EVA foam 65 kg/m3, 5 mm purple - 100x50 cm

A versatile foundation for advanced armor and prop building

This high-quality EVA foam with a density of 65 kg/m³ is the essential material for every cosplay project and LARP gear construction. Measuring 5 mm in thickness, it offers the perfect balance between structural rigidity and thermal flexibility. Its vibrant purple color and smooth surface finish allow for precise detailing and professional-grade results in any workshop.

Key features

• Optimal density: With a density of 65 kg/m³, this EVA foam provides excellent structural integrity, ensuring that armor pieces retain their shape while remaining lightweight for long-duration wear.
• Perfect thickness: The 5 mm profile is ideal for crafting mid-sized armor components such as bracers, pauldrons, or decorative plating, providing stability without adding unnecessary bulk.
• Thermal molding: The material exhibits high susceptibility to heat, allowing it to become exceptionally pliable under an heat gun for custom shaping and permanent, complex 3D forms.
• Smooth surface: A uniform, closed-cell structure minimizes surface porosity, which significantly reduces the amount of primer needed and ensures a flawless finish when applying acrylic paints.
• Generous format: The 100x50 cm sheet provides ample surface area for large patterns, allowing for efficient template layout and reducing the need for visible seams in large armor sections.

Applications

• Armor and costume construction

  The 5 mm thickness is the industry standard for creating robust breastplates, gauntlets, and leg guards. The dense structure ensures these pieces remain durable during intense LARP events while maintaining a realistic aesthetic profile.

• Prop and weapon crafting

  This foam serves as an excellent base for building swords, shields, and sci-fi blasters. It is easy to cut and shape, and its internal density makes it a perfect substrate for supporting rigid structural cores.

• Intricate detailing

  The material is ideal for layering and creating relief textures. Builders can easily stack smaller cutouts on larger surfaces to add complex geometric details, crests, or decorative borders to any cosplay project.
