BASE ACOUSTIC SOUND WAVE 15 Acoustic Foam, Thickness 15mm, Sheet 750 × 1000 mm

Description

BASE ACOUSTIC SOUND WAVE 15 — self-adhesive acoustic foam Ultimate with a thickness of 15 mm, sheet 750 × 1000 mm (0.75 m²), комплект includes 1 sheet. This is a sound-absorbing layer of noise insulation: it is glued over vibration insulation or onto the back side of door cards, plastic interior and trunk trim panels, and inside speaker enclosures; it does not damp metal vibration. It differs from the second material in the range — BASE ACOUSTIC SOUND LINE 5 — by thickness (15 mm versus 5 mm) and the front surface: in Sound Wave it is wavy, with “bumps”, in Sound Line it is flat; the reverse side on both is flat, with an adhesive layer under a protective film.

How Sound Wave 15 and Sound Line 5 differ

What 15 mm acoustic foam is used for

• Door cards. The sheet is glued to the inner side of the door trim. In reviews, buyers write that after this the cabin became quieter and the music started playing noticeably better.
• Audio. The foam is placed inside speaker enclosures and DIY acoustic constructions: according to buyers, extra noises disappear and the sound becomes cleaner.
• Plastic interior and trunk panels. A foam layer on the back side of the trim fills the gap between the plastic and the body, so the panel and clips rattle less. You can cut strips from the sheet and cover individual joints and mounting points with them.

How to combine it with other layers

Acoustic foam works as a second layer. First, vibration insulation is glued to the metal — it reduces vibration of thin panels, and it is rolled down with a rolling roller. The foam is laid over it or onto the trim itself. The joints of plastic parts where squeaks appear are covered with anti-squeak. This order gives a better result than one thick material for everything. There are no ready-made “for the whole car” kits: the material is sold in sheets, and for each area it is cut out separately.

What characteristics BASE ACOUSTIC SOUND WAVE 15 has

• Thickness — 15 mm.
• Sheet size — 750 × 1000 mm, i.e. 0.75 m² of material.
• Surface — wavy relief on the front side.
• Installation type — self-adhesive, no glue needed.
• Package contents — 1 sheet.
• Manufacturer — Ultimate.

How many sheets are needed and how to stick it

One sheet covers 0.75 m². Measure the area of the parts you plan to cover, divide by 0.75 and add a small allowance for trimming along the contour: trims have cutouts for handles, speakers, and fasteners. The product is universal, the shape for a specific part is cut on site with a sharp knife or scissors.

Before installation, the surface is cleaned of dust and degreased; it must be dry. It is better to remove the protective film gradually, pressing the sheet by hand over the entire area — this way it will lay evenly and won’t form bubbles. After that, the sheet should be rolled with a roller so that it sits tightly over the whole area. Make sure the foam does not prevent the clips and retainers of the trim from snapping into place: 15 mm is a noticeable thickness, and where there is little space between the trim and the body, the trim may not close. For such places, the thinner ULTIMATE SQL 5 mm sheet of the same 75 × 100 cm format is suitable.

What other 75 × 100 cm sheets are available in the catalog

In the thermal insulation section there are other 75 × 100 cm sheets with a thickness of 15 mm: the sealing material Sound Absorber 15 mm, the sound-absorbing sheet ULTIMATE SQL А 15NET, and the non-flammable sheet SQL NF 15 — in case your task requires a material specifically marked “non-flammable”. The entire range for cabin quietness is collected in the car noise and vibration insulation section.
