Tapco-ThaneĀ® Sheeting and Rolls
Tapco-Thane is a polyurethane elastomer molded into sheet-form to be used in material handling. They measure 4 feet wide by 10 feet long (4' x 10'). Tapco-Thane sheets are also available in 4 feet by 50 feet (4' x 50') rolls. Tapco can cut the rolls into any 10-foot increment that you request. Standard Sheets are blue in color. Hi Rebound Sheets are black in color.
