tubedude,

I think I have a few sheets left over from a project. Unfortunately I am not home and will not be home until the 2-13-2004.

If you still need some let me know and I will see how many panels I have left. Be happy to send to you for cost plus shipping.

That's the smallest lot you can get?
They come on bundles here, (bags really) of 20 to the bag. That's the smallest lot I can get, but, the stuffs pretty heavy, and it has a large girth, it costs a lot to ship.
 
I guarantee that you can get it in any major city. You don’t have to buy it from Owens Corning. Owens Corning won’t even bother talking to you unless you’re buying a truckload.
 
Call Knauf and find their local distributor. They make the same product.

Shipping a bag of 2" RFSB is gonna cost a ton of money. It comes in a bag 2' x2' x4' long.

How close are you to Cinncinati or other large industrial centers? 3lb density RFSB is used a lot in industrial apps so somebody out there should have a stock of it.

I had to make a lot of calls in Seattle, but I finally got hooked up by talking to the Knauf rep for the NW.

2" should run about $1.25/SQUARE FOOT.
 
David- keep me posted on it, in the meantime I'm going to double up my efforts and see what I can find locally. Never looked for the Knauf stuff.
Thanks dudes!
 
Yah, look in the unexpected places. I finally found med-density board locally at a Fireplace/Insert install shop! (They also had a batch of stainless perf metal wall units left over from some theater gig they did they wanted to unload when I told them what the board was for.
Much later I ran across an industrial foam insulation shop that has fiber board.
 
C7's right.
It cost $1.25/sq.ft. So that's what... 10 bucks a sheet?

Talk to some AC installers too. They use ridgid fiberglass thats pretty dense.. and 1-2 inches thick for the supply and return air ducts comming right off the A/C unit.

Its foil backed, but you could make it work. This stuff comes in 4'x8' sheets! Its a little cheaper too. Just ask the supplier for the acoustic specs. Its actually pretty good stuff.

If ALL else fails; Ethan Winer sells and ships what you're looking for on his web-site.
 
C7-

Where do you buy 703 in Cincinnati? I don't think I'd call it an industrial center at all....

I'm in WA state. You gotta call OC or Knauf and find out who their distibutors are out there. They gotta be peddling the their because it's a common material used in construction in any big metro area.

Cincy used to be industrialized. I guess those jobs went somewhere else.
