Some aircraft owners may wish to create a custom acoustic treatment for their plane due to unique shapes or due to odd sizes or perhaps just because some area is noisier than typical. For those that want to make a custom kit, we offer individual materials that may be ordered separately.
| 1. | Isolators: Keep the vibration from ever getting into the structure. | |
| 2. | Dampers: Once the vibration is in the structure, try and reduce the amount of vibration with dampers. | |
| 3. | Barriers: These block the noise from entering the cabin. Like a boat, it is better to keep the water out, than have to deal with it once it gets in. | |
| 4. | Absorbers: The last line of defense. Once noise gets inside the aircraft, absorbers soak it up. Placed on the inside as upholstery, they also reduce reflected noise, (echoes). |
Our materials all pass FAR 25.853(A) - 12 second vertical burn.
If you'd like samples of these materials along with some more information about making your own kit, you may order one of our catalogs.
