Roll Bar Padding Feedback

Post  RKUEGEL on April 12th 2011, 9:35 am

Fellow Racers...

I appreciate everyone's attention to the post regarding the SFI 45.1 roll bar padding. In order to address any questions out there, I have chosen a couple of individuals that post regularly, that I do not know personally, to participate in a "sample test" for the roll bar padding that I have for sale. They should be receiving their samples today, and should be posting any comments, good or bad, some time this week.

If anyone has any questions, comments, etc... please feel free to pm or call.

Thanks for everyone's input! Smile

Harold.....

It sounds like you have already measured your cage. Just a thought when measuring.... be sure to make note of different bar diameters of what you
want to cover. Most of the bars will be 1.5" - 1.75", but you may have a different
size bar that needs to be covered...therefore different size padding.

One size does not fit all, but most of what I stock will fit the most common of
1.5" - 1.75".

p.s. they don't make an 8' stick Razz

I'm interested, but do you have something for the 1" tubes? If you can bring enough to the bash to cover 10-15 ft of 1.625" and around 8 ft of 1", that should be enough.

Thanks,
David Willingham

Jon........

The smallest padding I have available, still staying with SFI 45.1, will fit
.875" - 1.125" size bars.

I haven't had time to really "play" with (aka "torture" Laughing ) the sample yet. But my first impression just jabbing it with a Sharpie pen cap (damn scientific hick-town testing at it's best Laughing ) is it does look to be good & dense, but still having a decent amount of memory/spring-back.

More extensive "hick-town" testing to come.....

ha ha same here....I did stick it in a vise and it seemed pretty good. I did install some similar type in both cars in the past and this seems right up there with them. I like the fact it has the SFI molded into it.
