Dimensions

Our soft felts are manufactured at 1830mm widths (72”) and are available in various roll lengths governed by the material thickness.

Additional information

Soft felts are not designed to be exposed to areas of high friction or compression.

They exhibit the highest degree of stretch of any felt and can be easily damaged or destroyed by mechanical pulling and abrasion.

They are manufactured to provide economical sealing and cushioning solutions in near static environments.
