    Crack-Resistant Rigid Polyimide Insulation Sheets

    Even when subjected to heavy compression, these rigid polyimide sheets won't crack. To use outdoors, add metal jacketing.
    12 lb/ft³ Density
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Insulation Sheets. Crack-Resistant Rigid Polyimide Insulation Sheets.
    Sheets with a density of 12 lb/ft3 are easier to cut than denser polyimide insulation sheets, which makes them good for die-punching applications. They are not, however, good for machining.
