Buffalo Felt...

I work at UPS and seen a roll of this stuff come through. It was 1 1/4" thick and it was very dense. I squeezed it to see how dense and it only shrunk to an inch in thickness.

Looks like they have 2'x4' sheets and various thicknesses. Anyone heard of it?

How do you think it would perform against something like acoustical cotton or 703?

Looks interesting. Got any idea of the cost? The weight/density sounds like it might work. Ask Ethan, he knows about the properties of lots of things like this.

I'm waiting to hear back from them regarding some pricing info...

Density range according to the link runs between 24-50 PCF; normal usable range of densities for most acoustic materials runs 2.5 to maybe 8 PCF.

Apparently this stuff has about the same density as plywood. Doubt it'd be much good for anything except MAYBE supporting some sort of floated floor, if that... Steve
