Sorbothane Vibration Damping Sheet Stock 50 Duro (1/8 x 12 x 12in)

I purchased this sorbothane to fill my mechanical keyboard and absorb sound to reduce pinging. It worked perfectly! This is a great thickness and will likely work with a majority of keyboard case designs. Do not underestimate the level of quality you can get by simply filling in the open space of your keyboard. A keyboard without pinging is just so satisfying to listen to.As a piece of advice when using sorbothane, just put a piece of construction paper between the sorbothane and your PCB/case to ensure you never have any discoloration.

I had a water pump for a Coke machine set in a cabinet, and the way it vibrated when it kicked on sounded like an elephant in heat. Not really the vibe you want in a coffee shop.It works great, totally shuts down the vibration. My only issue is that over time the weight of the pump pushed its legs through the damping sheet and then it didn't really work. So basically it works great when it works, and needs replaced when it doesn't.

This is exactly what I wanted and expected. I've used a number of similar material products before. I recently got old enough to need driving glasses and wanted to be able to toss them recklessly on my dashboard.This bizarre material is like the skin of some alien ooze monster. The glasses stay put exactly where I put them, but picking them back up takes a little patience. It's a bit like the pad has grabbed any item it touches and one has to plan on a 1-2 second gentle pull. It survived on the dash of our car in an extremely hot summer area and at 9 months, it's performing perfectly. Cut it with a very sharp, new razor blade on a cardboard or paper-topped softwood backing so your blade can go fully through the material.

The sobothane comes in a sheet covered on both sides with removable clear plastic sheeting. It's remarkably challenging to cut in part because of the protective sheets - this stuff is soft and sticks, which is good and what I was hoping for. It's gummy quality allows it to seat between my speakers and their metal stands. It's exactly what I wanted, though perhaps a shade thicker than expected. I'd recommend cutting it with a razor, exacto or similarly very sharp knife. A bit pricey but does the trick.

I bought this product to place under the legs of my air compressor. The legs cut right through the material. If the legs were flat on the bottom instead of having an edge to them, the material likely would have held up for a long time. I think that for items with a flat bottom surface area, this material would work very well to isolate vibration.

I bought this pad to cushion hammer blows from a 26-oz deadblow hammer on a granite block on a workbench. Smashing things with a hammer makes a lot of noise and vibration - vibration which is transmitted through the workbench directly to the apartment below mine.WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! Yes, I am THAT neighbor. =)I had been using a bath towel folded into fourths to cushion the blows, which worked perfectly fine. This pad was a substitute for the bath towel. The pad does work, but not nearly as well as the sad-looking towel. I would say that the pad drops the "WHAM!" factor by about half. The bath towel almost totally isolates the vibration. So sad.For the price, I was expecting more magic. A 1" thick pad, or more, would probably have been a better choice for me.

This product does exactly what is claimed. I used it to isolate all of the connections for the hydronic heating system in my house which had been attached to plywood covering the utility room wall and abutting a bedroom. Even with insulation in the wall and drywall, the vibration sound was amplified by the plywood diaphragm, so I cut pieces of this foam to fit between each mount and the plywood. The sound reduction as a result of the vibration dampening was much better than I had hoped, and the material was very easy to use in this fashion. The sound on the bedroom side has been reduced to a very tolerable level. Great material for a variety of purposes.

I used this as an isolation base below a new pool pump. The pool equipment at my house is located right outside the master bedroom wall and anytime the old pump switched on the thrum was easily noticeable. It was something you could tune out if the pump was on 24/7, but distracting with each switch on. The pump was an older single speed model, so I upgraded the pump to a variable speed model and cut this pad to fit below it. The new pump has less vibration to begin with so its may not be a fair comparison. This product does seems to help. You can place your hand on the pump and feel its vibrations, but less so on the concrete pad. Certainly on the lowest two speed settings the pump is inaudible inside, which was my goal. I am not sure of this product's durability outside with pool water so I will update this if there is degradation.
