EVA foam 65 kg/m3, 5 mm orange - 50x50 cm

Reliable base for armor and cosplay props

This orange EVA foam with a density of 65 kg/m³ and a thickness of 5 mm serves as a professional foundation for intricate cosplay armor and detailed props. Its balanced density provides excellent structural rigidity while maintaining the flexibility required for comfortable movement and complex shaping. Designed for creators, this material ensures high precision during cutting and clean, smooth edges for every project.

Key features

• Optimized density: With a density of 65 kg/m³, this EVA foam strikes a perfect balance between structural firmness and flexibility. It effectively resists mechanical deformation, ensuring that armor pieces retain their intended shape throughout long events.
• Perfect 5 mm thickness: The 5 mm profile is ideal for crafting mid-sized armor components like bracers, pauldrons, or layered plates. This thickness offers a robust feel while remaining lightweight enough to prevent unnecessary strain on finished costumes.
• Convenient format: Each 50x50 cm sheet allows for efficient template planning with minimal waste. This compact size is easy to handle, transport, and store, fitting perfectly on standard cutting mats for precise work.
• Thermal shaping: The material responds exceptionally well to heat, allowing for seamless thermoforming with a heat gun. Once heated, the EVA foam becomes highly pliable, capturing complex contours before cooling into a rigid, permanent form.
• Vibrant orange color: The uniform, high-visibility orange pigment makes it easy to trace patterns and mark cut lines. This color provides an excellent base for painting and ensures that deep scratches or surface wear remain less noticeable.

Applications

• Armor and costume building

  The 5 mm sheets serve as the standard material for constructing intermediate-scale armor parts. Due to its density, the foam can be layered to create realistic depth and impressive combat-worn textures, ensuring durability for photoshoots and conventions.

• Decorative details and ornaments

  Excellent for creating geometry-based designs, embossed runic symbols, or intricate appliques. The smooth surface allows for precise scoring and engraving, which can be further enhanced by heat-treating the foam to open up the cut lines for a deep, professional finish.

• Safe LARP weaponry

  Thanks to its elasticity and resilient nature, this foam is frequently used as a reliable cushioning layer for LARP equipment. It serves as an ideal protective wrap for the cores of swords, axes, or shields, ensuring safety during intense field combat scenarios.

To achieve the best results, use a dedicated contact adhesive to ensure strong and flexible bonds between layers. After shaping and assembly, prepare your surface for finishing using professional finishing and painting accessories to give your project a professional, long-lasting look.
