FAQs

How many inserts come in this pack?

This is a twin pack, containing two foam inserts.

What is the thickness of the foam?

The yellow variant is 50mm thick.

Can I cut the foam with scissors?

While possible for very small adjustments, a sharp utility knife or foam cutter is recommended for clean, precise cuts.

Is the foam suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the foam is UV-resistant and water-resistant, making it suitable for various conditions, though prolonged direct exposure to harsh weather is not recommended.

What are the dimensions of the insert?

Is the foam recyclable?

Yes, the polyethylene foam used is recyclable.

Will this foam protect against heavy impacts?

The foam provides excellent impact absorption for typical tool handling and transport, protecting against drops and bumps within the toolbox.

Troubleshooting

Foam is difficult to cut cleanly.

Ensure you are using a sharp, dedicated foam cutting knife or utility blade. Make multiple shallow passes rather than one deep cut. Ensure the foam is at room temperature.

Tool doesn't fit snugly after cutting.

Carefully peel additional thin layers of foam. For slight adjustments, you can use fine-grit sandpaper lightly on the edges of the cutout.

Foam appears dusty after cutting.

This is normal. Wipe down the cut surfaces and the surrounding area with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove any foam debris.
