Quick Selection Checklist
- What’s the problem? Constant vibration/noise → choose Squares or Pad. Impact/scuffs → pick Adhesive Foam.
- Surface type: Smooth substrates are best for adhesion (clean before applying).
- Load/footprint: Heavier machines benefit from Squares; long runs (pipes/ducts) suit Pad.
- Cut/shape: Need to trim around edges or pipes? Choose Pad or Adhesive Foam.
- Environment: For outdoor/utility areas, ensure the substrate is dry and clean before install.
Practical Tips for Better Results
- Level & clean the area first to maximise contact and performance.
- For washers/dryers, centre each foot on an Anti-Vibration Square.
- When using the Pad roll, dry-fit first, then glue in place per surface prep notes.
- Use Adhesive Foam on door-strike zones or tight garage pillars to reduce accidental dings.
FAQs — Surface Protection
Will this stop my washing machine “walking” across the floor?
Anti-Vibration Squares help reduce movement and noise by absorbing vibration at the feet; check machine levelling too.
Can I cut the pad or foam to size?
Yes—both the Pad (roll) and Adhesive Foam are designed to be trimmed to suit and, in the case of the Pad, glued to floors or substrates where needed.
Will adhesive foam stick to concrete?
It’s intended for smooth, clean surfaces like concrete, timber and steel; prep is essential for best adhesion.
Is this suitable for air-conditioner units and piping?
Yes—the Pad is ideal under condensers and along ducting or pipes to reduce rattle and protect surfaces.
