TUFCOTE™ XL Acoustic Foam

0.8 Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) to help you meet your system requirements

Introducing TUFCOTE™ XL Acoustic Foam

TUFCOTE™ XL Acoustic Foam is the latest innovation in the E-A-R™ branded portfolio of acoustic products. TUFCOTE™ XL acoustic foam is manufactured with an optimized cellular construction to create a new material capable of achieving a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of 0.8 at 1-inch thickness. Available with an aluminized or black surface, this material can also protect fragile components from heat sources within the equipment.

The new TUFCOTE XL acoustic foams reach 0.8 NRC values at 1-inch thickness. The acoustic absorber features a unique PET facing on a polyurethane foam to accentuate absorption for very high NRC value. The XL foam meets HF-1 flame rating and the requirements of UL2200.

World Class Manufacturing

Aearo Technologies LLC's proprietary manufacturing process for TUFCOTE XL acoustic foams creates a superiorly constructed product designed specifically for power generation enclosures. Our thin sheet casting process chemically bonds the input materials (PSA/foam/surface). Unlike other urethane foams that are laminated, TUFCOTE foam does not delaminate or separate. This is particularly important in high air flow areas of the enclosure or when installed over head of a heat source such as an engine.

The thin sheet casting process additionally allows Aearo Technologies LLC to manufacture TUFCOTE XL foams efficiently and economically. Together with integrated parts fabrication, maximized shipping programs and the highest ISO quality standards, it is no surprise that Aearo is a leading supplier to power generation OEMs.
