Heatshield Products’ Superior Car Sound Deadening Material
Car sound deadening material is finally available in a high-performance, lightweight insulation product. Heatshield Products’ db Armor™ is a superior automotive sound deadening product that raises the bar in the industry. It is thinner and lighter than comparative products and delivers triple the sound deadening performance!
Addressing one of the biggest compromises that car builders face when adding sound deadening material for cars, db Armor™ is 20 percent lighter than comparable sound deadening products.
Lightweight Car Sound Proofing
Heatshield Products has accomplished weight reduction while improving car sound deadening capability, delivering three times the car sound proofing performance of similar products. The db Armor™ is even one and a half times more effective than the highest-rated sound deadening products on the market!
At only a .052-inch (6-millimeter) thickness, db Armor™ can be applied in even the tightest spaces, and it can adhere to steel, aluminum, finished fiberglass, and plastic. db Armor™ acoustical energy suppression capabilities rival that of standard sound-barrier materials.
How Does Sound Deadening Work in Cars?
Car sound proofing is achieved by placing a damping material over metal surfaces (particularly the doors, floor, trunk, and roof) to absorb sound vibrations and thus reduce road noise. However, the mistake some manufacturers make is to add thickness to the wrong component of the material, which only adds unnecessary weight.
Unlike some companies that have decided to increase the thickness of their butyl layer, we have shrunk ours and increased the thickness of the foil (which is what dampens the sound waves). Increasing butyl thickness increases sound dampening weight in the car, which may hurt performance. What may sound great from a supply factory overseas and in a sales pitch is only weighing down your vehicle and not performing like it is advertised. For high-quality automotive sound proofing, choose Heatshield Products.
