Upholstery Foam High Density Firm Foam Soft Support (Chair Cushion, Wheelchair Seat Cushion)
Category: foamrush 5 inch
High-density foam is known for its impressive compression rate of 44 lbs, offering the perfect balance of cushioning and stiffness. Its soft yet firm texture provides robust support, ensuring individuals can sit on it without significant compression. Compression, rather than density, is the key determinant of firmness. To avoid a cushion that is as hard as a rock or a mattress that sinks when sat upon, it is crucial to consider the compression or ILD (Indentation Load Deflection) number. Compression refers to the number of pounds required to compress a piece of foam by 25% and have it bounce back to its original thickness. For instance, a 4-inch thick foam piece that necessitates 33 lbs to compress it by 1 inch and return to its full 4-inch height has a 33 lb. compression rating or ILD.
Regarding the purchase of foam sheets, it is essential to note that they are sold per sheet, not per yard. When opening the package, it is advised to use a ball-point pen or a pencil rather than a box cutter, as this will help prevent any accidental cuts or tears in the foam. Start by making a small incision and then break it from there.
Medium-density foam is commonly used for its firm yet relaxable cushioning properties. Its high-quality compression and material ensure its longevity, even when subjected to heavy weight. It's important to note that a 50% restocking fee may apply on returned items.
Foamrush's foam is certified for the highest quality, with a density of 1.8, a compression rating of 44 ILD, and a 100% recovery rate. This foam is perfect for revitalizing worn-out chairs, sofas, cushions, and other high-density replacement needs. Its unique formulation provides the ideal balance of support, comfort, and durability. The high-density firm foam is designed for heavy traffic and high-use applications, with a lifespan of 7-12 years.
Foamrush's foam is Certipur-US certified, ensuring quality assurance and safety for various home projects. Its versatility allows for customization, from repairing worn-down chairs to creating custom cushions for patio furniture, ottomans, headboards, and even carrying cases for delicate items.
Customizing Foamrush's foam is a breeze, as it can be easily worked with using common slicing devices. Edges can be trimmed, and layers can be stacked for additional thickness to meet specific needs. The foam can also be glued together to create wider pieces or layered for thicker cushions.
When receiving the foam, it's important to open the package immediately and exercise caution, avoiding the use of sharp tools that may cut or tear the material. Once removed from the shipping box, the foam should be unrolled to allow it to relax and regain its intended shape and properties.
