Sound Proofing Materials for Aircraft

Aircraft sound proofing materials play a vital part in reducing the engine and wind noise that makes it difficult for passengers and pilots to communicate. At Brown Aircraft Supply, aviation soundproofing materials are available in various thicknesses, such as 3/8-inch and 5/8-inch for aluminum-backed soundproofing and 1/8-inch to 5/8-inch for traditional noise-proof insulation. If the material is to be installed in areas requiring it to be formed or shaped to fit, the style without aluminum backing is normally preferred. Either style is easy to install using neoprene contact cement.

Wool felt is another popular material used for noise reduction. Roll felts are available in thicknesses ranging from 1/16-inch to 1-inch, allowing a better fit without the need for excessive trimming. Squares are typically 36 x 36 inches, while rolls are normally 10 feet in length. Browse through our selection and see which material is best for you.
