may not of been as oil/ water resistant as this product but he did say it was a closed cell 2 part expandable foam and really shouldn't of been that different so now I'm kinda kicking myself for not doing it I also wished that I added regular foam blocks I had from docks I had built to use as a filler then poured the foam around them so I wouldn't of needed so much pour foam hope this helps

I've been using it pretty heavily and I don't think that will happen. The spring is plenty stiff and the foam does not have a slick surface, so even if it compresses over time it should continue to hang on.

I have a fiberglass bass boat that we use this ladder for. We hook it on the side where the resting pads touch the side of the boat and it works just fine. When we are done playing I fold it up and put it under the seat. Just make sure you have a skinny area on the boat where the hooks will fit over it

This foam definitely reduced our sound leakage. We used it to wrap an amp box to block sounds releasing and allows us to Mic the amp.

Compression. I inserted my piece of aquarium tubing (don't have it handy for measuring right now) and tightened down the end. Haven't had any leakage problems.

its designed to be uncompressed. Maybe its 1/4" thick. I used it to fill space between a heat shield and the car. I'd look at the heat shield material from DEI

Get hot enough to go thru the foam but if you keep steady movement it will not damage the foam. It will work for the 3 inch. More than that is dicey, probably need more than one pass. Hope this help.

It probably could be modified. It has a covering that has a zips up around the outside and to be honest I haven't looked inside to know. I think worst case scenario is that the covering would be loose around the foam instead of tight like it is when it comes shipped to you.

I think it's about the same quality. I would not buy it thinking it will outlast the OEM part. I've had my sander over 10 years. Never a foam decay problem. Velcro wore out every time due to lots of use.

The product works beautifully when you follow the instructions. Also make sure there is nothing blocking the surface where the cracks run buy when seal the crack before filling the foam. Otherwise you'll have problem with the foam filling the cracks.

There is about 1/4 - 1/2" of compression. I'd suggest you get the 11-18. If you adjust it to 11 1/4" it should be about right.

Compressed something. It's not like in the olden days, maple, pine etc. You wouldn't find anything this cheap made of real wood. I like it, a little flimsy, I added wood support bars to the back.

Probably just about any foam will help absorb the vibrations from the sewing machine, but if the machine loses firm contact with the table or floor, it might become unstable and affect the sewing.

The foam is not real thick, but if anyone had problems with it, I would suggest wearing some weight lifting gloves. I use no gloves, but put a little chalk on my hands when using it. In general my philosophy is that the less padding the better, which I also apply to shoes for walking, running, and strength training.

My B&W; 601's weigh in at 6.1 kilos (13.4 lb). They do not make a dent in the foam. I'm sure you could could a few pounds heaver before any compression.

No, you're going to need mass to do any soundproofing. The foam will only absorb sound inside the room, but there will still be a lot of sound leakage to your neighbors. Hope this helps

I would guess the foam would maintain its functionality, but it would be hard to get that perfect factory edge. May end up fraying around the uneven edges.
