When used as an interface in audio electronic applications, this heat-resistant, vibration-control material minimizes microphonic influence. Custom-formulated, silicone-based viscoelastic is firm, just barely "squishy," and compliant. Use as an interface between component shelf and rack, between platform and shelf, under mass-loading weight, under small desktop speakers, wherever superior vibration control or decoupling is needed. Provides superior isolation with turntable and turntable plinth applications. Effective throughout a broad range of weight loads. 1/16" (1.6mm) thick.

Optional pressure-sensitive adhesive on one side bonds well to most materials. (Adhesive can be applied to both sides by special request.)

Thin grungebuster Dots: Same as above, except 1/32" thick (.8mm). Use between constrained layer materials instead of adhesive for superior damping and wherever a slightly compliant decoupling interface is desired. Ideal as an interface between cones and component or shelf - placing a grungebuster Dot on the flat side of a cone absorbs vibration and allows the cone to work more efficiently with a little less of its own "character." Though rarely needed, all Thin grungebuster Dots are available with optional pressure-sensitive adhesive on one side (or on both sides by special request). Black grungebuster Dots are a little firmer than off-white grungebuster Dots.

Damping Sheets: Cut your own Dots, squares, gaskets, anything. Cuts easily with razor blade, hobby knife, or scissors. Heat resistant, highly flexible microphonics-absorbing/decoupling/isolation materials. Great as a decoupling interface between different materials and as a damping layer in constrained layer systems.

grungebuster: Versatile, multi-purpose damping/isolation.

dBNeutralizer: Ideal for component chassis damping and loudspeaker applications. At 140 grams per 5" x 8" sheet, this damping sheet is nearly three times heavier and vastly more effective than equivalent-size 3M Damping Sheet.

Adhesive: Damping sheets are available with optional pressure-sensitive adhesive (except GIANT dBNeutralizer). Silicone medical adhesive can also be used as a superior adhesive. Here are links to two very good adhesives:

Hollister #7730 Medical Adhesive (small spray can)
Secure II Medical Adhesive (small bottle w/brush-on applicator)

What it is: Herbie's isolation materials are proprietary silicone-based vinyl elastomers with variable compliance and firmness qualities. The materials will absorb vibration with very little pressure applied, yet will handle a lot of weight. These compliant, non-vulcanized compounds are not dependent on a precise weight load to be most effective. They are equally effective under a wide range of weight and have little or no resonant "coloration." Invented and formulated solely for audio and video applications, these proprietary materials are unsurpassed in their ability to absorb microphonic vibrations and reduce audio distortion. Materials are smudge-free and residue-free, with excellent dielectric (insulating) properties.
