Engineering felt is a unique engineering material. The properties of engineering felt can be controlled to produce different felt with characteristics ranging from soft, supple padding to a hard dense felt for polishing glass and metal.

At the proper density, engineering felt can seal in lubricants, as well as seal out contamination; engineering felt can act as a vibration and sound deadening material; felt is used for lubrication metering, wicking, wiping packing and insulating and felt is also ideal for a wide range of controlled filtering applications.

Engineering felt is primarily used in industrial situations where specific tolerance, thickness and quality are required. Engineering felt ranges in thickness from 1.6mm to 25.4mm and is natural (off white) in colour. According to the thickness and grade, engineering felt can be cut into coils of any width and length. All grades of engineering felt can be supplied as washers or wads cut to your requirements. Engineering felts are also available with self-adhesive backing and can be supplied to just about any size and/or shape (see Self adhesive felts).
