Padding
+ Click For Details
A well-finished mount has no rough edges and is padded where it comes into contact with the object. Padding requirements vary considerably according to the nature and condition of the objects, so we offer a range of materials including felt in sheet or tape form, sueded polyethylene in sheet, Teflon and polyolefin tubings.
All are either adhesive-backed or heat-shrinkable for ease of use.

Polyolefin 2:1 Heat-shrink Tubing
+ Click For Details
What Brass Rod sizes go with what size 2:1 Polyolefin Heat-shrink??
This clear flexible tubing is an ideal padding material for brass rod. It shrinks quickly and evenly with a heat gun at temperatures of 275°F/135°C. When freely recovered it will reduce down to 50% of its original inside diameter. Our polyolefin tubing is non-flame-retardant because of potential off-gassing problems associated with flame-retardant materials.
Sold in 12" lengths, 6 lengths per pack.
